TOP MLB Plays Today 9/27/17

Bringing the heat tonight, make it rain...

Power Pitching Targets:

  1. Rich Hill, LAD ($11,100 DK, $10,200 FD)Here's a Dodgers power pitcher who hasn't let the Padres walk all over him this year. 3 appearances, 3 perfect lineups. Our hypothesis of power pitching vs. Padres has been about 60% this year, but this looks more promising than most. He's relatively cheap considering the matchup, the fear is he gets yanked early on to reserve that precious arm for playoffs and not Padres. Otherwise the world is Rich Hill's Oyster with all this juicy sauce to support it: Dodger Stadium: #2 most pitcher-friendly park. SD's lineup has a 23.4% K rate vs lefties. SD's lineup has a .295 wOBA vs lefties. SD's lineup has a .133 ISO vs lefties. SD hitting .210 vs Rich Hill in 47 at bats. Scored 27.38 FPPG past 2 games. Oh, plus this is the latest game so it's always fun to have your whole lineup resting on Rich Hill's performance.

  2. Luis Severino ($12,400 DK, $10,300 FD) Man is pissed about his last showing. Got lit up by the Twins last week. He's really only got lit up 4times this season, so the odds of a repeat offense are pretty low - esp. against Tampa Bay. TB's lineup has a 24% K rate vs righties. All things considered Luis seems similar to a bicycle ride tonight... Sounds safe in theory, but you never know if you're going to be hit by a car.

Value Pitchers:

How most of you feel about baseball at this point in the season.

A boy stands in his yard with a baseball and bat...

He proudly proclaims "I'm the greatest batter in the world!" He proceeds to toss the ball in the air swings with all his might. He misses and falls to the ground. "Strike one". He tosses the ball again, keeping his eye on it and swings. The ball hits the found with a thud, "strike two". He tosses the ball once again and takes a home run swing, but the ball lands in the grass at his toes, "strike 3". He runs around the yard cheering with hands in the air, "I'm the greatest pitcher in the world!"

Good luck on this Wednesday, got a feeling it's your night! 🍀
