Sample Lineup with an Ace

P – Max Scherzer

C/1B – Wilmer Flores

2B – Jonathan Villar

3B – Matt Duffy

SS – Amed Rosario

OF – Mallex Smith, Starling Marte, Domingo Santana

Utility – Yangervis Solarte

It’s going to be next to  impossible to not play Scherzer in cash, He should be very highly owned but if he scores 70 points and you don’t have him, that could be a huge problem. It’s truly not as bad to find some value as I thought it might be. Flores will be the chalkiest play of the day due to his price tag. I’m hoping Villar flys under the radar a bit because I think he’s due for a big game tomorrow and it’s especially attractive given his price. Marte and Solarte would be the two biggest spends in this lineup and I feel comfortable with their ability to produce in their spots.

Sample Lineup without an Ace

P – Mike Soroka

C/1B – Wilmer Flores

2B – Jonathan Villar

3B – Travis Shaw

SS – Adeiny Hechavvaria

OF – Yoenis Cespedes, Starling Marte, Michael Brantley

Utility – Ozzie Albies

There’s a couple of repeat plays in each lineup because I’m really excited about the spots they find themselves in today. Soroka opens up a ton of salary, which gets us up to Shaw at 3B, Cespedes and Brantley in the outfield and then Albies as our biggest spend of the day. He was one of the only Braves that didn’t disappoint yesterday and he’s going to have a big game again today.

Stacks To Consider – Rays(vs Toronto), Brewers lefties(vs Pittsburgh) and Twins(at White Sox)
