Opponent - SD (Chacin) Park - @STL

We touched on Kluber and Stroman in the main picks article. They are still both in play and my favorite 2 options. If you're looking to pay down, we have a very solid option in Luke Weaver. Weaver and the Cardinals host the Padres, after giving up a million runs to them just last night. Let's hope that keeps the masses off of Weaver here. If you're unaware, Luke Weaver is a huge prospect. He was a 1st round pick just 2 years ago and has progressed through the Cardinals camp with ease. Per the usual, a Cardinal pitching prospect is coming through. He's priced like a gas can and he'll let you pay up for bats, while giving you the upside to bink a tourney. The win should also be pretty safe on a site like FD, as Jhoulys Chacin will rarely give up less than 2 or 3 runs in the first few innings. Weaver is an excellent play on both sites and I don't even hate him in cash games on DK as an SP2.
Opponent - NYM (Flexen) Park - @NYM
FD - 33.63 DK - 22.27
Personally, all my slots are filled. I'm either paying up for Kluber, Severino, or Stroman, or paying down for Luke Weaver. However, there is merit in looking in that sweet middle spot. The ownership will be down and you will guarantee yourself a unique lineup construction. If you've played the last few days, you have probably realized how bad this Mets lineup has been. They are now possibly without Michael Conforto, which makes it even worse. The Mets are an absolute dumpster fire at this point and it's not a bad idea to stream pitchers against them. As for Zack Godley, he's a very solid pitcher. He's held both lefties and righties to a sub .285 wOBA and has struck out 9.74 per 9 in the process. Citi Field is a huge upgrade from Chase Field and Godley is in a very safe spot. You can take him in both cash games and tournaments.

Does Weaver's FD price being $7800 change your mind on him for today?
Nope, I usually write based on the actual prices, just FYI. The prices listed are just a backend error at times, so I'm definitely aware of real prices. Just incase there's any confusion. Thanks guys!
Godly and weaver are both being talked up heavily everywhere. Both are going to be NOT LOW OWNED
Yep, agree and disagree. With 5 or 6 guys getting talked up around the industry, we may not have to worry about 1 or 2 guys being chalk. Weaver and Godley definitely in that 5 or 6 that will be 10-20% owned.
