Weather
The weather looks good for tomorrow as we have a good-looking 10-game slate to indulge in.
Pitching
Robbie Ray ($10,100)
Ray has been lights out all season long and is a legitimate Cy Young contender. We know that the strikeout upside is there (double digits K’s in each of his last three starts) but the refreshing thing to note is that Ray has kept his walks in check, something that has burned him in the past. He’s still giving up his share of home runs but when you’re backing those up with strikeouts and limiting the walks they don’t hurt as much.
Dylan Cease ($9,400)
The young fireballer Cease has put together back to back solid starts with 28.8 and 33.9 DK points respectively. The last time Cease faced the division-rival Royals he dominated over six scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts.
Taijuan Walker ($7,700)
Walker has been a bright spot for the Mets this season offering some stability in the middle of the rotation, stability that I didn’t think was possible based on his injury history. At $7,700 he’s a nice SP2 option facing the Washington Nationals.
Also consider:
Nick Pivetta ($7,200)
Zach Davies ($6,200)
Luis Castillo ($8,900)
Stacks
New York Yankees
D.J. Lemahieu, Joey Gallo, Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton
After an exciting walk-off win for the Yankees 4-3 on Friday the Orioles returned the favor defeating the Yankees 4-3 on Saturday. The Yankees have been scuffling with the bats somewhat of late but in this spot against Keegan Akin the bats should have no trouble putting up a crooked number.
Toronto Blue Jays
George Springer, Marcus Semien, Vlad Guerrero, Jr., Bo Bichette
Oakland’s starter Cole Irvin has battled all season and has been rock solid with a sub-4 era. The problem is that the Jays come in averaging five runs with one of the deeper lineup in the American League. This is the expected top four in the lineup so, as you could imagine, these guys will cost you a pretty penny.
Chicago White Sox
Luis Robert, Yoan Moncada, Jose Abreu, Eloy Jimenez
Brady Singer has been solid of late and the White Sox bats have been hot and cold over the past two weeks. I personally love Robert in the leadoff spot with Moncada hitting second. Righties and lefties have hit Singer equally well this season with both sides posting a wOBA over .320. Lefties, though have posted a higher hard-hit rate which makes Yasmani Grandal (assuming he starts) an attractive fifth-leg to consider here.
