Washington Nationals (Gonzalez) at Atlanta Braves (Harang)

Gio Gonzalez is one of the top priced pitchers today but I think I’d rather stay away. Tossing against pretty much this exact lineup last year, Gonzalez gave up 17 earned runs in 30 innings with a WHIP of an even 1.40 (and it wasn’t much better the year before against the Braves). There are some nice values against Aaron Harang, though.

Bryce Harper (OF) – $5945

Danny Espinosa (2B) – $3916

As per usual, I’m avoiding Aaron Harang. There isn’t much for highly-successful hitters against Gio, but that also leads to good values, too.

Evan Gattis (C) – $5169

Andrelton Simmons (SS) – $5068
