We've got an exceptionally small Monday slate, and there are really no "safe" pitching options. That means there is plenty of cash to go around to use on batters.

I'll be filling in for Justin on this full Tuesday main slate. Chris Sale is the top target at pitcher in cash games, priced $300 below Gerrit Cole and facing a strikeout prone Rays lineup. That will require some punt/low-priced bats to fill in lineups after, several of which will be highlighted in today's articles.... Read More
As usual with Monday's, we have a smaller slate on FanDuel tonight. The pitching options are rather slim given some tough matchups, but there are several stacking options availableas a result.

I can honestly say thank goodness the regular season is winding down.
