Colorado Rockies (Lyles) at Los Angeles Dodgers (Beckett)
Considering what Jordan Lyles’ price is, and how well he has pitched this year, I’m having a hard time leaving him off any roster (especially GPPs). I would also advise Lyles for anyone that pays the premium for using Strasburg today. I’m also not overly excited about the Rockies hitters, considering that Beckett is somehow pitching pretty well.
Jordan Lyles (SP) – $8123
Nolan Arenado (3B) – $5474
Beckett has pitched pretty well this year though with the amount of guys he’s walking, it’s really cutting into his value. I’d also rather not start him against that Rockies lineup. Hanley Ramirez is 3-for-3 in Lyles’ brief career against the pitcher so he’s probably a good bet for today.
Hanley Ramirez (SS) – $7886
