Friday's Starting Pitcher Strategy
Many high-caliber pitchers are toeing the slab tonight. However, the first two players listed above are the most desirable picks in cash games and GPPs. The third and fourth pitchers on the table are the best SP2 picks at DK and useful darts in GPPs at FD.
Cash Game Recommendations:
Logan Webb (SF) vs. BOS
Webb lives up to his billing as an ace when he gets the ball in his home ballpark. According to FanGraphs, in 234.2 innings at home since 2021, Webb has had a 2.38 ERA, 2.73 xFIP, 1.11 WHIP, 60.1 GB%, 5.5 BB%, and 25.8 K%.
The righty is also an excellent bet to pitch a quality start. According to ESPN, Webb is tied for first in quality starts this year with 15.
Thankfully, the matchup and betting info tonight are stellar, too. The Red Sox are just 19th in wRC+ (94) and have a 23.4 K% on the road this season. And per Betting Pros, the Giants are -150, and the game's total is only 7.5 runs.
Friday's Hitter Strategy
The Braves are the most exciting offense to get exposure to in DFS. However, their salaries are tough to stack under the cap. Fortunately, the Twins and Mariners have cap-friendly options to mix in. Therefore, Atlanta, Minnesota and Seattle are excellent sources for hitters tonight.
