Marc’s Picks for the RealTime 50/50 Challenge, July 14, 2018

Want to take on the Creativesports 2.0 staff, braino-y-braino, at  DFS?

Well, you can indeed at RealTime Sports, matching up against my Creativesports 2.0 mates and me, and get some bragging rights in the process.

Tune in here daily, as we pick up the Creativesports 2.0 gauntlet where you can play our daily 50/50 game ($5) or come right after us — for we will rotate experts — on Fridays in the free Beat the Experts contest. Beat us and you can win $2, and that might be easier than you think!

Checking in with Mother Nature, the weather looks ok but check before lineups lock at 7:15.  For the first time in a while, we have a pretty good six game slate on Saturday night.  There is an ace among the starting pitchers, but beware that Clayton Kershaw has not gone beyond six innings since returning from recent injury.

Andrew Heaney ($4,300) faces the Dodgers for a second straight start.  Short of a Yasiel Puig three-run home run last Sunday night Heaney controlled the Dodgers and punched out ten.  I see no reason not to expect more of the same (except Puig will not be hitting home runs from the DL).

Mitch Haniger ($3,400) and Dee Gordon ($3,300) take advantage of the Mariners visit to Coors field.  Oh yes, in the intro I did fail to mention that we have a Coors game on the slate.

Rostering these cheap Mariners bats along with the cheap starting pitcher allows you to load up on almost any other bats you want.
