MLB DFS - Million Dollar Musings - Friday, August 14th

Happy Friday! The last couple days have been very easy to break down, and for the most part the fairly obvious chalk has hit. This is no time to get complacent as tonight’s slate is a much more difficult puzzle to piece together. We are loaded with strong pitching options, but also have no shortage of great offense to spend on.

The first item of note is that FD and Yahoo are including the Nationals-Orioles game while DK is not. This doesn’t affect that start time with the 7:05 main slates, but it does add more bats along with Stephen Strasburg into the mix on FD/Y.

We are absolutely loaded with pitching options tonight, so I’m going to end up cutting some very good pitchers out of my pool. You can spread out as wide as you want to night, but I’m going to do my best to get this down to a manageable size. Let’s get into it.
