Houston Astros (Feldman) at Texas Rangers (Darvish)
I am just avoiding the Astros altogether tonight. I’m not a fan of starting Feldman in Texas and I’m not a fan of any of their hitters against Yu Darvish. It’s pretty straight-forward.
The Rangers’ Yu Darvish is one of the top starts of the day, but let’s be honest, his price point costs one-quarter of total salary and that’s a high cost to pay. Starting him is fine, but there will have to be some savings elsewhere. I do like a couple of their hitters against Feldman, though.
Alex Rios (OF) – $7225
Prince Fielder (1B) – $5583
