DFS Amateur Hour - Wednesday Lineup

I set only one - of the $10 "Happy Hour" overlay variety, thanks to Kevin Payne messaging me that it was up. I was actually driving, had to pull over, quickly set a dummy lineup to get it in, then take five minutes to set a credible one. But before I get that, it's worth noting I netting $100 last night ($150 in gross, $50 buy-in), thanks in large part to a $75 cash in yesterday's Happy Hour. That extra $100 brings my bankroll back up to $1450.61.

Here's the Happy Hour lineup for tonight:

It's just an Orioles stack (they hit better at home) with a couple other big bats I was able to afford by going cheap on pitching. The Astros can put up runs, but they also strike out a lot. As I post this, I'm seeing they've already scored three on Walker, and he has only one strikeout, so this lineup is probably toast.
