All in on Stroman tonight. Love the price. Now here's hoping he doesn't blow up.

...and he has no command. Great job Mo.

Have to hope Syndergaard is a stud for my one lineup without Stroman probably.

Stacking lefty Dodgers for a late solo shot. Plus King Felix.

Weird night. Threw a quarter into the Turbo quarter arcade. Made 75 cents on it with a pitcher in a postponement. Knew the weather was bad in Chicago and stacked Rockies and Diamondbacks. Didn't know the weather was bad in Minnesota and didn't check before lock time.

It was a weird night. I cashed a $3 GPP that had 4 zeros in my lineup. I stacked 3 Baltimore guys who had their games postponed + Kendrys Morales who got a zero and still scored 134 points.

You stacked Baltimore at Target Field. Interesting strategy.

I was purposely trying to be contrarian in a field of over 100k+ and used a bunch of chalky plays for the rest of the lineup. Rickard was only $2900 hitting lead off - as a visiting team the potential for 5 ABs was real, plus Trumbo & Jones were underpriced for their double dong potential. But yeah, not a great park to target power hitters.

Yeah, definitely a contrarian play. I imagine everyone will continue to play Rockies and Diamondbacks at Coors. Although I have a couple lineups and only a few. I don't think I'm stacking anyone tonight.

Coors ownership seemed a little bit lower than I anticipated last night - I don't think that will be the case tonight. Rubby De La Rosa is a gas can facing lefties. Meanwhile the Rockies are rolling out Rusin, and the Dbacks historically hit lefties well.

I am of the opinion that you virtually have to stack if you want to win a large GPP. Last night the Red Sox stack was the big winner.

And Rubby goes 7 1/3, 1 run on 4 hits with 6 Ks and a walk.

So glad I put Trumbo in my lineup today.

I have an Orioles stack going with Trumbo + Chris Davis that's also looking pretty good. I have Lemahieu and Arenado going later but am considering swapping to Segura + Lamb instead because Segura is hitting lead off and Lemahieu is hitting 6th. I'm torn.

Hope no one used Berrios as a GPP flyer.

I, of course, did. But luckily it was just one of about 10 random lineups I threw into the $3. Such a weird slate last night where I didn't really have confidence in a single starting pitcher... Whereas tonight it seems like every ace in MLB is throwing.

Been doing pretty well on Copa and Euro, but not a ton of money to win. Today I finished 4th in a $2 (free for me, because I cashed in my points). Won $11.50.
