New York Yankees (Sabathia) at Toronto Blue Jays (Hutchison)
There are Jays that have struggled against CC Sabathia in the past, and he did pretty well against them in one start last year. He has historically done very well at the Rogers Centre, but until he shows that he’s turned his career around from what we’ve seen, I can’t trust him. The Yankees bats also have yet to really come alive consistently this year so I’m not sure how reliable they are in DFS.
Kelly Johnson (OF) – $5413
Brett Gardner (OF) – $4955
Melky Cabrera is on fire to start the season with a hit in every game and home runs in each of his last two. His price still hasn’t reached elite status yet so he can provide a bit of value. Maicer Izturis is an interesting play if he gets the start because he’s 9-for-21 in his career against Sabathia. DFSers looking for a cheap option might want to look at Drew Hutchison, as well.
Melky Cabrera (OF) – $6271
Maicer Izturis (2B) – $3861
Drew Hutchison (SP) – $13,889
