I'm liking Kennedy @ home tonight vs the banged up Giants

[SoutheastBeast1]

I'm gonna let the rain scare me off in the early games with Detroit

Final lineups:

Danks
Gattis
Alvarez
Kipnis
Harrison
Cozart
Polanco
Springer
McCutchen


Strasburg
Gattis
Alvarez
Walker
Gillaspie
Mercer
Polanco
Melky
C Carter


Working on the evening games now. Also like Kennedy, but considering Masterson

[saaltydog]

Gonna leave the Tigers in for now. May have to switch out last minute though

[saaltydog]

Damn Cincy game isn't looking too good either. May avoid both

[SoutheastBeast1]

Cincy looks like the rain might be much more on and off. And it lets up around 8, so even if they have to sit there all day I'm confident that one will be played.

I really don't know about Detroit.

interesting. yah the cincy game didnt look as severe
i have gone ahead and assumed that the detroit game is fuarked. just looking at the radars and stuff

[SoutheastBeast1]

Kennedy
Martin
Smoak
Devon Travis
Donaldson
Amarista
Ellsbury
Kemp
Upton


Edit:

I might not play the night games. These options are dog****

Edit2:

Kennedy
Martin
Edwin
Travis
Asche
Reyes
JUp
Kemp
Francoeur

Can't picture anything other than Kennedy at SP. I feel like everyone will try to stack the Jays is one of the reason I don't like the late games but its the only lineups I like

All of us are in the same boat my friend. DFS is new for most of us in this thread (besides the guru mel). We are all still trying to find out what the hell works.

Make it 4 for 13 after the early games.

Strasburg sucking dick. Pirates sucking dick.


I'm going in the wrong direction fast after a decent opening day.

id just like to note that I played Jose Ramirez. Not cashing Fanduel 50/50 today... thats for sure. Maybe Ill cash the GPP cause of Alvarez and Ramirez, but Strasburg ****ting the bed cost me on Fanduel.

[saaltydog]

R. I. P. Graveman

Think for the most part I'm going to stick with Aces going forward. No sense in risking a bad outing from an unproven or mediocre pitcher. Over the long hall it should work.

depends on what youre playing. If its a cash game you need to know pitchers have much less variance in luck than batters. Go with a proven pitcher in the 50/50s, triple ups. GPP you win money by finding the wild cards. Ive cashed 85% of my 50/50s this week because the pitchers cap hits are pretty identical, ive just put out the aces and built my hitting on good matchups. Strike outs pay big on draft kings, wins pay big on FD.
