Pitchers

Chris Sale vs Texas Rangers: $53
Vincent Velasquez at New York Mets: $35

Pitching is absolutely loaded tonight with all kinds of options that are super elite. However, the top two guys are also clear for me and for different reasons. Sale is the best pitcher in baseball and gets to play a Texas team with all kinds of left handed bats that are their better sticks so Sale matches up perfectly with them and makes me feel very secure about clicking the lock button. Sale is also a little discount of what he should be and I am not sure why. Velasquez is always a high floor type play because of how much K upside he brings to the table and he faces a Mets team that might be the worst in all of baseball. The Mets literally have one of the worst lineups you will ever see so the K upside is higher than normal and this price allows you to be flexible on offense even with Sale in there alongside him. There are plenty of options tonight but these two are definitely at the top of my charts.
