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?

stevietpfl: I’m going to have a mix between single-entry and large-field contests on this slate. It’s a great slate with top pitching and stacks. With early season baseball, I’m going to spread out my ownership on pitching, but I’ll be overweight on the Mets, Padres, and Athletics.

stlcardinals84: Large field tournaments are my preferred approach, and I will still spread out my exposure quite a bit. My favorite stacks are the Mets and Astros, while I will also add in quite a few stacks of the Cubs and A’s with how hitter-friendly the park in Sacramento looks to be playing. For pitching, I will concentrate my exposure on the aces (overweight on Luis Castillo and Tarik Skubal for sure), with Clay Holmes as my favorite SP2.

ncorfield8k: Large-field tournaments – I’ll play the top-projected pitchers and get different with my stacks.

TJ Zwarych: I’ll be playing 150 lineups in large-field GPPs tonight, and I plan to have a really small pitching pool. Paul Skenes, Tarik Skubal, and Clay Holmes will be my primary trio, while mixing in some Cole Ragans and Ryan Pepiot. The Mets, Cubs, and Athletics are my top stacks, but I’ll be differentiating those a lot more than pitchers.
