Fire up the Cannons for the “Battle of the Jonathans!” Here’s to the one with the bat defeating the one who is a typically crappy pitcher.

TARGET MARKETS: H+R+R/TB (1u), HR (0.3u)

Quick note on the Target Markets section: These are the markets I’m going to be line/promo shopping for when the markets open up. Sometimes I will avoid them if they’re too juicy or the odds are just garbage (-130 and worse). Unit recommendation is a general guideline, but could change based on value.

You’ll pay Coors prices like always. Also worth noting that Contreras is 0-10 against Freeland, so fading is an option, but the numbers are there.
