No time to talk today. The US Open is taking up all my time. Tiger just posted a -1 first round. It’s never a good sign for the rest of the field when Tiger is lurking on Day One. I still managed to squeeze in a little bit of daily fantasy baseball research, of course.
My top pitcher to target tonight is Shaun Marcum. I would be a fan of Joe Blanton, as well, if it weren’t for weather concerns. I will be avoiding all Phillies and Twins players entirely due to 80% chance of thunderstorms.
