Mondays are just a mess. Most teams are traveling, the matchups that would seem to make sense sometimes just don't pan out because of...well I don't know what. I think travel fatigue plays a part. Look, we're all human. You travel from place A to place B, finally get into your humble abode and are you well rested? Do you feel a bit of the lag of the jet variety? Just to clue you in, athletes may be millionaires but they haven't built teleportation yet so just like you and I, they gotta deal with the troubles of travel. So for this Monday, I'm going a bit against the grain - unless that grain is for alcohol, then I'm all about said grain - and suggesting a pitcher who gets to enjoy a pitcher's park and there's no travel involved for him on this moving Monday. Said pitcher is Alex Colome, pronounced 'CALL-uh-may' but I just go with 'Call On Me' given his stats. Over 10 IP this year, he has 10 K and zero walks. I know, sample size small, obligatory 'that's what she said' following but the kid had aviary bird flu or sumpin' to start the year or we'd have a larger sampling to work with. Now the Yankees are a hard team to K (19.2% overall, 17.6% on the road) so we are really hoping for some of those old bones in that Yanks lineup to have themselves a sleepless in Tampa Bay moment. As the call ain't safe, it should be clear that this is a tourney only call and at $6,700, you don't have to break you DK wallet to see if his endline ends up as beautiful as that aerobics instructor. Yes, you gotta click the link to get it. No, you shouldn't really listen to the song. Yes, that is Steve Winwood...didn't I tell you not to listen? But enough of my talk about Swedish techno tracks, it's time for it. Here's my blazing hot take on the Monday DK slate...
