We've got kind of a convaluted set of contests on this Saturday. DraftKings is completely ignoring the earliest game of the day, Philadelphia at Washington starting at 12:05 ET. FanDuel is offering some all-day contests including that game, but the game is not included in their early only slate, for which they're offering much bigger and better contests. Aces has their slates split between afternoon and evening, and the afternoon slate includes the PHI @ WAS game. All that said, the game was considered for the Playbook, but no Phillies or Nats made the cut.
As for the slates and contests being offered, the all-day, early only and evening only slates on DK are all in play thanks to late swap capability. Avoid that FD early slate since they don't have late swap and the contests being offered aren't good anyway. Just play early only and evening only on FD and Aces.
As far as weather goes, rain could potentially be an issue n the following games: KC @ CWS, SD @ COL, DET @ NYY. The games in Chicago and New York don't appear to be in too much danger, and they really don't look like PPD possibilities. The Chicago game could see a delay, but the pitchers in that game aren't great options, so a delay would not affect us for DFS puposes. The game in NYY is more likely to see a late start than anything, which is of no matter to us. The Colorado game could be the game with the most issues, but given the importance of that game, the weather report is going to have to get much worse in the afternoon to justify avoiding that game.
If you need additional options for a given slate, please consult the DFS Rankings.
All players are listed according to their FD positional eligibility. Any mention of a player's wRC+ against left- or right-handed pitching or their xFIP against left- or right-handed hitting is since since the beginning of 2015.
