I know the Giants and Braves game is pretty worthless, but it was left off the list.
I hate Coors Field
Well – I only had 1 Coors lineup last night – and it cashed…..easily. Rox RHBs today against sacrificial Lamb and the gas can bullpen again.
Early slate question: debating between a cards/twins stack or brewers/mets. Thoughts?
Everything is lined up for Sean Manaea to have a good game. (Team ISO 0.107) (Team wOBA 0.268) (Opp K% 24.9%) (home favorite in pitchers park -120) and Sano is not playing. I find myself playing Sean Manaea in the Early slate
I’d rather do Mets/Brewers of those 4…..if you can fit the salaries in there.
My outfield scored 97 points on DK last night, 174 points total, and I just barely got into the money in a large field GPP, what a crazy night, gotta love the warm weather!
Can we expect more of the same vs a lefty at Coors tonight?
Such a simple day in terms of roster construction. Only, when Coors goes off at 40% nobody wins. I guess I’ll play some cash.
and then you remember it’s Sean Manaea (.410 wOBA vs RHB, (.359 vs RHB at home)), (13.7 K% vs RHB) (35.9% Hard Hit rate) even w/ Sano the top of this lineup should still do a bit of damage.
Coors field so much skill…. When I pick Betts and Carpenter. Saahil I’ve never lost to you in a single entry contest or H2H. You are a multi entry beast though I’ll give you that.
that games got the making of a rookie pitchers duel, or two rookies getting their butts handed to them.
Valencia and Kris Davis only 2.9k on DK? Yes please.

That mets lineup sucks.
Davis is a reverse splits hitter.
Solid info, He’s likely gonna be low owned, but is there really any bats that you need to save on today at pitching..

A lot of talk about Coors Field today, in cash games it’s hard to fade COL bats, but I wouldn’t go crazy with the CIN lefties. It’s still Coors, but Chatwood has elite groundball numbers against left-handed hitters. He also has a very low HR/9 to lefties. With all that being said, all 6 of the HRs he’s allowed have been at Coors this season.
yup, was looking to playing Ces. but he’s out. Neil Walker is the lone guy I like.

eh he’s really quite equal both sides. Better versus lefties by a small small small margin. .02woba .019iso
agreed, he actually mashes lefties at home, its on the road where his problem is
100% fading coors today, and as many days until I go broke. This article by STLCardinals from last season inspired me – lots of good stories about people completely fading coors knowing it won’t pay off every day but the days it does will provide non-min cashes easily:

Yesterday should create the perfect storm for a fade with ownerships at recent all time highs today. Might throw in a CarGo piece here or there but def avoiding as much as possible. Will report back on my findings/losses.
O/u on that game has moved from 8.5 to 9 as well
Mets have dropped all the way to a -160 favorite after that LU was released
Anyone on Albert Suarez as a second pitcher tn?
Crazy how not having one player (Mookie) can wreck you.
Since I don’t need to do too much research for tonight’s slate, I’ve spent my day researching the top 1% of players….and boy did it piss me off.
As I want to be the GOAT when it’s said and done, I generally spend about 1-2 hours a day skimming through all the GPP LU’s they had the night before.. but as people, most annoy the f*ck out of me.
DFS needs a Dan Bilzerian…and hopefully my countless hours of work pay off to that effect within the next few years.
