Slate Overview: With a small 7 game slate on tap tonight, I am far more interested in game theory and ownership than I would normally be and with some likely heavy Coors chalk, and the Angels as the likely non-Coors pivot, I am going to plant my flag with one of the other 3 teams (Nationals, Reds and Royals) that have 5+ IRT’s on this slate.

The fact we can get a full 6 man Nationals stack all with .200+ ISO marks against the handedness of the SP – and can do so on the cheap – is incredibly appealing but also understand the risk with Keuchel’s ability to generate ground balls and kill rallies.
