Arizona Diamondbacks (Miley) at Chicago Cubs (Samardzija)
Some might be tempted with Miley in Chicago, it is the Cubs after all, but I would rather avoid him for now. He’s only had one real strong start this year so he’s just a lot of “blah” right now. I’m also staying away from any Diamondbacks hitter for now. This team is crumbling under itself.
The Cubs aren’t a very good team but the Diamondbacks might actually be worse. Samardzija has looked very good so far this year and at his price point, he stands to be a good value today, pitching as an ace without an ace price tag.
Jeff Samardzija (SP) – $18,562
