This is what I need to have happen today and tomorrow…
1. Detroit and Minesota need to maintain their respective momentum. That is the only way to ensure that Justin Verlander will pitch tomorrow.
2. Five RBIs. Currently one behind Steve Moyer, I figure 5 will be enough to sneak by and gain a point.
3. Need to maintain my slim leads in stolen bases and ERA (no problem).
4. That will leave my All-Star mound quartet to work their mastery on Sunday. Verlander, Felix Hernandez, Wade Davis and Clay Buchholz. Three wins and 30 strikeouts will mean potentially 4-5 points.
This is exactly why we call it fantasy baseball.
Good luck to my fellow nail-biters, and thank goodness Lawr is going to keep his clothes on.
