Roto Riteup: October 4, 2015
The season-finale of the Roto Riteup is here, but unfortunately there’s no wedding to draw massive ratings. We wrap up 2015 with a look at some of those players who have done well to end the season.
Thank you for having some fun with Wiers and I this season, and we hope to see you in 2016.
On today’s agenda:
1. Fun with arbitrary endpoints
2. Streaming Pitcher Options

Streaming Pitcher Options
If you enjoy streaming pitchers or play DFS, tune into the Roto Riteup for recommendations each and every day.
A pitcher for today: J.A. Happ vs CIN (Josh Smith)
Happ’s NL devil magic should continue on the last day of the season.
Another pitcher for today: David Buchanan vs MIA (Adam Conley)
Buchanan’s 7.54 ERA this season sure is ugly, but he’s better than that and has put together three straight solid starts. Against the Marlins and Conley, Buchanan should be able to get a win.
A pitcher for tomorrow: Sadness vs Loathing (Depression)
