Here is the Industry Expert Consensus picks for tonight’s 15-game slate. Without a true ace on the slate, the experts provide a wide variety of pitching options tonight. There is also five different hitter stacks to choose from which should spread out ownership percentages tonight. Also, I have included catchers that were selected by at least two experts to give a few more options behind the plate.
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.
