MLB Grind Down: Tuesday, August 11th
The RotoGrinders MLB Grind Down article will give you an in-depth analysis into the MLB schedule. This article will break down the numbers for every single game and give you analysis on which trends you can exploit. While matchups are a major factor in daily fantasy baseball, there are plenty of other factors to consider such as injuries, weather, and salaries.
The analysis should point you in the right direction, but it is still up to you to decipher the information and make your own selections. No sport has more variance than baseball. The best choice is not always the right choice but following the trends will win you money over time.
Remember, these writeups are done prior to lineups being released, so make sure to check our Starting Lineups page to ensure the recommended options are playing.

Toronto Blue Jays Offense (2015)
vs. RH Pitching: wOBA: 0.330 (Rank: 2) — Strikeout Rate: 18.8% (Rank: 6)
Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.355 (Rank: 4) — Strikeout Rate: 16.6% (Rank: 5)
Pitchers per PA: 3.82 (Rank: 14)
Analysis: Graveman has not pitched well recently, posting a 6.20 ERA (4.13 SIERA) with a strikeout rate of 18.4% over the last month of play. He walks too many batters and he has an awful matchup against the Blue Jays, who are ranked second in team wOBA and sixth in team strikeout rate against right-handed pitching. He also has to face them in the hitter-friendly Rogers Centre.
Pitcher Rating: 35.0
Drew Hutchison : FD: $8,300 — DK: $5,700

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.264 (Rank: 29) — Strikeout Rate: 18.3% (Rank: 6)
Pitchers per PA: 3.87 (Rank: 7)
Analysis: Hutchison has failed to recover his early season form, but he is a huge favorite tonight against the A’s. His upside is somewhat limited against an Oakland team that has the fifth-lowest strikeout rate against right-handed pitching, but he should be a cheap source for the win tonight. There are better options in cash games, but he’s a good value play for tournaments on DraftKings at a price of only $5,700.
Pitcher Rating: 68.8
Batter Grind Down
Oakland
The A’s draw a decent matchup tonight against Drew Hutchison, who has given up a .320+ wOBA to both left and right-handed hitters over the last two seasons. The A’s also see a nice ballpark boost playing in the Rogers Centre. There are a few hitters in play here, but none stand out as must-starts at their respective positions.

Toronto
The Blue Jays have one of the highest team totals on the board tonight. Not only do they get to face the struggling Kendall Graveman, but they get to face him at home. The Blue Jays’ hitters are in play for cash games and tournaments. Don’t be afraid to employ a stack here.

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.326 (Rank: 15) — Strikeout Rate: 22.9% (Rank: 26)
Pitchers per PA: 3.91 (Rank: 3)
Analysis: Severino pitched well in his major league debut, striking out seven batters while only allowing a single earned run against the Red Sox. He is the Yankees’ top pitching prospect and he won’t be priced this low for much longer. He draws a fairly difficult matchup tonight against the Indians, who are ranked 16th in team wOBA and 9th in strikeout rate against right-handed pitching this season. He’s still too risky for cash games, but fire him up in tournaments.
Pitcher Rating: 74.2
Carlos Carrasco : FD: $9,800 — DK: $10,100

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.361 (Rank: 3) — Strikeout Rate: 19.3% (Rank: 13)
Pitchers per PA: 3.89 (Rank: 4)
Analysis: Carrasco has been terrific over the last month of play, posting a 2.56 SIERA with a strikeout rate of 25.2%. He draws one of the worst matchups on the board tonight, though. On the season, the Yankees are ranked fourth in team wOBA and sixth in team strikeout rate against right-handed pitching. The Yankees’ offense has been reeling lately, but it’s hard to pay this price for a pitcher in such a bad matchup.
Pitcher Rating: 82.1
Batter Grind Down
NY Yankees
Even though I won’t be targeting Carlos Carrasco against the Yankees, I will likely pass on the hitters in this lineup as well. Since the start of the 2014 season, Carrasco has held both left and right-handed hitters under a .280 wOBA over the last two seasons. The Yankees are secondary fantasy options at best tonight.

Cleveland
The Indians face the Yankees’ top pitching prospect tonight, who is only making his second career major league start. It’s hard to predict how these young pitchers are going to fare in their first few starts, but Luis Severino is the real deal. The Indians should be considered secondary plays tonight at home.

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.324 (Rank: 16) — Strikeout Rate: 23.3% (Rank: 29)
Pitchers per PA: 3.88 (Rank: 6)
Analysis: Rusin is one of the many Rockies’ pitchers that can easily be avoided. His SIERA suggests that he has been pitching better recently, but he continues to give up a lot of runs. He has a low strikeout rate and he is one of the biggest underdogs on the board tonight. The Mets may not have a great offense, but they have been much better in recent weeks.
Pitcher Rating: 47.0

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.349 (Rank: 5) — Strikeout Rate: 24.0% (Rank: 30)
Pitchers per PA: 3.76 (Rank: 23)
Analysis: Harvey is finally starting to find his form, posting a 1.77 ERA (3.59 SIERA) with a strikeout rate of 22.6% over the last month of play. The best part is that he has only given up a single walk in his last three starts combined. I expect another strong start from the ‘Dark Knight’ tonight, as the Rockies are a much different team offensively away from Coors. Zack Greinke is obviously a strong play against the Nationals, but Harvey is right there with him as the top pitching option on the board.
Pitcher Rating: 88.9

The Rockies draw a very difficult matchup tonight against Matt Harvey in the pitcher-friendly Citi Field. They have one of the lowest team totals on the board and they can safely be avoided in all league formats.

The Mets draw a favorable matchup against Chris Rusin, who has given up a .371 wOBA to both left and right-handed hitters over the last two seasons. Yoenis Cespedes is the top play here, but Daniel Murphy and Travis d’Arnaud are also worth a look.

Analysis: Perez had a decent start to his rookie season, but he now owns an average 4.70 SIERA with a low strikeout rate of 15.9%. He walks too many batters and he gets very little in terms of run support. He is an easy pitcher to avoid tonight against the Rays, who have the highest team wOBA over the last 14 days of play.

Analysis: Ramirez has quietly pitched well recently, posting a 3.83 SIERA with a strikeout rate of 16.5% over the last month of play. He draws a decent matchup against the Braves, although they do have the third-lowest strikeout rate against right-handed pitching this season. Ramirez is dirt cheap and he is one of the biggest favorites on the board. As crazy as it sounds, I don’t mind him as an SP2 on multi-pitcher sites.
Pitcher Rating: 66.2

Atlanta
The Braves draw a decent matchup against Erasmo Ramirez, but they have one of the lowest team totals on the board. They are large underdogs in a game that features a low total of 7.0 runs. As usual, the Braves can be avoided in daily fantasy.

Analysis: Wright is coming off of a very strong start against the Yankees, but he has been inconsistent this season, which makes him hard to trust in daily fantasy. He has the matchup in his favor tonight though, as the Marlins are ranked dead last in team wOBA against right-handed pitching this season. Wright should not be used in cash games, but he has a good enough matchup to warrant consideration in tournaments.

Analysis: Nicolino is making his third career major league start tonight. In 20 starts at the Triple-A level this season, Nicolino has a 4.62 FIP with a strikeout rate of only 12.9%. If he can’t strikeout hitters in the minors, he’s not going to strikeout hitters in the majors. He can safely be avoided tonight against the Red Sox, who are ranked 15th in team wOBA and ninth in team strikeout rate against left-handed pitching this season.

Miami
The Marlins draw a mediocre matchup tonight against Steven Wright. While he hasn’t been particularly effective against hitters from either side of the plate, but the Marlins are ranked dead last in team wOBA against right-handed pitching. Dee Gordon and Christian Yelich are both secondary options here.
