Our MLB coverage including this Industry Expert Consensus article are nearing the end. We will have our final baseball articles for the season this Friday as we turn our attention the start of the NFL season. Today’s split slate brings us only nine games on the night slate with only one high-priced ace pitcher taking the mound which opens up the pitching options to a bunch of value options. On the hitting side there are five different potential stacking options but only one (Nationals) with more than three players included.
Be sure to check out our projected ownership percentages for Cash and GPP that are produced utilizing ownership result averages for each position by the number of experts that recommend them. They have performed very well so far. Utilize these projected ownership percentages to help determine your favorite lower-owned contrarian plays to give you an edge over the field.
