I am going cheap on pitchers tonight as Shelby Miller is the top play of the day according to our Playbook formula. Stephen Strasburg does check in at number two but I will likely stray from him tonight as I get as many of these premium bats into my lineups as possible. We have three positions that are absolutely loaded tonight as C, 1B & 2B each have about a half a dozen high end options staring us in the face. I will be adding some value plays to the Playbook later in the afternoon as the lineups are announced but if you want an early jump on those I would strongly recommend the Daily Rankings we do as part of the DFS Playbook PRO package. I am not going to put another link in here as I think it is tacky so if you are interested check out my above paragraph and give it a try.
Last night I made a big blunder in my own lineups and that was locking in Paul Goldschmidt on my Fantasy Aces lineups. Surprisingly I did cash in one of my 50/50's even with the blank space but missed the money by a range of 0.75-3 points across the board. Needless to say I won't be making that mistake again anytime soon. Here is hoping that none of you took the same risk that I did with the Colorado/Arizona game yesterday.
