Don't be scurred of this Bulldog
P James Shields Royals ($293,000, 29.3% of cap at Daily Joust - Play Now): Shields is like the American League version of last seasons Cliff Lee, good to great outings, but few wins. Well at this price, which is less than Felix Doubront (vs DET) and Chris Capauano, at least that's how it stands at Joust, I will be happy to take my chances with James Shields versus a White Sox team that is last in the Royals division. If you are looking for a lesser name, a great GPP guy, that even you may shake your head at is Angels Joe Blanton.
OF Jason Kubel DiamondBacks ($3,200, 9.1% of cap at Fan Duel - Play Now): Kubel is 4 for his last eight at-bats with a home run and a double and in his 2-for-5 off of Mat Latos the two hits have left the yard.
OF Michael Bourn Indians ($8.038, 8.0% of cap at Draft Street - Play Now): Bourn has three multi-hit games in his last four games, his batting .350 over his last four games, and gets a L/R matchup today.
OF Chris Dickerson Orioles ($2,000, 4% of cap at Draft Kings - Play Now): You get the L/R matchup versus RHP Josh Johnson who Dickerson is 4-for-7 off of in his career.
1B Eric Hosmer Royals ($7,600, 7.6% of cap at Draft Day - Play Now): Hosmer looking like he is turning the corner as he is 7 for his last 12 at bats, with a home run, triple, and two doubles. If you are not a believer in Hosmer, or just don't like his beard, and want another option consider Mariners Kendrys Morales.
3B Chase Headley Padres ($3,000, 8.6% of cap Fan Duel - Play Now): Hedley is 4-for-10 off of Capuano in his career. Another option for just a few dollars more that I like is Mariners Kyle Seager.
2B Emilio Bonifacio Blue Jays ($4,168, 4.2% of cap at Draft Street - Play Now): The Jays are hot and will face a favorable pitcher to hit in the Orioles Freddy Garcia, which could help Bono have a bigger Fantasy impact than he has lately.
SS Jed Lowrie Athletics ($76,000, 7.6% of cap at Daily Joust - Play Now): Lowrie has practically been a double-digit Fantasy producer the last three games and his facing Mariners Jeremy Bonderman. Â
C J.P. Arenacibia Blue Jays ($3,100, 8.9% of cap at Fan Duel - Play Now): Does J.P. stand for Just Parkn'em?Â
