Jon gave you a full breakdown of the slate. I like this day slate today and wanted to drop some GPP plays. We’ve got a 5 game slate and four of the matchups project as total shootouts: PIT/SD (10.97 total), CIN/SF (10.86), CLE/LAA (10.37), and CHC/ARI (9.98). Meanwhile, PHI/SEA sits stranded on an island at a ridiculously low 7.33 total. That single low scoring game completely reshapes how you build lineups today.

The crowd is blindly piling into Jesus Luzardo (54% owned) and Landen Roupp (26%). One is elite chalk; the other is a massive trap. Meanwhile, the second-best pitcher on the entire slate is sitting at low ownership, and there’s massive leverage hidden in the bottom half of Cleveland’s lineup.
