TOP MLB Plays Today 8/16/17
Wacky Wednesday is here with some easy calls and some tough ones. We'll let you decide which way to go from here...
Power Pitching Targets:
Y. Darvish, LAD ($13,700 DK, $10,400 FD)The clear top pick for power pitching tonight. So damn expensive tho. He should have the leg up on the White Sox this evening. Here's the rest of the sauce: Los Angeles is heavily favored. [-320] Dodger Stadium: #2 most pitcher-friendly park. CHW's lineup has a 25.5% K rate vs righties. Extremely hot with 32.2 FPPG past 2 games. Top 90% avg exit velocity past 30 days: 83.2 mph. There's not much downside, but I'll try to highlight a few: White Sox can hit righties when they aren't striking out. CHW's lineup has a .333 wOBA vs righties. CHW's lineup has a .162 ISO vs righties. I also don't like Rodon on the other side, he's fairly hot himself and can run interference against the Dodgers. Overall, looks like Yu should play Darvish, just know the man gives up some runs.
C. Carrasco, CLE ($11,100 DK, $9600 FD) - WEATHERWatch the weather in this one. If it clears up, this might be your jam tonight. Ideal situation is wind keeps blowing in and storm blows by. Facing the Twins Carrasco has an ideal matchup tonight. MIN's lineup has a 22.7% K rate vs righties. Averaging 31.8% more FP while Away. If the weather can't stick, consider Charlie Morton (HOU) as a more palatable power pitcher. HUGE bargain on FD.
Honorable mention, Cole Hamels has been particularly hot as of late and pretty reasonable price tonight vs. Detroit. Deserves some serious consideration.
