It’s a nine-game slate tonight, providing us a mix of high-end pitchers and bargain options with upside. However, I’m only enamored with two full stacks, despite the robust size of the slate. Instead, my preference is to pick one-offs around the top stacks. Rather than feign interest in a third stack I have no intention of using, I include only the two stacks I’m intrigued by. I’ve made up for the lack of a third stack by adding an extra value play/punt to the mix.
