Back at it tonight with a classic line up. Here is how we spent our $50,000 on Draft Kings.
P: Jacob deGrom, Mets ($12,200): deGrom was suppose to start last night against the Yankees but thanks to rain delay, he’s pitching tonight against a weak Padres line up.
P: Luis Castillo, Reds ($6,800): Risky match up against the Cardinals but I like Castillo’s strikeout potential.
C: Tucker Barnhart, Reds ($3,400): Barnhart has been good offensively at home and I’m banking on that tonight against youngster Daniel Poncedeleon.
1B: Cody Bellinger, Dodgers at Phillies ($3,900): Zach Elfin is a tough match up but the Dodgers are raking as a line up and Citizens Bank Park is the perfect Park to hit, even for lefties.
2B: Ian Kinsler, Angels vs. White Sox ($3,600): Kinsler has tailed off a bit but he’s still a solid play at home against Lucas Giolito.
3B: Johan Camargo, Braves at Marlins ($3,600): Solid value against Jose Urena, especially in Miami. Camargo has good gap power and the alleys at Marlins Park play to his strengths.
SS: Addison Russell, Cubs vs. D-Backs ($3,400): Patrick Corbin is a tough lefty but Russell has hit lefties well at home in his career.
OF: Bryce Harper, Nationals at Brewers ($4,800): Harper has been struggling but Miller Park can be very forgiving, especially with Jhoulys Chacin on the mound for the Brew Crew.
OF: Khris Davis, A’s at Rangers ($4,600): Davis continues to strikeout a bunch but playing in Texas against a crappy pitching staff like the Rangers makes Davis an appealing play.
OF: Mark Trumbo, Orioles vs. Red Sox ($3,700): Trumbo is a cheap power source at home against Rick Porcello. Porcello tends to give up the long ball, especially in Baltimore.
