Just because it is Monday does not mean you can’t be happy right? What will make you happy you ask? How about going to bed at the end of the day with a fist-full of cash that you just won on DraftKings ? Your already registered aren’t you? Here go now ill wait …. Back already? Guess what? I am gonna send you right back so you can do the smart thing and get in this sweet spot drawing, just a few pesos to get in and a whopping $400k up for grabs. That will buy you a lot of good memories that you will probably forget in Tijuana hombre.
Lets work on getting you that money by checking out the best available lumber for Monday. You don’t have to take my word for it, you can do your own homework with our handy dandy Hitter-Tron and Stream-O-Nator.
Catcher
Wilin Rosario, C: $3,800 – The Rockies are among the best run scoring teams in baseball right now and I dont personally believe in the opposing pitcher Stults. Wilin gets #2 ranking on the ol Hitter-Tron today.
Evan Gattis, C: $3,700 – Normally I wouldn’t recommend Gattis due to his strikeout potential but love the fact he is facing Roberto Hernandez tomorrow.
First Base
Chris Davis, 1B: $4,900 – I love Chris Archer, Davis opposing pitcher so that should tell you something about the value here at a relatively cheap $4,900. The HitterTron loves Davis today ranking him #1 among first basemen.
Freddie Freeman, 1B: $4,900 – Freddie is on Fire and as mentioned with Gattis love his match-up with Hernandez.
Second Base
Brandon Phillips, 2B: $3,700 – The Hitter-Tron says yes to Phillips as the highest ranked Second Basemen for today so I have to agree with this lovely price tag.
Robinson Cano, 2B: $4,000 – I don’t need to consult the crystal ball to take someone with Cano’s abilities at such a bargain basement price.
ShortStop
Elvis Andrus, SS: $4,300 – Hittertron says number one shortstop today. I say love the fact he is opposing a rookie who the Stream-O-Nator lists at the second to last choice tomorrow.
Erick Aybar, SS: $3,200 – My value pick for the day, I’ll take a few points for a few bucks here.
Third Base
David Wright, 3B: $4,400 – I am picking on Josh Collmenter and his first start for the Dbacks here, and, well David Wright.
Evan Longoria , 3B: $4,700 – Hitter-Tron’s official number one for today since Beltre is injured. Against Chen in Camden, Yes Please.
OF
Alex Rios, OF: $4,000 – What a value, What a steal, opposing pitcher is a young’n. BUY BUY BUY
Carlos Gomez , OF: $5,600 – Me and the tools are just not seeing eye to eye on this one but Gomez and the Brew Crew are rolling!
Mike Trout, OF: $5,500 – Cheaper than Gomez for the best player in baseball. Crazy not to buy here.
Giancarlo Stanton , OF: $4,800 – Dude simply hits baseballs farther than you got on your prom date.
Lets take a look at the guns available tomorrow
Jordan Zimmermann, P: $9,800 – The Stream-O-Nator loves him in Miami. My words of warning he got absolutely shelled last time out against guess who??? The Marlins.
Josh Collmenter, P: $6,000 – Yes I picked on him earlier and yes its his first start so I don’t expect him to go super deep into the game. However the Mets strikeout ALOT. Lookin at the value play here.
I’m Only Happy When It Rains
Today looks really good everywhere except for Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati where there is a 60% chance of rain and T-Storms all day. If you followed my advices that shouldn’t matter too much anyway. Thankfully, the chance of snow in Milwaukee is dome-proofed. Snow in April? I hear you smugly chortling, Al Gore…
Doing Lines in Las Vegas
Ill take the ATL@PHI (8) and COL@SD (7) games. The Braves have been slugging behind Upton and Freeman and as previously mentioned Roberto Hernandez LOL. Colorado is a good run scoring team even in Petco.
