I usually write some words here at the top of the article. I learned over the offseason that google thinks you’re a bot if you use the same introduction twice.
AGENDA
The double homer binge continues. Another three sluggers went deep twice. It’s not even that warm yet.
AGENDA
Today’s edition will be ever-so-slightly truncated. I took a bad hop to the dome last night, and now I’m working on short rest.

Today’s chat honoring the life and deeds of Starling Marte is complete. The answer to the last question is Jesse Hahn. If anybody knows Pete, tell him to come collect his prize.

: Yea, so let’s get this out of the way. |

: You’re all going to ask about Austin Meadows, I think we’ll see him for a 1-2 months of these 80 games |

: For now, Adam Frazier will continue to absorb OF starts. Maybe we see some Bell out there too. Alen Hanson seems like he should be utile enough to do some OF too. |
There’s nothing more obnoxious than picking the best player of the day when the rest of your lineup decides to take a breather. What happened Cubbies?

Welcome back from a Grind-less weekend. Let’s get back to work, shall we?
UPDATE: The link for today’s Invitational is now correct.
AGENDA
I just want to point out that I didn’t say Josh Tomlin would be good. I said he adjusted his release point, had more arm side movement, and might be fantasy relevant. Yesterday, he allowed seven runs and recorded just five outs against the lowly White Sox. While I did personally pick him up in a couple leagues, I did not even consider starting him. I probably should have relayed that information yesterday.
AGENDA
If you weren’t paying close attention, you might have missed Trey Mancini’s pair of home runs. He was overshadowed by Giancarlo Stanton doing the same.
AGENDA
The Mets stack went wild yesterday versus Clay Buchholz and Adam Morgan. They were just one of many highly desirable options on the table. Hopefully you grabbed a share of them, especially Yoenis Cespedes and Lucas Duda. Listed prices are for FanDuel.
AGENDA
Yesterday’s synthetic rubber match between Charlie Morton and James Paxton lived up to expectations. Both pitched marvelously, although Morton appeared to fatigue mid-way through the outing. Between the third and fourth innings, his command declined from 60 to 40 on the 20-80 scouting scale. This isn’t uncommon, especially early in the season. The Mariners have a tough lineup. Two lengthy plate appearances accounted for one-fifth of his pitches.
Paxton’s command remains inconsistent, flashing between 20 and 70 on the scale. I’d estimate that one of every nine pitches missed his target by more than two feet. Then he’d follow it up by painting a lower corner. He steamrolled a very potent Astros offense. Both lived around 96-97 mph with their fastballs.
