Early Slate
Welcome to another Saturday full of baseball! We have an early slate and a late Main Slate across sites today, but the timing is a bit different, with FanDuel and DraftKings running four-game slates starting at 4:05PM ET and including the two 6PM ET games, while FantasyDraft is starting their four-game early slate at 1:05PM ET and excluding the two 6PM ET games. There are some weather issues today, particularly in Baltimore and New York, so make sure you check the latest forecast before setting your lineups. Let’s take a look at the top arms going today and see if we can find an edge.
