Weather to Watch Tonight
Only real weather concern tonight is in Chicago. As of now the forecast is calling for rain before and throughout the game which could affect the game being played. As of now this is not a very safe game.
Top Pitchers To Target Tonight
Alex Wood- If the Cubs game gets rained out or is to risky to play before lock then Wood would be the next guy to target on the slate. We have him ranked 2nd in our model with a Shark Rating of 72.91 and a 1.34 K/IP projection.He has been much better against right-handed batters this season with a K% over 25% and also 50% groundball rate as well this season. Wood is in play tonight as a great mid tier option pitcher on both sites.
Chris Paddack- This is a low strikeout matchup for Paddack tonight but he does have good splits against righties. We have the Nationals projected lineup to have at least 5-6 righties tonight so Paddock is projecting to have success. With a Sharks Rating of 72.13 he is a very good option tonight on both sites.
Other Pitchers To Consider
Zack Wheeler ( Weather Concerns)
Luis Garcia
Top Stacks To Consider
Toronto Blue Jays- We love targeting Matt Harvey and tonight is no different as the Blue Jays grade out as our top Stack on both sites Harvey gives up hard contact to both righties and lefties so full stacking the Jays tonight is a priority. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., George Springer, Marcus Semien, Bo Bichette and Teoscar Hernández lead the way in our model with Shark Ratings over 65+
