Main Slate
The NFL kicks-off tonight, so we have one of the smallest baseball main slates of the year, with only four games on the schedule starting at 6:40PM ET. FanDuel and FantasyDraft are starting early with the full four-game slate, so make sure you get your lineups in early if you are playing on those sites. DraftKings is sticking with the more traditional 7:05PM ET start time, removing the Padres – Reds game from the slate. We still have some decent pitching options even on the smaller slate, so let’s take a look at the best of the arms taking the hill tonight.
