Tuesday's Starting Pitcher Strategy
The top pitcher has a fitting salary for an ace. However, in an excellent matchup, he has a desirable blend of a high floor and a high ceiling. The second-ranked pitcher is a high-upside pivot. And the final two hurlers are the best SP2 picks in cash games and tournaments at DK, with compelling cases to be used in GPPs on FD.
Cash Game Recommendations:
Clayton Kershaw (LAD) vs. MIN
Kershaw doesn't seem to care that he's on the back nine for his 30s. According to FanGraphs, the lefty ace has a 2.36 ERA, 3.28 xERA, 3.11 xFIP, 0.95 WHIP, 5.2 BB%, 29.0 K% and 32.7 CSW% in eight starts this season, totaling 49.2 innings.
Thankfully, Kershaw can build on his brilliant numbers in a mouthwatering matchup. The Twins are 28th in wRC+ (76) and have a 27.0 K% against southpaws this year. And, per Betting Pros, the Dodgers are -200, and the game's total is only 7.5 runs. Thus, Kershaw's blend of superb numbers, the matchup and the ideal betting info makes him the top pitcher tonight.
Tuesday's Hitter Strategy
The Cardinals are the most exciting stack. However, the Reds and Mariners are fun alternatives. Additionally, I love mixing the three offenses in partial stacks tonight.
