Los Angeles Angels (Skaggs) at Washington Nationals (Jordan)
Skaggs’ numbers look fine, but the reality is he shut down the Astros but was knocked around by Oakland and the Mets. He’s not generating enough strikeouts to rely on him not getting knocked around, so I will avoid him at his price. The prices for Albert Pujols and Mike Trout are getting a bit obscene, though.
Howie Kendrick (2B) – $7689
Taylor Jordan is a non-starter for me until (if) he starts to turn around his season. He’s getting hit way too hard to rely on him, especially against some of the names he’ll be facing. I do like some of their righties against Skaggs today, though.
Jayson Werth (OF) – $7003
Ian Desmond (SS) – $5127
