When is a remake not a remake? No, this isn't a riddle. I'm seriously curious how 'Anaconda' was considered a new 'song'. Sure, Nicki Minaj provided some new...um...lyrics? Is cackling after saying 'uluhdisfadazz' considered lyrics? Neither here nor there for my original question, I guess so really, taking the exact same beat from a previous rap song while even sampling lyrics from that song is considered a new tune? Cool, BRB, gonna go make my new song 'Straight Outta Eugene'. Great ideas come from the times I accidentally don't watch Nicki Minaj on mute on YouTube, I guess. But yeah, sorry, lost myself for a bit; title homage is to Sir Mix-A-Lot. The LA Ace is of course Kershaw who's spendy as all get out today but I really want to talk to you about that Oakland Goody in Jesse Chavez. Jesse is the classic home schooler as his ERA in O.Co (2.41) is nearly a run and a half lower than it is on the road (3.78). It also helps that his opponent for the day is the Mariners who have been an offensive wasteland for most of the year. It also helps the Mariners have been at or near the bottom in team K% for most of the year. All signs point to a solid return on that $7,000 price tag which you can pair with Clayton's $13,100 and still build a solid squad for your cash games. Even if you don't go with Clayton, locking in Chavez as your SP2 ain't a bad idea. It's better than tossing someone's salad like your name was Romaine...sorry, those 'lyrics' are still haunting me. But enough about Nicki Minaj nightmares, let's get on with it. Here's my booty-liscious takes for this Friday DK slate...
