MLB Daily Grind Down June 6th Day Games

The RotoGrinders MLB Grind Down article will give you an in-depth analysis into the MLB schedule. This article will break down the numbers for every single game and give you analysis on which trends you can exploit.
While matchups are a major factor in daily fantasy baseball, there are plenty of other factors to consider such as injuries, weather, and salaries. The analysis should point you in the right direction, but it is still up to you to decipher the information and make your own selections. No sport has more variance than baseball. The best choice is not always the right choice but following the trends will win you money over time. (any fp listed uses Fanduel’s scoring system)
If you are concerned about these games then you are a sicko who cannot get enough action. With only two games going, these games will be ignored by most sites and only offered in H2Hs and smaller league formats that will be risky endeavors because you will not be able to know who will be playing later. If you play like this then you need help but feel free to take some of all day H2Hs that I have posted. I need the action!!!!!
Tampa Bay at Detroit

Las Vegas
- OU 9
- Favored DET -177
Pitchers
- Home Max Scherzer is awesome. The whole reason you would play these formats is to get him in your LU. Target
- Away Roberto Hernandez sucks. Don’t use him. Avoid
Batters
- Home The only question you need to ask yourself is can I play some of these DET bats twice. Everyone bats well at home but I think if you chose to play these formats you are going to see a ton of overlay in the early start bats.
- Away If you are playing the fade then Kelly Johnson is 4-13 with 2 2Bs versus Max. James Loney has been hot over the last 7 days and has pop.
Baltimore at Houston
| Baltimore | Houston | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minute Maid Park | 2:10 PM | ||||||
| Miguel Gonzalez – (2-2), 4.33 ERA, 6.67 K/9, 1.333 WHIP | Bud Norris – (5-4), 3.39 ERA, 5.74 K/9, 1.478 WHIP | ||||||
| PvB | (2-6 H/AB) 0.333 BA-A, 33.33 K%, 1 OPS-A | PvB | (1-11 H/AB) 0.091 BA-A, 27.27 K%, 0.182 OPS-A | ||||
| ROAD | (1-2), 3.68 ERA, 2 HRA, 7.4 K/9, 1.33 WHIP | HOME | (3-1), 2.03 ERA, 3 HRA, 5.1 K/9, 1.376 WHIP | ||||
| BATTER SPLITS BREAKDOWN | |||||||
BAL BvP | BAL vs R | HOU BvP | HOU vs R | ||||
| Note: Batter Splits Above Open in Pop Up Window | |||||||
Las Vegas
- OU 8.5
- Favored BAL -135
Pitchers
- Home Bud Norris pitches great at home which is why the OU is so low. You be crazy to start him against BAL today however. BAL is batting .283 on the road, .284 versus right-handers, and .285 over the last 7 days. Avoid
- Away Miguel Gonzalez is playable today in a multiple pitcher format. The Astros have recorded the most Ks in the league and Gonzalez’s 1.33 WHIP is on the better side of things for starters. In Play
Batters
- Home HOU went bonkers on a bad pitcher last night. They have been hot over the last 7 days if you want to gamble on some cheap early bats
- Away Dallas Kuechel pitched well yesterday but the Astro’s pen still allowed BAL to score 6 runs (7 total). I think you can trust BAL bats to produce again today so consider everyone playable. Nick Markakis will be out again today.
