The thing about DFS is that you really never know until you know. Last night was a mess with the late news of Yu Darvish being scratched due to a sore neck and then the numerous weather issues across the country. If you managed to cash last night I offer you a big congratulations because those are the nights when all you are trying to do is survive.
Tonight we have a much clearer picture and some very exciting matchups to pick apart. Hopefully neither Felix Hernandez or Clayton Kershaw wake up from their afternoon naps with any kind of soreness because I will be heavily invested in those two this evening. But as we know, spending a lot on pitching means we will be in search of some good value bats tonight. Thus, I have included a few real deep sleepers in the Playbook tonight in Nick Hundley, J.D. Martinez & Stefen Romero. Obviously there is no guarantee any of them are in the lineups tonight so be sure to verify this via the Fantasy Alarm App or on our MLB Lineups page.
Remember also to listen to Fantasy Alarm Daily every weeknight at 6 PM ET. If you don't have SiriusXM you can still listen for FREE for a week to see if we're any good. Tonight I have BOLDED some prices that are of absolute value on each site. These are plays that resemble the best values of the night.
