Pitcher
Dakota Hudson (STL): $8,000 vs. Colorado
Hudson has looked fantastic while tossing 12.2 scoreless innings (5 hits, 11 Ks) over his last two starts. He could keep that streak going against a Colorado offense that ranks 27th in overall wRC+ and 29th in wRC+ on the road (only better than the lowly Marlins). Hudson’s Cardinals check in as a convincing -185 home favorite as a result, and I’m expecting some quality fantasy production from the St. Louis hurler.
Other Pitchers to consider: Mike Clevinger (CLE), Kyle Gibson (MIN)
