TOP MLB Plays Today 8/11/17

It's the remix to ignition, Hot and fresh out the kitchen. It's the freakin' DFS weekend baby I'm about to have me some fun.

Power Pitching Targets:

  1. R. Hill, LAD ($12,200 DK, $9300 FD)Dodgers pitching is unfair. They're like the cheat code. Rich is 37 years old and pitching like he's 20. The risk here, is he could get a blister mid game and bail on you. However, if the old man strength sticks, he will punish the Padres in a way few have seen before. Well, I guess the Padres have seen it before because in early July he literally demolished them. SD hitting .170 vs Rich Hill in 29ab with 11strikeouts. There's too much sauce to list here: Los Angeles is heavily favored. [-320] Home court advantage, Dodger Stadium: #2 most pitcher-friendly park. Classic Padres suck vs. Lefties line: SD's lineup has a 22.8% K rate vs lefties. SD's lineup has a .304 wOBA vs lefties. SD's lineup has a .131 ISO vs lefties. Add the fact he's on a heater: 24.01 FPPG in 8 Big Favorite games, 18.88 over 14 games. 23.41 FPPG in 7 Blowout games, 18.88 over 14 games. Diamond Rich Hill is one of the safer plays this year in terms of power pitchers. Absolutely a STEAL on FanDuel.  

  2. C. Carrasco, CLE ($9700 DK, $8900 FD)Carlos has been humbled recently. You can interpret that in two ways. Either he's ready for the revenge game, or he'll stay in the slump. TB has been relatively soft lately, so we're giving him the benefit of doubt here. TB's lineup has a 22.3% K rate vs righties. TB hitting .160 vs Carlos Carrasco in 44 at bats. Averaging 25.8% more FP while Away. Then again, he's stuck in a slump. Could be a benefit because he's cheaper than he should be given the upside if the old Carlos returns. TL;DR - TB isn't great vs. Righties, Carlos has good history vs them, but he hasn't been Carlos as of late.
