People of Planet Earth, please, pay for your aces. On a slate that features quite a few, there is no need to tempt fate by not building around at least one solid top tier arm and a mid-tier to make it happen. Oh sure, there will that voice inside your head that says, "Hey, Kyle Kendrick fooled everyone Opening Day and was a huge bargain!". That's the voice that needs to be driven out into the middle of the DFS cornfields and left without cab fare back to where you are rostering players.
Clayton Kershaw, Johnny Cueto, Madison Bumgarner and David Price are all on the docket, much like the aforementioned Opening Day (don't get excited, Kendrick). Kershaw at over 12K may be too pricey to engage, but Bumgarner (9.8K) and Cueto (9.5K) might be excellent targets for your ace itch. Ace itch may not sound good, but to get a good core for your evening roster, especially with so many teams going, you may just need to stop thinking and scratch.
One more thing going into the list below: Whenever teams are in Toronto and Denver, I love the stars where you can fit them in. You'll be harder pressed to do so if you've rostered aces at SP like tonight, but I didn't want the list to go by and have you wonder, "Gee, doesn't he like Adam Jones, Troy Tulowitzki, Jose Bautista, Chris Davis, et al.?" The answer is, yes, yes I do. Now onto the other guys.
