Today, we have an eight-game early slate. There is a strong chance of the Red Sox/Pirates game being postponed so I won’t be recommending any plays in that game even though Eduardo Rodriguez stands out like a diamond in this lousy pitching slate. There might be a late start in Washington, but the game should be played. With that being said, there could be a delay which means neither Gio Gonzalez or Tom Koehler can be trusted to grab the 4 point Quality Start or even the 5 innings to secure a Win. Let’s take a look at the best plays today for a GPP contest.
