FANTASYALARM THE DAILY ALARM

Good Morning!

Friday night college football is the sport at its most unserious, which is most of the appeal. Dan opens Week 4 with Clemson and California — the same Clemson that spent last Saturday's first half trailing UNC by 14 at home. And with the baseball regular season down to its final days, Mark is squeezing one last homer out of his favorite pitcher to target.

Here's what you need to know today.

MLB HR PICK
Munetaka Murakami (CWS)
To Hit a Home Run (+450)
It's the last time to enjoy our favorite starter to target for homers - Tomoyuki Sugano - so we can't pass this up. The Rockies righty allows a monster .282 ISO to lefties, as if the White Sox rookie didn't have enough power himself. He's mashing righties to the tune of a .294 ISO, and his only issue is whiffing. Well, that's something Sugano doesn't generate often, so this is the perfect matchup for Murakami's 100th percentile barrel rate.

MLB STOLEN BASE PICK
Wyatt Langford (TEX)
To Steal a Base (+384)
Twins righty Joe Ryan has allowed 19 stolen bases this season and continues to get hit around here late in the season. Langford has had an impressive year, posting a .352 wOBA with a 12-percent walk rate and 12 stolen bases against righthanded pitching this season. Combine that with the Twins catchers posting a miserable 15-percent combined caught-stealing rate and we'll take one more steal for the road.
