Pitching

Corey Kluber (at) Minnesota $60

This game is in Puerto Rico in what looks to be a park with shallow fences but with how important pitching is on Yahoo he should clearly be on your team. Kluber has been great to start the year and even has a higher groundball rate than last season which should help alleviate his only weakness last season which was the home run. Add in the Twins 25% K rate against right-handed pitching so far this year and the upside with high strikeout floor he provides clearly overrides good hitting weather in a hitters park.
