thought the ump was a little tight with the strike call on pitches up in the zone.

Got to say, part of my thinking in going with Hutchison was because I felt most stud pitchers won't be going past the 7th inning in their first start.

And Price goes out and throws a shutout

ETA: Spoke too soon. 8 2/3 for Price

NYY will trot out a lefty dominant lineup, especially being at home. Could spell trouble.

Is this not a direct quote from you in this same thread? You basically said the same thing I said, you just stopped short of saying you were avoiding playing him like I did. But the smart move was to not play him in cash games today specifically because of your reasoning quoted above.

Plus, we'd all be making millions on daily fantasy if we were correct with every one of our lineups every night.

he didn't get the Ks I wanted, but Hutch only gave up 4 hard hit balls all game, two from Gardner.

He looked great! Good job for everyone who did play him.

gots to check those lineups on Twitter, bruh

i was up late messing around with that last night but it wouldn't have made a difference I don't think.

that lineup only had a few guys that did something.

Ventura, Tulo, and Gardner.

might try a $1 game tomorrow. I'll try and set one up before I leave in the morning.

Greinke or take a shot with Jessie Hahn?

Vegas likes Grienke tonight. O/U for that game is 6 (lowest of the night) and the dodgers are still pretty solid betting favorites in it.

I do like Hahn too. I have both Grienke and Hahn going in one of my DK lineups.

As far as bats go, I will be running some Colo/Mil stacks and SF/AZ stacks. No way Milwaukee gets shut down again tonight against Lyles, right (8.5 O/U in that game)? I don't like either pitcher in the SF game, so I agree on getting in some SF bats tonight.

I have a few guys I like.

Latos 8600 - Braves suck, game at Miami
Wood 8600 - damn good pitcher, same ballpark as above
Lynn 8600 - Cubs will K a lot
Paxton 6600 - huge believer in Paxton and a value play, game at Safeco, but the Angels are stout

I will probably make a lineup with Wood and Paxton. The Paxton lineup looks pretty damn sexy. It features Arenado

, Trout, and Puig.

Greinke is pitching against Ross, hence the low O/U for that game

I like Hahn or Wood tonight. Paxton has been good vs LAA, too, but the righty bats are always lurking for the Angels

Dodgers are still -175 favorites, which is pretty large considering the low O/U.

I have more lineups without Grienke than with, so I am not trying to persuade anyone. I'm just reporting the Vegas lines for that game because someone specifically asked about him.

Hahn was like $1000 more than Paxton. I like Hahn as well and starting him in VIAC.

I will make a Wood and a Paxton lineup.
