If I hadn't witnessed this past week for myself, I wouldn't even believe it to be quite honest with you. The Playbook model says to fade Kershaw and he gets shelled against the Diamondbacks. It says to avoid Jordan Zimmermann against the Red Sox and he lasts just 2.1 innings. Then our formulas rate random starters like Daniel Norris and Shane Greene over Carlos Carrasco coming off of a 10 strikeout game and he gets knocked out of the game by a line drive in the first inning. Then we forecast the Kyle Seager breakout a couple of days ago and tell everyone to play Giancarlos Stanton despite him being 3-23 on the season. If you weren't a believer last year and didn't get your share of the $1.045 million that the Playbook won for our readers than maybe this magical start to the 2015 season changed your mind. 

Or, maybe you will tell us about how you finished last in every contest you did yesterday, blame the Playbook yet provide absolutely no evidence you even took our advice. Either way, we welcome you to a Wednesday edition of the DFS MLB Playbook. Let's take a look at the early game action here as we get four games to choose from in a slate that will likely see a lot of overlay across the industry. 

Here is the DFS MLB Playbook for Wednesday April 15th early games:
