Pitching looks fairly straight forward tonight. I think you'll like what you read...

Power Pitching Targets:

  1. Carlos Carrasco, CLE ($13,200 DK, $1 FD)Carlos tuned the White Sox up masterfully last week. Now he's got another dream matchup vs. the Tigers. He's in full stride right now, with almost everything going for him. Here's the sauce: DET's lineup has a 23.4% K rate vs righties. DET's lineup has a .304 wOBA vs righties. DET's lineup has a .124 ISO vs righties. DET hitting .200 vs Carlos Carrasco in 98 at bats. Scored 32.88 FPPG past 3 games. 27.09 FPPG in 6 Blowout games, 20.79 over 16 games. Top 90% avg distance past 30 days: 174.0 feet. The one bad thing? He's pitching at home where he's struggled. Averaging 29% less FP while Home. 16.14 FPPG in 7 Home games, 20.79 over 16 games. Should that deter you from this extra spicy matchup? Probably not. Every time he's met Tigers this season, he's left them emotionally battered.

  2. Zack Greinke, ARI ($11,800 DK, $ FD) I'll start with the bad news. Colorado can hit righties. Chase field isn't good for pitchers. Good news?? Colorado can't hit THIS righty and he's very experienced at Chase field. Averages 38.9% more FP while Home. 25.38 FPPG in 8 Home games, 20.76 over 15 games. Top 80% avg distance past 30 days: 188.7 feet. Greinke has LIT up the Rockies in 3/4 matchups and the 4th one, he still got 7 strikeouts. There's few certain things in life, but Greinke doing the Rockies dirty is very likely.  

  3.  Kenta Maeda, LAD ($9900 DK, $9 FD) - GPP/ContrarianAnother dream matchup for Maeken. He's been hot/cold as of late, and stumbled against an easy matchup with the Dbacks. Giants have their moments, and Dodgers losing 10 in a row being 1-15, there's blood in the water. You can bet the pressure is on Maeda to provide tonight. Dodgers fans are losing faith. Not only is their NL record on the line, their very hearts and souls are laid to bare. Wind is blowing out ever so slightly. It was only 6 days ago SF's home paper wrote "Giants lose again — officially worst team in majors", let's hope the Kenta & Dodgers prove them correct.

Carrasco/Greinke will see high ownership, deservedly so. Maeda has ace upside with lower salary, and likely low ownership based on Dodger blues.
