Pitchers
Chris Sale FD 11000 DK 13700
Opponent - CLE (Bauer) Park - @CLE
FD - 43.16 DK - 24.29
He is clearly the best pitcher, talent-wise, on the slate but is a bit risky as he is 1. expensive, especially on DraftKings and 2. has a tough matchup vs. the Indians who are capable of putting up some crooked numbers and strike out less than 18% vs. left-handed pitching. Good news for Sale is he is that the Indians have struggled a bit this week losing three of their last four games and have scored just two runs in their last two. It shouldn't be a problem fitting him in as there will be a ton of value plays showing up as lineups come in this afternoon.
Jose Berrios FD 9100 DK 8600
Opponent - CHW (Holland) Park - @CHW
FD - 28.84 DK - 14.73
The risk is all over this pick tonight. This game has the highest total of the main slate and Berrios has been way better at home but hear me out before you run away and X him. He is coming off his best start, from a fantasy perspective, in some time as he went seven innings allowing just two hits to the D-Backs while striking out seven and walking just one. He now gets a big upgrade in matchup as he will face the White Sox who rank 28th in wOBA and wRC+ vs. right-handed pitching with a 2.5% strikeout rate.

It would be appreciated if you would the team a pitcher plays for. A middling fan like myself may know more than the casual players but no where near the most avid. Of course I know Sale pitches for Boston but have no idea who Berrios does. Thanks, JZ
I second this suggestion.
Look it up. Or……. look at his hat.
Hat not accurate alot of times Tate-e-poo.
I will pass that along to the support team as the face, name, projection is all an HTML interface that we insert into article.
Here is my SP sheet for today as well.

I like that as an amateur daily fantasy guy, people make me look smart. much appreciation to people who don’t know what team players are on but want to gamble. This makes me very optimistic.
Dude it’s daily fantasy…it’s all just luck there’s no such thing as amateur or expert.
