If you haven't become a Playbook PRO subscriber yet, all I will say is that you might want to get on board SOON because we are unveiling our first wave of new features this week. We are going to keep building and building this thing until we either make it perfect or you tell us to stop. Anyways, we've got a 10 game slate tonight in MLB and that is more than enough to build some quality lineups. The pitchers are pretty easy as Max Scherzer is the high end cash game guy although Gerrit Cole actually grades out a bit higher against the lowly Phillies tonight. The surprise here is Alex Colome who is my deep value arm for tonight because of his extreme value and double digit likelihood.
With the bats you just know that Bryce Harper is going to be owned in 75% of most contests because of his recent hot streak and traveling to Arizona isn't going to do anything to lower that ownership. I really like the Pirates lefty hitters such as Pedro Alvarez and Gregory Polanco tonightas well. Jose Abreu will be my sneaky high priced bat as he isn't getting much love with ownership these days and is starting to really heat up. Remember to check our lineups page for updates on MLB lineups when they are available and also to check back here throughout the day as I will be adding more value plays to the Playbook as they pop up.
