Pitchers per PA: 3.87 (Rank: 8)
Analysis: Lester takes the mound for the Cubs tonight, as they square off against the Mets in Citi Field. Lester isn’t having a great season by his standards, but he still has good strikeout potential for fantasy purposes. He draws a favorable matchup tonight against the Mets, who are ranked 15th in wOBA (.309) and 25th in strikeout rate (23.6%) against left-handed pitching.

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.298 (Rank: 21) — Strikeout Rate: 22.7% (Rank: 24)
Pitchers per PA: 3.98 (Rank: 1)
Analysis: Colon’s strikeout rate has taken a big dip over the last couple of months, which really hurts his fantasy appeal. While the Cubs do strike out often as a team, they should be able to make good contact against a pitcher that throws a ton of fastballs for strikes. There are better pitching options on the board tonight.
Pitcher Rating:64.8

Chicago Cubs
Even though this game will be played in Citi Field, the Cubs are still in a great spot tonight against Bartolo Colon, who has not pitched well over the last couple of months. A discounted Anthony Rizzo is an appealing fantasy option, while Kris Bryant is also in play at third base.

NY Mets
The Mets draw a difficult matchup against Jon Lester. Even though he is a reverse-splits pitcher, there aren’t any left-handed hitters on the Mets that stand out tonight.

Pitchers per PA: 3.72 (Rank: 27)
Analysis: Heston has struck out at least six batters in four of his last five starts. He draws favorable matchup tonight against the Marlins, who are ranked 27th in wOBA (.288) and 23rd in strikeout rate (21.0%) against right-handed pitching this season. Heston is a viable value play for tournaments and he makes sense as an SP2 on multi-pitcher sites.

Pitchers per PA: 3.72 (Rank: 26)
Analysis: Haren gets the benefit of playing at home in the spacious Marlins Park tonight. He is a fly-ball pitcher with an above-average HR/FB rate, which is why the big ballpark helps his cause tonight. Unfortunately, he draws a difficult matchup against the Giants, who are ranked fourth in wOBA (.327) and fifth in strikeout rate (17.5%) against right-handed pitching. I’d rather target his pitching counterpart.
Pitcher Rating:58.8
Batter Grind Down
San Francisco
As mentioned above, Dan Haren has had trouble keeping the ball in the park throughout his career. This is a good spot for the power bats of the Giants. Buster Posey is the obvious choice here, but Angel Pagan and Brandon Belt are also in play.

Pitchers per PA: 3.85 (Rank: 9)
Analysis: Volquez has not pitched well over the last month of play, posting a 4.63 SIERA with a low strikeout rate of 13.3%. At this point, I don’t want to have anything to do with a pitcher facing the Astros. They are ranked ninth in wOBA against right-handed pitching and they have hit more home runs than any other team in baseball this season.

Last 14 Days: wOBA: 0.334 (Rank: 11) — Strikeout Rate: 14.5% (Rank: 1)
Pitchers per PA: 3.67 (Rank: 29)
Analysis: Velasquez offers terrific strikeout potential, but he has been erratic in his first few major league starts. The 23.2% strikeout rate is nice, but the 13.4% walk rate is alarming. The Royals aren’t a team that takes a lot of pitches, but they don’t strikeout often either. He may be worth a look as a cheap tournament play, but he can be avoided in cash games.
Pitcher Rating:58.4
Batter Grind Down
Kansas City
Vincent Velasquez is going to be a good pitcher for a very long time, but he is struggling to find himself at the major league level right now. The Royals offense is in a decent spot, as they see a favorable ballpark shift playing in the hitter-friendly Minute Maid Park.

The Astros draw a decent matchup against Edinson Volquez, who has not been sharp in his last few starts. The Astros hit a ton of home runs and they hit right-handed pitching well as a team. George Springer, Jose Altuve, and Carlos Correa are all in play.

Analysis: Quintana has struggled in his recent outings, but he finds himself in an attractive matchup tonight. He has a strikeout rate just over 20% over the last two seasons and tonight he faces a Cardinals’ offense that is ranked 24th in wOBA (.299) and 27th in strikeout rate (24.0%). He is a sizable underdog tonight, but he’s worth a look as a contrarian GPP play.

Analysis: Pitching options are few and far between tonight and Lackey is actually one of the better plays at the position. He typically pitches pretty well at home and he draws a favorable matchup against the White Sox, who are ranked 25th in wOBA (.296) against right-handed pitching and 23rd in strikeout rate (19.2%) over the last 14 days.

Chicago White Sox
The White Sox are one of the worst hitting teams against right-handed pitching this season. They have one of the lowest team totals on the board, as they square off against John Lackey in Busch Stadium. They are secondary fantasy options tonight.

Pitchers per PA: 3.87 (Rank: 7)
Analysis: Ray has been a serviceable starter for the Diamondbacks this season, but he’s in a tough spot tonight against the Dodgers in Chase Field. Los Angeles has been much better against left-handed pitching over the last month, as they finally have all of their right-handed hitters back in the lineup. Ray should be avoided in all league formats tonight.
Pitcher Rating:47.7
Batter Grind Down
LA Dodgers
Since the start of the 2014 season, Robbie Ray has given up a .339+ wOBA to left and right-handed hitters, so even the left-handed bats are in play tonight. The Dodgers see a big ballpark boost playing in the hitter-friendly Chase Field. Once again, load up on the Dodgers in both cash games and tournaments.

Arizona
Brett Anderson is a reverse-splits pitcher, but it’s hard to pass up on the right-handed hitters in the Diamondbacks’ lineup tonight. A.J. Pollock and Paul Goldschmidt both dominate southpaws. Yasmany Tomas and Nick Ahmed are also in play at home.
