TOP MLB Plays Today 8/28/17

Meager 10 games, you can beat this. Pitching seems pretty cut and dry to me, you absolutely have to pay up for a pitcher tonight...

Power Pitching Targets:

  1. Max Scherzer, WAS ($14,100 DK, $11,500 FD) There's only one thing that worries me about this matchup. His name rhymes with Schmon Schmarlo Schmanton... and he's hotter than fire itself. The good news is, in 15AB vs. MadMax he's only hit one long bomb. Next closest is Yelich who's wayyy down the list. So, even if Scherz gives up 2 to Giancarlo tonight, you'll be more than satisfied with the strikeouts in return... MIA hitting .210 vs Max Scherzer in 136 at bats. There's only two reasons you'd fade Scherzer tonight: his crazy price, and if you buy into the fact they might rest him quickly based on future needs. Decent deal on FanDuel.

  2. Corey Kluber, CLE ($13,100 DK, $ 11,200 FD) Yankees are scary. Two good things about Kluber: Cheaper than Scherzer, better overall matchup. NYY hitting .170 vs Corey Kluber in 81 at bats. What worries me, is Yankees have a better overall attack vs. Kluber. Then again, on Aug 3rd, Kluber made the Yankees his bitch and dropped an 11strikeout, 1ER game. The crowd favorite here is Kluber, and given the price savings it's certainly going to be the preferred option for many considering we've come to expect at least 7 strikeouts from this man nightly. What I don't like? Severino on the other side of the coin. Really solid pitching matches can sometimes mess with an ace, I don't think that's the case tonight, but it could be.

There's always the chance it's a power pitcher flop night. I don't think that's the case this evening. To that regard, you

have one of the above top tier SP.

K all day, the MadMax way.

Tonight's going to be madness. Pitching is key. I know a ton of you already are MVP's, however I can't wait to see more of you join LineStar MVP after winning $100+ tonight. Good luck.
