13:30 - Edwin Diaz returning Thursday

18:00 - Here are the best picks, by round. Using the Rotowire AAV calculator. I thought that we could work from the bottom to the top, looking at these names from a few angles…..what did we miss?......is this sustainable?.....are there common themes in the names in general?

(the specific dollar values are from Sunday, when I had time to create the chart. I’m sure they’ve only moved a dollar since then)

18:45 - Ryan O’Hearn / Cole Irvin (Rd. 30)
