MLB DFS - Million Dollar Musings -Monday, August 17th

Happy Monday! We lost another series to 2020 over the weekend with the Reds-Pirates being postponed, and yet we have survived into another week of baseball! We’ve got a tricky 11-game main slate with a big mess of decent pitchers without a single ace and nobody priced above $10,000 on either DK or FD. I end up finding myself with a pretty narrow pitcher pool, which makes it hard to swim, but we’ll talk about a whole bunch of other options if you prefer to play in a more normal sized pool.

Monday Night Pitching

This is a closely bunched mess of options that lacks a true DFS ace. I’ve ended up with some pretty clear opinions and have found a couple pitchers that I’m cutting from my list, but these guys are all close enough that you might find yourself going in a difference direction.
