DraftKings is doing a better job at tightening the player salaries as the season progresses into the second week. Tonight provides an interesting 10-game slate that has a small range of Vegas totals (8.0 to 9.5). There aren’t any elite pitchers taking the mound, nor is there a game being played in the likes of Coors or Chase Field.

Pitcher
Marcus Stroman (TOR): $9,300 vs. MIL
Stroman is one of the safer pitchers on tonight’s slate and gets to face a Brewers team that had the highest strikeout rate (25.5%) last season. Small sample size or not, the Brewers are registering a 32.0% strikeout rate this season.
