Probably our favorite Daily Fantasy Sports MLB play on the day Saturday would be David Price of the Detroit Tigers as starting pitcher.
While priced at $10200, he is coming off a loss. But more importantly perhaps, he’s allowed only 31 hits off of 147 at bats versus the current White Sox roster. There were two homeruns permitted over this time frame.
He has had trouble against Adam Eaton, who is 7-for-12 against him, and despite his .238 ERA, has hit in nine of his last ten starts so expect one or two hits here from Eaton.
Ryan Zimmermann is 11-for-21 against the Cubs Jason Hammel.
Ian Kinsler is 14-for-41 against John Danks with 4 homeruns and 5 RBIs.
The game with the highest total today is not surprisingly Miami vs. Colorado (10.5).
Troy Tulowitzki hit 3-for-4 last night with one run for the Rockies.
Brandon Barnes hit 2-for-4 against Miami last night
Wilin Rosario has hit in half of his last 10 games and one-for-two against the Marlins David Phelps.
J.T. Realmutu went crazy for the Marlins last night, hitting 4-for-4.
Oddsmakers were also anticipating a high scoring affair between the Mets and Diamondbacks again Saturday night.
Arizona batters are performing well at home. They go up against Bartolo Colon this evening.
Jordan Pacheco is 2-for-3 against him with a double.
A.J. Pollock hit 3-for-4 last night.
Peter Bourjos has some value here against Clayton Kershaw. He is 4-for-11 off him with a homerun.
