Monday pitching is da bidness, and bidness be good..

Power Pitching Targets:

  1. J. DeGrom, NYM  ($13,400 DK, $11,000 FD)  Comeback game for DeGrominator? I'm in. Last time around we warned you he was not going to live up to his potential. This time, we're telling you he is going to crush the Padres. This is the sort of game that DeGrom lives for.  With a stat like this: SD's lineup has a 25% K rate vs righties, and then you factor in his stud value... I think you have your answer for power pitching this evening. 

  2.  B. Peacock, HOU ($11,500 DK, $8900 FD) - WATCH WEATHER Bradley J. Peacock is RED hot this month. 4-0 this month, averaging almost 7K per game. EXTREMELY favorable matchup playing the last place Phillies (34/62). If that wasn't enough for you, here's the rest of the sauce: Houston is favored. Citizens Bank Park: #5 most pitcher-friendly park. AL Pitcher, not facing DH. PHI's lineup has a 21.5% K rate vs righties. Scored 24.58 FPPG past 6 games. Top 90% avg exit velocity past 30 days: 83.9 mph. Only bad news is the potential weather and averages 20.4% less FP while Away. If the weather seems agreeable closer to game time, this one is a no-brainer and well worth paying up for. HUGE bargain on FanDuel.

In MLB, a player with a .300 batting average is considered a good player and one with .350 is a great one. With around 26 times at bat per week, the difference between a good player and a great player is 1 hit per week.

Keep grinding, play everyday, and you that game changing win might be around the corner. Last week we suggested that you play every freeroll and sure enough some of you had great results. It should be no surprise that practice helps make you a better player, even in DFS land.
