With a doubleheader, we’re left with a 14 game slate on DK tonight. What a poo pile to choose from on the mound tonight. It’s not complete poo but it’s certainly devoid of that stud arm you can just set and forget. With that, we do have a game at Coors so this could be the night to plug big hitters in and cross your fingers with the arms. Pay close attention to the weather this evening. Several spots where there could be PPD or have definite effects on starting pitchers. Good luck!
The Weighted Consensus for the MLB is where we publish an in-depth version of rankings every day that considers each expert’s current DailyOverlay score to generate a Weighted Consensus ranking. To calculate the Weighted Rank Score, each expert’s DailyOverlay score for hitters and pitchers is weighted on a sliding scale from 1 to 5 with the top expert in the current standings being weighted with a five while the last place expert is weighted with a one. This method gives the higher rated experts picks more weight when compiling the overall player rankings for the day. We will include all players that generate a Rank Score of at least 8.0.
The MLB Weighted Consensus article will be part of the premium content every day except Wednesday and the weekend this season. Sign up now for a FREE 7-day trial so you don’t miss any of the content here at DailyOverlay.
