Pitcher
Kenta Maeda (LAD): $6,700 vs. San Diego
Maeda hasn’t been great recently, but he hasn’t been bad either. His price has fallen to bargain levels as a result, and I believe tonight represents an interesting breakout opportunity. Maeda will take the bump against a San Diego offense that ranks 20th in wRC+ with an MLB-high 26.1% strikeout rate. Maeda’s most noticeable blemish has come in the form of a .356 wOBA split to left-handed hitters. Luckily, the Padres don’t have many quality lefty bats to expose him.
Other pitchers to consider: Gerrit Cole (HOU), Robbie Ray (ARI)
