Tuesday's Starting Pitcher Strategy
The top-ranked pitcher isn't the only ace taking the ball tonight. So, while he's listed as the best pick in cash games, he's also appealing in GPPs. The second pitcher on the table is a safe SP2 in cash games on DK. And the third and fourth listed pitchers are GPP options at both DFS providers.
Cash Game Recommendations:
Gerrit Cole (NYY) vs. SEA
Frankly, Cole has underperformed expectations. Having said that, he's still been quite good. According to FanGraphs, in 15 starts spanning 91.2 innings, Cole has a 2.75 ERA, 4.02 xERA, 3.86 xFIP, 1.11 WHIP, 7.8 BB%, 26.4 K% and 28.6 CSW%.
Additionally, Cole is a stud at home. In 237.1 innings at home since 2021, he's had a 3.07 ERA, 2.88 xFIP, 1.02 WHIP, 6.0 BB% and 32.7 K%. The veteran righty has an average matchup tonight. However, Seattle has a high strikeout rate (25.6 K%) against right-handed pitchers this year, elevating Cole's floor and ceiling. And per Betting Pros, the Yankees are -135, and the game's total is a pitcher-friendly 7.0 runs.
Tuesday's Hitter Strategy
The Reds are the top offense on a vast slate tonight. Although, the Angels are a fun stack in GPPs for gamers entering multiple lineups.
