We've got you completely covered.   Colorado Rockies / St. Louis Cardinals Of course, both of these offenses are squarely in play. Coors Field is on a different planet when it comes to MLB ballparks. The ball flies and the runs pile up. With an over/under sitting at 11, the Rockies and Cardinals hold the 1st and 3rd highest implied team totals on the board. The Rockies are a slight home favorite and are very nice plays against Adam Wainwright. I will say, make sure you have the 2 big lefties in every stack. He's been much worse against them over the past year or two and without his changeup, he has no hope. Carlos Gonzalez and Charlie Blackmon are my favorites, with Ian Desmond and Nolan Arenado coming next. However, this is Coors Field and the production can come from anywhere. Mark Reynolds and Trevor Story both have a ton of upside, while a hitter like LeMahieu is rather safe in this environment. You can't really go wrong here. On the Cardinals side, it's a bit more cut and dry. Against a lefty, you want to target Fowler, Piscotty, Gyorko, and Grichuk. They all hit righties well and have HR upside at any point. On the flip side, we don't expect Kyle Freeland to remain in this game very long, Therefore, I;m willing to target a guy like Matt Carpenter. Carpenter, in Coors Field, will not be heavily owned. There's a chance he sees 3 at-bats against a righty in the bullpen, in which case he should be 45% owned. Whatever way you decide to go, I would make sure to get Fowler and Piscotty. I don't see this team having much success without their contribution.  All in all, this game will hold the highest ownership of the night. There are 16 different guys to choose from and literally, all of them are in play.

Greinke definitely stands out, heading to Miller Park to take on the Brewers. While Miller Park is no pitchers park, it's certainly a lot better than Chase Field. Greinke has pitched extremely well this season and faces off with a team that is reeling hard. So far this season, Greinke is holding a .273 combined wOBA and is striking out over 10 per 9 innings. He's allowed more than 3 runs in just one game, with that game being against the Mets in hitter-friendly Chase Field. While the Brewers came out on fire, we all said they are horrible. The bottom of this order is absolutely pitiful against righties and whether Brewers fans want to admit it or not, it won't change the .286 combined wOBA and 22% K rate. The top of this order, while a lot better, still holds the high K rates. Braun is expected to remain out for this one, so that is a big help for Greinke. Thames, Villar, and Shaw are the 3 lefties to be scared of. With Greinke holding lefties to a .273 wOBA and an 11 K/9, I think he gets it done. While this isn't a play without any risk, it's as good as you're going to get. With that being said, it will certainly be tough to pay for Coors Field if you play Greinke. Let's take a look at a guy who is a bit cheaper and has some nice upside. J.C. Ramirez FD 7700 DK 7100 Opponent - MIA (Nicolino) Park - @MIA FD - 27.91 DK - 18.47 It looks like J.C. Ramirez might be a starter. While the Angels expected to just give him a few spot starts, he was too good and forced them to give him a shot in the rotation. While Ramirez has definitely struggled a bit...

Pitcher EARLY Stephen Strasburg FD 11100 DK 12100 Opponent - SD (Richard) Park - @WSHFD - 42.58 DK - 27.99 On the early only slate, we have high priced, elite arms aplenty, but Stephen Strasburg stands above the crowd for raw projected point totals in our system and with good reason. First off, he's toeing the rubber today against one of the worst offenses in the major leagues in the San Diego Padres. The Padres come into the weekend with the third worst wOBA (.288) and the third worst wRC+ (78) in baseball, and they strike out nearly 24% of the time. Even the average arms in the league can pick up a big boost in production going against the Padres. So an arm like Strasburg, who was excellent his last time out against the Braves picking up 11 Ks in 7.2 innings, and is fanning 8.8 batters per 9 on the season while holding a 3.50 xFIP becomes a stellar play, excellent for cash and tournament lineups. Danny Salazar FD 9300 DK 10200 Opponent - KC (Vargas) Park - @CLEFD - 33.89 DK - 22.35 If you want to pivot off of Strasburg in tournaments then you should definitely look the way of Danny Salazar. Salazar has struggled some in his recent outings, allowing 5 earned runs in 2 of his last three appearances, and not making it out of the third inning in one of those. Today he faces the Royals whose strikeout percentage of 20.8 is right about league average, but Salazar's 13.21 K/9 is the best you'll find in baseball and that is where the appeal lies. The Royals have a collective .291 team wOBA with a 78 wRC+ against right handed pitching, only the Giants are worse at this point. I'm a little skeptical of Salazar in cash games due to his struggles through his three starts during the month of May, though not completely against it. If you think he can piece together his first quality start of the month he could pay off big time while allowing for some higher priced bats. Jerad Eickhoff FD 7200 DK 6400 Opponent - CIN (Arroyo) Park - @PHIFD - 28.88 DK - 19.21 Jerad Eickhoff is 0-5 through his first...

We've got you completely covered.   Pitcher Early Marcus Stroman FD 8900 DK 10200 Opponent - MIL (Garza) Park - @MIL FD - 31.95 DK - 21.14 This early slate is a bit weird. There is no pitcher that stands out as a must play, nor many who are horrible. We do have a couple guys with solid match-ups, but they all have risk. Marcus Stroman is our favorite of the bunch, facing off with the Milwaukee Brewers in Miller Park. He's having his best season yet, holding strong surface stats while getting extremely unlucky. He's posted a .350 wOBA and an 80% LOB rate, which are both very high and certain to drop at some point. That could be today, against a lineup with 6 righties. Stroman allowed a .302 wOBA against righties in 2016 and struck out nearly 8 of them per 9 innings. The Brewers are definitely a dangerous offense, though not at all reliable. After Braun and Shaw, you see a ginormous dropoff. The bottom 5 (Perez, Bandy, Arcia, Broxton, Garza) of this lineup, while young and full of promise, are not good against righties. They all either hold high K% or have absolutely no power/ability to hit the ball (Garza). Stroman can lock in 6 or 7 strikeouts in this matchup and if he's able to contain the top 4, he could see one of his better outings of the season. Matt Garza will surely allow some runs and if Stroman can stick around for 5, he should be in line for the win. While there is no such thing as safe on this slate, Stroman is as close as you will get to it. Main Chris Sale FD 11800 DK 13500 Opponent - TEX (Perez) Park - @BOS FD - 45.44 DK - 30.1 This one should be interesting. Chris Sale has been absolutely disgusting to start the season and nobody has been able to consistently square him up. He welcomes the Rangers into Fenway Park tonight and will most likely send them packing as well. To start, he's death to lefties. The Rangers will be forced to hit 2 or 3 L's, who you can chalk up for 6-8 strikeouts. Against righties, Sale is striking out nearly 14 per 9 innings. He's backed...

We do have couple solid options, but nowhere near the same amount of options as yesterday. Starting us off, we have Stephen Strasburg against the Braves. While the Braves have seemed to "get it done", the numbers say they are horrible against righties and should be targeted in this match-up. They do only hold a 3.89 implied team total, which is a lot lower than the average team on this slate. The Braves are really horrible right now and without Freddie Freeman, they will be shut down more often than they dominate. The entire lineup is filled with horrible hitters and even though they keep getting lucky, that will stop. The bottom of this order is pitiful and has a couple guys who should not be in the MLB. Strasburg has actually started the season a lot worse against righties. His numbers should normalize and as a guy who has dominated righties for his entire career, the numbers should come back. We took a look at this match-up yesterday with Max  Scherzer. He ended up only going 5 innings and not having a very great start. This should keep a lot of people off of Strasburg, who is a worse pitcher in the same match-up. Fortunately for us, what Scherzer did yesterday has no impact on Stephen Strasburg and his current production. Strasburg has a ton of upside here and in cash games, he makes a ton of sense. You can chalk in 6 or 7 strikeouts here and against the Braves, I think 'Stras goes 7 or 8 innings. Either way, this is a slate without too many options and you do have to take it here you can get it. SunTrust Park has been a friendly hitter haven, but let's see if Strasburg can shut them down for a day. Chris Archer FD 10100 DK 10800 Opponent - NYY (Sabathia) Park - @TB FD - 36.7 DK - 24.15 Staying in the same price range as Stephen Strasburg, we have Chris Archer facing off with the...
