FanDuel Main Slate Breakdown For 8.1

Alright, ladies and gentlemen! Sorry for the delay in today’s posting but life happens. I have a nice little 11 game slate to dig in to for you this evening. Keep an eye out for coronavirus postponement (STL/MIL is already postponed and still listed on the slate). Here is my Win Daily Sports FanDuel main slate breakdown for 8.1.

Main Slate Breakdown for 8.1 Pitching:

Cash

Tyler Glasnow, Rays, 9.8K:

This one does not need a ton of explanation. Glasnow is good, Baltimore….Well, you know. Small sample size but in two starts Tyler went 14 innings with 11 K’s over two starts respectably against the Orioles last season. The O’s are currently sporting a 21% K rate and Glasnow was sporting an 11.36 K/9 rate in 2019 and in one start it looks like he in line to do the same.

Tyler Chatwood, Cubs, 8.0K:

Chatwood came out gangbusters in his first start striking out seven in six innings of work in his debut this season against the Brewers and only two walks which is good for him. I’m personally still a little worried about how much his price shot up and the low strikeout projection from Vegas but the wind is actually blowing in at Wrigley today and we’re really thin on top-level pitching this evening so I think we’ll be safe today.

GPP

Zack Greinke, Astros, 9.0K

Greinke put on a dud of an appearance in his first outing when almost everyone was using him in cash and think we can use that to our advantage today. His price took a dip but I don’t think it was enough of a drop to get people to ignore the 7 point performance next to his name. The Angels are still striking out at a surprising clip with their power bats being the biggest chunk of those strikeouts. The cherry on top, no Mike Trout while he is celebrating the birth of his child.

Gio Gonzales, White Sox, 5.7K:

He’s not going to be someone who gets you deep into games, five innings is typically all you get on a good day but he is right around eight K/9 and he only gave up 3 earned in his final 6 outings last season. He’s dirt cheap and going against an offensively deficient Royals team today.

Others to consider: Julio Urias, Michael Wacha

Main Slate Breakdown for 8.1 Stacks and Bats:

Just FYI my stacks are in no particular order in terms offavorites, I’m not sure if I made that clear previously. Oh, and Dodgers arealways implied unless I state otherwise.

Rockies:

I’m curious what the ownership will be on this one tonight, I don’t know if we’ll get more Red Sox/Yankees ownership leaving this one to slip through the cracks somehow. The implied total is right around 6.3 for both teams so I’m loading up on all Rockies and Padres tonight. Story, Arenado, and Dalh are all going to be heavily used tonight in my lineups. I usually lean away from BVP but the sample is large enough for Story and Arenado to feel confident if the stat lines. Kemp might be an under the radar guy tonight as well.

Cash: Story, Arenado, Dahl GPP: Blackmon, Kemp

Yankees:

Padres:

As I said, I’m all in on this game tonight. Tatis, Pham, Grisham, Machado, and Myers all profile extremely well against Freeland and we get the added benefit of park effect to go with it. BVP samples are small but if you subscribe to that line of thought it provides an additional layer where both Tatis and Pham have an OPS of over 1.000 and Machado is 3-11 with 1 walk and 2 doubles.

Cash: Machado, Tatis, Grisham, Pham

Yankees:

I feel like I put them on here every day but for good reason. a 5.7 implied run total with the wind blowing out har to left field all night and we could end up seeing a ton of warning track fly balls find their way over the wall tonight. I’d personally prefer to see it out towards the short porch but there is zero lack of pop up and down the Yankees lineup. It’s the normal cast and crew here. Not a lot in terms of the matchup to go off of here but if his sinker doesn’t stay down Godley gives up massive totals.

Cash: Judge, Stanton, Hicks GPP: Urshella, LeMahieu, Torres

FavoritePitcher:

Cash: Glasnow

GPP: Gonzalez

Favorite Stack: Padres

Favorite Chalk Player: Story

Favorite Low Owned Player: Kemp

Salary Saver: Kemp

Home Run Call: Kemp Yet Again
