DK Pitching Pricing 8/12 Early Slate

Did anybody else look at these prices and just LOL?

Shields $10900 Iwakuma $10400 Nola $9600

For the record in their last starts Shields was $8600, Iwakuma was $7800, and Nola was $6000.

Is this just because it's an early slate and will prevent people from having large amounts of $ left over? Because if you play the full day slate, it's hard to warrant any of them at that price. EW
