Pittsburgh Pirates (Cole) at Cincinnati Reds (Leake)
Cole was knocked around a bit in his last start but it was more dinks/dunks and shoddy defense than anything else. His price puts him at the top of the second tier, though, so for those looking to avoid paying $20K-plus for an elite arm, here it is. Pittsburgh has smashed the crap out of the Reds’ starter Mike Leake, too, so they aren’t a bad target to stack a lineup.
Gerrit Cole (SP) – $17,713
Neil Walker (2B) – $5853
Russell Martin (C) – $5758
I will not be starting very many (any) Reds against Gerrit Cole and most certainly will not be starting Mike Leake against them.
