Y’all ready to get a little crazy on this FanDuel Friday? FanDuel has us set up for an seven-game main slate and truth be told, the pitching is not phenomenal on this slate. So, I’m turning this slate on its side and getting wild by making Trent Thornton ($7,400) my main recommendation. “Who?”, you ask. Whelp, prior to his start on March 31st (5 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 8 Ks), he was best known as that @$$hole that hit Bryce Harper in the ankle in Spring Training. The least he can do to pay me back is give me a repeat start against the Cleveland Indians. Last years’ AL Central champion is currently tied for the third least runs scored (behind the Reds and Astros) on the year. I guess that’s what happens when you lose Michael Brantley, Edwin Encarnacion, and Yonder Alonso and only replace them with Carlos Santana. Add on the Francisco Lindor and Jason Kipnis injuries, and you get, well, a poor offense. Trevor Thornton combines a 94 mph fastball with a nasty curveball, which should be enough to carve his way through this AAA lineup + Jose Ramirez. Let’s take a look at the rest of the FanDuel slate.
