What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
stlcardinals84: I will be playing around 20 entries in the large-field tournaments. I plan to be most overweight on the Mets and Phillies as stacks, and I also like taking a stand on Ranger Suarez over Robbie Ray as my SP1. Spencer Arrighetti is also an intriguing option if you want to go cheaper with your pitching choice.
Krayton: I will be playing single-entry and 20-entry contests on both sites. I will be overweight on both the Phillies and Mets for my top stacks. Ranger Suarez and Spencer Arrighetti will be a pitching combination I will be overweight on in order to get the top bats.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll be playing 150 lineups in large-field GPPs, and I’ll be keeping a really tight pool at pitching. Ranger Suarez is the top option (and someone I may lock in). I might mix in a little Robbie Ray and Trevor Rogers at lower projected ownership, then go to Spencer Arrighetti or Yoendrys Gomez when I need a cheap SP2 on DraftKings.
Who is your favorite pitcher (when considering price, matchup, projected ownership, etc.) on the board and why?

About the Author

Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
