BEAST DOME NATION.
It’s now or never time. Ask me your fantasy baseball questions as we head towards the end stretch of the season! #NowOrNever
Jaime Garcia: Pitched 8 INN allowing 10 Ks in his return to the mound. Must-Own in all leagues.
Chris Davis: Hot with his 2nd HR in as many days. Looking for 30 HRs this season.
David Murphy: Not Josh Hamilton is probably the hottest hitter on Texas, but that could change quickly.
Luis Cruz: Cock blocking Dee Gordon any chance of having the full-time gig at SS when he returns.
Jeremy Guthrie: Pitching like a CY Young candidate, not going to last.
Bryce Harper: Has found his swing again after a two and a half week slump.
Matt Harrison: Back to being elite on the mound.
Pedro Alvarez: Excellent sleeper this week.
Kyle Kendrick: Back-to-Back shutouts. Jeremy Guthrie 1.3, Kendrick is a bit more trustworthy against NL teams.
Ryan Vogelsong: Back-to-Back bad starts. I would not give him the Dan Haren tag yet.
Hiroki Kuroda: ELITE status.
Adrian Gonzalez: Starting to be a consistent 1st round value player again.
Ask me or anyone in the BEAST DOME NATION fantasy questions about players.

STACK OF THE DAY (AUGUST 20TH)
**NEW. NEW. I pick the stack of the day, you pick the hitters and see the points rally up.
Stack of the Day:
OAKLAND
Bad lefties never fair well against the A’s. Brian Duensing falls in that category.

Week 21:
OAK MONEY LINE
Brandon McCarthy is the ACE of that A’s pitching staff. The fact he has been injured for a majority of the season, and they still have a chance to make the post season is huge. Look for him to have an ELITE start at home against the struggling Twins who have Brian Dueinsing on the mound. Oakland loves facing bad left handed pitchers.
