Gleyber Torres is in the cleanup position in the perfect spot for some serious production. This is my ceiling play tonight. Without Torres you may be left in the dust! Slate breaker potential. The Yankees are favored at -210 with a 9 under/over.

Kyle Seager…Lock and load. One off of the day!

Josh Reddick is in the leadoff spot tonight against Freddy Peralta. Yes, you heard that right. Over a three year average (2016-2018), Reddick is batting .244 with zero home runs in 41 at-bats in the lead off position. Not very impressive.

Speaking of tired bullpens, the Yankees have a doubleheader today where the first game utilized 3.1 innings out of the Mets bullpen and 2.1 innings out of the Yankees bullpen. While these numbers aren’t that crazy, I do love to take advantage of the doubleheader in DFS. In my experience, the back end of a doubleheader can get dicey. I typically have high exposure to the back end of any doubleheader as both teams tend to get sloppy. Tonight, I do love the Yankees in this year’s Subway Series. Lock in New York Yankee righties as the Mets left-hander Jason Vargas comes into this game with a 4.87 road ERA.
We have ourselves a 12 under/over at Coors Field! What do I do? I’ll tell you what to do, stack the s**t out of this game. Under/overs as high as this are rare, let alone ones that are in Coors Field. With the bullpens tired from yesterday’s high scoring affair, I expect a massive game off the home run ball primarily in Colorado tonight. The Cubs are slightly favored at -125.
