Pitching
Gerrit Cole at Arizona Diamondbacks $59
Outside of Kingham who only has one start this year, Cole leaads the slate in SIERA, K%, and Swinging Strike %. He gets to go to the NL tonight with a pitcher in the lineup, and has the humidor working to his advantage as Arizona has seen a drastic shift to a pitchers park in a small sample so far this season. Arizona has the 8th highest home strikeout rate this season and the ninth highest against right-handed pitching giving Cole a highest floor/ceiling combo of the night.
Jose Berrios at Chicago White Sox $48
