I spent Monday night watching one of my heretofore favorite live bands the BareNaked Ladies* completely mail-in in a performance riddled with new releases, old songs that no one recognized and their cash cow theme song from The Big Bang Theory that should never be played for more than fifteen seconds at a time (if it should be played at all). This was preceded by a Better Than Ezra opening performance which left me questioning everything I thought about music from the 90's that didn't involve Nirvana or Radiohead.
At first I resented them for mailing it in but then I realized that mailing it in when the stakes are low like a Monday night concert in Baltimore (or a John Deere Classic preview) is pretty much a Fantasy Golf Report calling card. So I forgive them as I hope you will forgive me for this late and lackluster effort. Just pick Zach Johnson or, if you're feeling frisky, go with Joaquin Niemann. The full breakdown of past performances is below. I figured it was the least I could do. The very least.
One and Done Pick: Zach Johnson
Other Guy I'd Pick: Joaquin Niemann
Sleeper Pick: Dylan Meyer
DraftKings Top Ten Values
Zach Johnson and Steve Stricker aren't the only guys who like playing golf in Silvis, Illinois. Wesley Bryan, Patrick Rodgers, Johnson Wagner and Scott Brown have all done some nice work out there in the middle of nowhere. Unfortunately, Bryan has been playing such awful golf that I'm not sure his relationship with the course matters at this point and I have a somewhat firm "Johnson Wagner Rule" which states that I will not pick Johnson Wagner.

* That's right. I love seeing those lightweight rock goofballs live. It always puts me in a good mood. At least it used to.
