Chris Sale tasked with shutting down Tigers
by Chris Zolli | Braves Correspondent | Sat, Jun 4th 10:19am EDT
After losing 10-3 to the Tigers on Friday night, and not winning in either of his last two starts, Chris Sale and the White Sox will take on the Tigers tonight. Sale has a 2.29 ERA and 0.88 WHIP this season, but has allowed eight runs in his last 10 2/3 innings. He has a .793 OPS against current Tigers' batters.
Fantasy Impact:
Sale ranks first in the American League in wins (9), innings pitched (78 2/3), WHIP (0.88), and has three complete games this season. No matter his lack of recent success, Sale is a top-five SP and a must-start in every game. That being said, he is not worth the big budget play on DFS, as Victor Martinez, Ian Kinsler, and Miguel Cabrera have each had success against the left-handed starter.
