NYY 1, CLE 0

Of course nobody picked my fellow avian-last-named 1B, because why would we, but what a nice moment for Greg Bird.

Not a bad moment for some poolies, though many of the points below were...niche interests:

Kipnis 1
Ramirez 1

Carrasco 4

Chapman 4

Generally, now is where the back of the pack starts to lose hope...but all four series are still in progress today (weather permitting here in NYC). Five of eight starters are picks, and of those, three are making their pool debuts. Plenty of pool left, as they say. (NB: No one says that.) 

All times ET:

1 PM 'Stros at Sox, Morton v. Porcello (FS1)
4 PM Nats at Cubs, Ol' Husky Eye v. Quintana (TBS)
7 PM Cleveland at Bombers, Bauer v. Severino (FS1)
10 PM L.A. at Snakes, Darvish v. Greinke (TBS)

Bonne chance!
