Pitchers Gerrit Cole FD 11300 DK 10400 Opponent - BAL (Jordan Lyles) Park - BAL FD - 41.52 DK - 23.64 There were some ups and downs in the first half but Cole finished very strong holding opponents to two or fewer earned runs in six of his last seven starts(2.14 ERA). Not only has he been providing a terrific fantasy floor but he has also provided the elite upside we have come to love as he finished with 23 strikeouts over his final two starts and tallied a 36% K rate in those seven starts mentioned above. He faces an Orioles team that finished the first half hot but still ranks as a bottom 10 offence overall. Cole is my top overall pitcher on this slate. Kyle Wright FD 10500 DK 9100 Opponent - LAA (Patrick Sandoval) Park - LAA FD - 37.33 DK - 19.97 The Braves' 2017 5th overall pick has faced some hurdles along the way but is finally making an impact on the major league roster. He went into the All-Star break 2nd in the majors in wins(11) with an impressive 2.95 ERA/3.49 xFIP. The only thing really lacking lately are the strikeouts(five or fewer in five straight) but he still holds a slightly above-average 24% rate on the season. He also gets a terrific matchup against a Trout-less Angels team that is operating at a sub 60 wRC+ without him. Lock and load in all formats. Catcher/First Base José Abreu FD 3500 DK 4800 Opponent - CLE (Konnor Pilkington) Park - CLE FD - 9.28 DK - 7.02 Game two of the Guardians/White Sox is on the main slate tonight and it's the Chicago side that I favour for offence. They get a plus matchup against rookie Konnor Pilkington who has struggled as a starter putting a to of runners on base(1.78 WHIP) which has led to an underwhelming 4.84 ERA/4.91 xFIP. He has only given up four home runs but that could change as he is giving up over a 40% hard contact rate and 11% barrel rate. For Abreu, his slow start is a thing of the past as he enters the night with hits in nine straight and 23 of his last 24 games. The price is getting back up there but all things considered, he is my top PTS/$ play at first base on this slate. Sean Murphy FD 2500 DK...

Pitchers Max Scherzer FD 11500 DK 10400 Opponent - SD (Yu Darvish) Park - SDFD - 44.95 DK - 25.39 It’s our first full slate of MLB action post-All-Star Break and we are going to be paying up for pitching in cash games. There are two guys at the top of the list who qualify as true aces and both are in good spots. When healthy, Scherzer has been electric this season for the Mets. In his 11 starts, he has a 2.90 xFIP with a 7.5:1 K:BB ratio which is about as good as you’ll ever see it in the majors. He’s putting down 11.74 batters per nine and has gone at least six innings in all but two of his starts this season. It’s tough to find a better pitcher going these days. Corbin Burnes FD 11300 DK 10200 Opponent - COL (Antonio Senzatela) Park - COLFD - 43.8 DK - 24.87 Burnes is almost always leading the cash game picks when he takes the mound, but there’s also Scherzer today. So that’s no knock on Corbin at all. He has, easily, the best money line odds on the day as a -274 home favorite against the Rockies who completely stink away from Coors. Like Scherzer, he’s ultra-efficient with 11.4 K’s per nine and a 5:1 K:BB ratio. It will be tough fitting both into cash games on DraftKings, but it’s definitely worth it to give it a try. The floor for these two guys is just so high. Catcher/First Base Anthony Rizzo FD 3900 DK 5100 Opponent - BAL (Tyler Wells) Park - BALFD - 12.15 DK - 9.13 The Yankees have the highest run line of the main slate on Friday and we are going to want to try to get them into cash games. It will be tough to fully stack them fully with the higher-priced arms. Facing off against Tyler Wells is a good start though for the Bombers and Rizzo is one of the better options at this position. He’s got an OPS in the low-800s for the season though does have 22 home runs already. He’s on pace for a career number there if things keep up. Rolling with the top of the Yankees order is going to be the way to go here. Ty France FD 3300 DK 4500 Opponent - HOU (José Urquidy) Park - HOUFD...

Pitchers Jon Gray FD - P 9000 DK - SP 8600 Opponent - MIA (Pablo López) Park - MIA FD - 33.07 DK - 17.06 This game presents us with an interesting choice on the mound and I am probably going the least popular route with Gray. While Lopez is the better pitcher overall, Gray has a lot going for him today and it starts with his form going into the All-Star break as he posted a 2.06 ERA/2.56 xFIP over his last seven starts. The biggest reason I am on Gray here is the matchup as he faces a Marlins' offence that ranked dead last in runs scored, home runs, wOBA, and wRC+ over the final two weeks going into the break. I wouldn't talk anyone off Lopez here or even the idea of pairing them together but for me, Gray is my top play on this slate. Zach Logue FD - P 7500 DK - 5700 Opponent - DET (Tarik Skubal) Park - OAK FD - 19.67 DK - 10.12 If you aren't pairing Lopez and Gray or taking a risk with an arm in the Yankees/Astros game, there is really only one other place to end up for SP2 on DraftKings. While the A's dumped pretty much all talent in the offseason it did mean there would be a ton of opportunities for young players in their system. Zach Logue is one of those and while it has been a roller coaster ride, the good news is that he has held opponents to two or fewer earned runs in five of his six starts including his latest start holding the Astros to just three hits. The matchup also helps as he faces the Tigers who are a bottom-three offence and went into the break losers of eight of their last nine games. He is my top value SP2 on DraftKings to help me get to more bats. Catcher/First Base Sean Murphy FD 2500 DK 4200 Opponent - DET (Tarik Skubal) Park - DET FD - 8.59 DK - 6.47 What makes this small slate the most difficult is the fact that the best matchup for bats is also one of the worst offences in baseball. Either way, I am fully on board targeting against Tarik Skubal who really struggled coming into the break posting a 6.86 ERA with seven home runs against(16% HR/FB) in his final eight starts....

The Course TPC Twin Cities Par 71 - 7,431 Yards Greens - Bentgrass **Click the image above to see a hole-by-hole breakdown from PGATour.com** Previous Three Winners 2021 - Cameron Champ(-15) 2020 - Michael Thompson(-19) 2019 - Matthew Wolff(-21) Top Tier Targets Hideki Matsuyama World Golf Ranking (#14) Vegas Odds (18/1) Draftkings ($10,300) FanDuel ($11,900) We definitely have the "returning from the Open" travel narrative this week but I am not too concerned and will try and target the lowest owned of the group, at least in the top tier. Early indications show Finau and Theegala as the chalk options at the very top and that has me turning to Hideki for leverage. It is a good news/bad news situation and let's start with the latter as he is coming off a T68 at the OPEN and missed cut at the Scottish Open which probably helps drive the lower ownership projection. The good news here is that he is the highest ranking player in the field in terms of OWGR and looking at my short-term model(via FNGC), he ranks 4th in SG: Approach, 1st in Proximity, 6th in Par 4 Scoring, 2nd in Opp Gained, and 10th in Birdie or Better gained and he also has history here with a Top 10 back in 2019. He is my top play in this top tier this week. Adam Hadwin World Golf Ranking (#85) Vegas Odds (20/1) Draftkings ($9,600) FanDuel ($11,400) I really don't trust the chalk at this event so will again look to take some risks with lower-owned players. Coming into the week, I honestly didn't think Hadwin would fall in this category given he has picked up a Top 10 in both trips to TPC Twin Cities but he missed cut at the John Deere and terrible putting recently seem to be driving that as of now....

Pitchers Justin Verlander FD 11100 DK 11100 Opponent - OAK (Jared Koenig) Park - OAK FD - 44.1 DK - 24.47 Max Fried FD 10700 DK 10400 Opponent - WSH (Paolo Espino) Park - WSH FD - 37.66 DK - 20.46 This huge early slate has a major lack of value on the mound which is going to force us to pay up as much as possible. It isn't impossible to pay up for both of these aces so I paired them together as they have a ton of similarities when looking at all the angles. They both go deep into games and average over six innings per start, they both have average K rates of around 25%, and both have been very efficient recently with Fried allowing two or fewer earned runs in nine of his last 10 while Verlander has done so in five of his last six. Then you look at the matchups and both stand out as Fried gets the Nats who have dropped 13 of their last 14 while Verlander gets the A's who rank dead last in wOBA(.252) against right-handed pitching. If you aren't just stacking them together and forcing me to choose between them, I would go Verlander who is at home. Miles Mikolas FD 10000 DK 8700 Opponent - CIN (Nick Lodolo) Park - CIN FD - 34.73 DK - 18.37 I mentioned the lack of value options so we don't go down the board very far to find our top PTS/$ SP2 today. Mikolas has been very similar to the above two options in that the strikeouts have been down but he has been very efficient in holding opponents to two or fewer earned runs in six of his last seven starts. Today he faces a Reds team that has been on a heater as of late but have also struck out at a crazy 29% rate and on the season rank as a bottom-five offence. All things considered on this early slate, Mikolas is in play for me in all formats. Catcher/First Base Trey Mancini FD 3000 DK 2800 Opponent - TB (Ryan Yarbrough) Park - TB FD - 9.08 DK - 6.94 We are going to need some value on this slate and the Orioles provide just that. It starts at first base with Trey Mancini who is not only sub $3K on DraftKings but also comes in red-hot with...

Pitchers Alek Manoah FD - P 9600 DK - SP 9000 Opponent - KC (Zack Greinke) Park - TORFD - 35.78 DK - 19.12 The Royals brought a skeleton crew up to Toronto for this series because they have so many players on the restricted list, but it didn’t seem to matter all that much on Thursday. They still beat the Blue Jays 3-1. That being said, it’s not likely to repeat for the series and Alek Manoah is in an incredible spot just like Gausman was last night. He’s a -356 home favorite, a number you simply don’t see these days except in extreme examples, and will be tough to not play in cash games based almost solely on this number alone. Clayton Kershaw FD 10100 DK 9400 Opponent - LAA (Patrick Sandoval) Park - LAAFD - 38.71 DK - 21.05 He’s more expensive with worse win odds than Manoah, but we should talk about Kershaw here. The dude is having a fantastic season with a 2.40 ERA and a 2.91 xFIP that isn’t too far behind. He’s got a 5.8:1 K:BB ratio and is putting down batters at a 28% clip. The elite control has him going close to six innings per start on the season and some of that is even low because the pitch counts never get too crazy. On a normal day, he’d probably be the top cash pitcher but there is wackiness going on in Toronto. Catcher/First Base C.J. Cron FD 4300 DK 5400 Opponent - PIT (José Quintana) Park - PITFD - 16.56 DK - 12.45 Cron has put together a fantastic season with an .892 OPS and 20 home runs already. He has Coors to thank in a big way with a 1.064 OPS in the friendly confines of Coors. He could add to it today. He’ll face off against the lefty Jose Quintana and for his career Cron has been significantly better against southpaws. The Rockies have the highest run line of the day and though they are expensive could be popular plays on this slate. Ty France FD 3000 DK 4300 Opponent - TEX (Matt Bush) Park - TEXFD - 14.35 DK - 10.94 France has an .829 OPS on the season with 10 home runs. All well and good, but he makes for a solid cash game pick on almost a day-in-day-out basis because he’s so patient at the plate....
