The Staff
Pitching is an absolute joke tonight, so I’m sticking to just 3 arms to plug in around my bats.
Peacock – He has double digit strikeout potential, but can also be hammered from the left side. He struck out 14 batters in 16 innings over the spring, and should get around an 80 pitch leash tonight.
(Risk factor 6)
Yarbrough – I rode this dude many times last year, winning a lot of money. He will come in after Stanek and faces a Colorado team without their best hitter, all while looking lost at the plate against Miami. If we can get 5 innings from him 25-30 fantasy points is definitely achievable.
(Risk factor 5)
Strahm – Another guy with huge strikeout ability. He’s very touch on righties and average against his own split, making him a bit reverse. As a starter last year, he had a 1.35 era and held hitters to a measly .146 average
(Risk factor 5)
The Bats
Houston – Smyly hasn’t pitched his 2016 where he gave up a ton of homers to righties. Houston is going to eat him alive
(All the righties and Brantley)
Seattle – Tearing the cover off the ball. Love this spot for them
(Healy, Haniger, Santana, Dee, E5)
Miami – Sneaky Stack here seeing Matz getting touted today. Miami can crush him and should after how bad he’s been in the spring.
(1-2-4-5 stack)
Atlanta – Hendricks is overrated, and has a mediocre fastball. Freeman and Acuna go back to back In the 1st.
(Freeman, Acuna, Albies, Donaldson)
