    That Lester guy is having a helluva night for 11 large.

    Out of curiosity, why Colabello ? He's only a pinch hitter in NL parks..

    Interesting thread, I think it's time to lose some money and get an account.

    I subbed him out because he wasn't starting, but otherwise just because he hits left handlers well, was cheap, and Morgan is bad.

    I took a bath on Lester. It was a dumb pick. Less than 2 percent of people had him last night.

    How much have you spent on Draft Kings and are you in the black or red?

    Good question. Probably in the red right now, but that's because I was trying the big tournaments for a while, where only a small percentage win anything. I'm still kind of trying to figure it out. I'd have to add it all up.

    No Buehrle last night, Dick? Not that he would have been a big upgrade from Lester.

    Buehrle doesn't strike out enough people.

    Is this like a loophole somehow to the "no one cares about your fantasy team" mantra?
