Opponent - SF (Bumgarner) Park - @SF
FD - 31.21 DK - 20.56
If you're playing on this early slate, it's either Madison Bumgarner or Kyle Hendricks. I prefer Hendricks. The Giants are the absolute worst team in baseball against righties and it's not too close. They have sported a .291 wOBA and strikeout at a normal 20% rate. They are absolutely pitiful against right-handers and Hendricks is a good enough pitcher to dominate. On the year, he's held a .299 combined wOBA and has struck out nearly 8 K/9. The match-up sets up perfectly and don't forget, it's in AT&T Park. It's ranked dead last for HR factor in each of the last 2 years and is a park that limits runs like crazy. Hendricks is extremely fairly priced and on this early slate, there are some bats to pay up for. Hendricks is a solid play in both formats and will be lesser owner than Bumgarner.
Opponent - CHW (Gonzalez) Park - @CHW
FD - 31.37 DK - 20.74
Look, pitching on this main slate is very ugly. There is no other way to put it. Alex Wood is our top option in Chase Field and it only gets worse from there. Let's take a look at Collin McHugh, who's facing off with the White Sox. It's the only reason he's really in play. Projected at just 3.98 runs, the White Sox are by far one of the worst offenses in baseball. They rank 2nd to last ahead of just the Giants with a .302 wOBA. To make things worse, they strike out at a 23% clip. On the mound, McHugh is pretty tough to gauge. He typically struggles against lefties, but holds a higher K/9 against them. He handles righties pretty well and does do a great job of limiting the big innings. He will typically give you 6 or more innings and a quality start. The White Sox are atrocious and on a slate with no pitching, you might as well target the poor offenses.
