Don't look now but once again the pitching for tonight is AWFUL!!! It is hard to have much confidence in any of these guys at all. Collin McHugh ranks as my top pitcher as he has some K potential and should be able to get a win against an awful Rangers team. The second ranked pitcher was difficult for me to narrow down. Bud Norris has pitched well at home but is just an average at best pitcher. Mike Minor has what you would expect is an easy match-up against the Mets who really struggle to hit at times but then will blow up a pitcher out of no where. Minor has also been prone to his own meltdowns but would be added bonus for him if David Wright remains out of the line-up. Sonny Gray was very good for most of the year but has recently experienced some struggles and takes a tough hitting Angels team.
The hitters will be led Justin Upton who destroys left handed pitching and has been on a major heater. With the cheap pitching, you should be able to get most any hitters you want tonight. Jose Abreu is likely to be highly owned along with Josh Donaldson as well. My favorite value plays of the evening are Eric Campbell, Mike Aviles and Johnny Gomes. David Wright could become a nice option at 3rd if he can return to the line-up.
Good Luck tonight hit me up in the comments section, on twitter @tedschuster or my e-mail at ted@fantasyalarm.com if you have any questions.
