I don't intend to play more than twice a week, but they make me throw out recommendations on the Sirius XM show, and then I can't not play lest those calls turn out to be right. But before I dive into tonight's lineup, I should mention I had a bad day yesterday, taking back only $12.50 of my $85 investment for a loss of $72.50, bringing my bankroll down to $1,625.11. (The Dodgers abominable bullpen blowing Kershaw's win accounted for most of the loss.) In any event, here's today's lineup:

It's pretty simple what I did. I used Joe Kelly - who's pitched well his last two starts - against a weak Cleveland lineup and saved money to stack big bats. I used four Tigers against Jon Lester, who's been great lately, and three Cubs against Daniel Norris as well as Ian Desmond in Coors. My thinking was people will avoid Lester, and perhaps rightly so, but any pitcher can get shelled, and the Tigers have the bats to do it. Moreover, the wind is blowing out in Wrigley, so it's likely to play as a hitter's park. Put differently, if the Tigers light up Lester, I don't expect many other people to profit from it.

Incidentally, I set this lineup before the Tigers posted theirs, so if one of my four isn't playing, I'll have to make a substitution.

Update:

Victor Martinez isn't playing so I subbed in Wilson Ramos $2900 for now. If he's not playing, I might have to shuffle things around.
