    GAME 1:
    not even sure who's starting tonight; loss
    edit: some game named spermcamp with a 6.20 era/5.26 fip starting tonight; loss

    re-edit: yimi on the bump; loss

    GAME 2:
    billingsley throws a complete game/three-hit shutout and hits two hr's; we lose 9-0
    after the game, he flips off the crowd and dry humps alana rizzo

    GAME 3:
    kersh throws 7 shutout innings, but we can't score
    yimi gives it up in the 8th; we lose 4-0
    after the game, kershaw demands to be traded

    GAME 4:
    correia pitches the game of his life and shuts us out through 9
    zack is even better, taking a perfect game to the bottom of the 8th... when dbb inexplicably pinch hits for him
    kenley comes out for the 9th, gets two quick k's, and then a routine fly ball to right...
    that puig butchers into a 4-base error
    we lose 1-0
    after the game, greinke officially announces his retirement

    Daily Dime: It's a good day for Dodgers, Phils
    by Andy Behrens | Dodgers Nation — 2 hours ago

    Joc Pederson, OF, vs. Phi (O'Sullivan), $3300 at FanDuel: Left-handed hitters have slashed .369/.424/.730 against O'Sullivan so far this season (41-for-111, 20 XBH), which is, of course, ridiculous. Seems like a good day to stack a few Dodgers LHBs, doesn't it? I'm rolling out 2-3 in pretty much all lineups.

    Wei-Yin Chen, P, at Min (Hughes), $7800: Here's a quality low-cost alternative to Monday's priciest pitchers (Sale, Keuchel, Carrasco), for those looking to squeeze a few luxury bats onto a roster. Chen has limited opponents to two runs or less in each of his last five starts, and in 10 of his last 14. He's had some good fortune on balls-in-play, true (.257 BABIP), but it's not as if we're talking about a guy with a poor history. He's facing a lineup that ranks No. 13 in the A.L. in both homers (66) and team OBP (.302), so there's no great reason to fear today's opponent.

    Yasmani Grandal, C, vs. Phi (O'Sullivan), $3200: Please see the Pederson blurb for details. Also note that Grandal has three multi-hit games in his last four starts.

    Cesar Hernandez, 2B, at LAD (Surkamp), $3000: Yup, I'm all over this Phillies-Dodgers matchup. Hernandez gets to face an exceedingly sketchy left-handed starter on Monday; Surkamp's career major league WHIP is 1.73, and he wasn't exactly shredding the PCL (4.50 ERA, 1.53 WHIP). Over the past 16 games, Hernandez has been on an insane tear: 28-for-65, 14 R, 10 RBIs, 6 BB, 8 SB. He's also slashing .400/.481/.467 vs. LHPs for the year.

    Andre Ethier, OF, vs. Phi (O'Sullivan), $2400: OK, this will be my last Dodgers position player, I swear. Ethier is having a quality season, as most of you know, hitting .270/.353/.473 with 10 HR. If you need additional convincing, I'll refer you to this Matchup Ratings blurb:

    Ethier is slugging .556 and hitting .356 (16-for-45) against soft-throwing righties like O'Sullivan in the last two seasons.

    Alexei Ramirez, SS, vs. Tor (Buehrle), $2200: If you dig deep in the shortstop pool, you'll find a few familiar names among the minimum-price players, including Alexei. He's having a disastrous season, obviously, so the price tag fits. Still, he's 5-for-11 with a steal and a pair of walks over his last three games, plus he has a decent history against Buehrle, if that's your thing (4-for-9, 0 Ks).

    A.J. Burnett, P, vs. SD (Shields), $9100: Burnett is a high-K starter pitching at home, facing a team that ranks dead-last in the N.L. in on-base percentage. He's held opponents to two earned runs or less in 13 of his 16 starts this season, so it's not as if he hasn't been consistent. The only Pads hitters who've handled him well over the years are Justin Upton (8-for-16, 2 HR) and Will Venable (9-for-22, 2 HR).

    Melky Cabrera, OF, vs. Tor (Buehrle), $2600: Cabrera began showing signs of life a couple weeks ago, when he delivered that 5-for-5 line against Texas. He's hit safely in seven of his last eight, with three multi-hit games and four XBHs during that stretch. He also owns Buehrle, just so you know: 17-for-30, 4 doubles, two HR, two Ks.


    Maikel Franco, 3B, at LAD (Surkamp), $3300: Yes, that's right, half of today's recommended plays are coming from a single game. That's what you get when the schedule is a little light, and O'Sullivan matches up against Surkamp. Franco has remained scorching-hot, with nine multi-hit games in his last 16. He's hit four homers in 34 at-bats against lefties this year, so the matchup is plenty appealing.

    Jhonny Peralta, SS, at CHC (Lester), $3100: I suppose an all-star hangover is possible, but Peralta has been so steady, and the guy has a nice history against Lester: 8-for-31, 3 HR, 5 BB. At this price, I'm in.

    Nothing like starting a series with a bullpen day..

    Donnie Dum Dum at his finest.

    Fucking idiot.


    Teh Tin Man will beat Anderson. Mainly because DDD will burn out the bullpen so the relief help will be hopeless.

    I'll be beyond pissed, I don't care what bullshit happens if we don't win at least 3/4 here. Come on guys, Philly is one of the worst teams in years.

    Good start. Get a reliever up.

    Might as well. Garcia is only slated to pitch two innings.

    It looks like Don's strategy of batting Garcia 8th might work out perfectly... assuming Garcia can get through the 2nd inning.
