I hope you won a bunch of money this weekend. I had a bunch of almosts and just won some of the money. If Casey Mears doesn’t crash in the 52nd lap I win NASCAR things. I felt good with over 180 points out of my Seattle stack yesterday, but everybody scored points yesterday. Had Day and/or Spieth in nearly all of my 20 lineups, having Spieth 13 times and Day 7 times, but I had either Pat Perez, George McNeil, Ryan Palmer, or Jimmy Walker in all of them. Can’t wait to try again on Thursday.

Monday’s the 2nd best day to take off this time of year in DFS and I am taking that line today. Headed to Elitch Gardens, a Six Flags amusement park. The last time I was at an amusement park wasn’t old enough to drink. This time I got a hotel next door. Should be a fun day.

Fired up the Magic Machine though to give y’all some MLB picks. 10 games on the slate with lots of pitching options. Cole Hamels, Gerrit Cole, and Scott Kazmir all look like fine plays. I like Hamels the best of those 3. As long as you don’t take Sonny Gray, Michael Wacha, Andrew Heaney, or Danny Salazasr you’ll be fine. All are overpriced in less than optimal matchups. Matt Garza at 6.1k is an excellent punt play, but I’m not sure we’re going to want to be spending on bats considering all the quality arms out tonight. Let’s look.

Nope. Mike Trout is top of the pile but he’s not in a good matchup. I like Marte a lot today, he showed that his hand is fine yesterday and he’s cheap. I don’t like Cutch at 5.3k. I don’t like Brantley, Cruz, Goldy, Braun, Altuve, or Fielder due to price and matchups. So yeah, I probably wouldn’t find myself with Garza tonight.

Behind the plate I like Yan Gomes or Jesus Montero. At first it’s a toss up between Santana and Pujols, nice punt optionis in Justin Bour and Travis Shaw. Punt 2B today. Options include Jose Ramirez, Tim Beckham (has pop!), Elian Herrera, or Taylor Featherston. Ramirez and Beckham are also SS eligible on DK. HanRam is the top SS option but he’s been out with foul ball foot for the weekend. Nice GPP play if he’s in the lineup today. Carlos Santana fills in at 3B also on DK, but give me Derek Dietrich if he’s hitting up in the order again. Cheap and 4th most likely to dong tonight according to my projections. In the outfield i like Marte, Carlos Gomez on the top end, Shane Victorino, Gregor Blanco, Preston Tucker, Coco Crisp, and Brandon Guyer on the bottom end.

Careful with stacking today, the good ones will be popular cause there won’t be many if any good ones. Might be the day to load up with pitchers and dudes likely to dong.

I see roller coasters. Have a nice Monday!
