Kansas City Royals (Guthrie) at San Diego Padres (Erlin)
Jeremy Guthrie could very well have a good game tonight but I don’t think he’s the best value as a starting pitcher in this game, let alone tonight. Also, Kansas City has been awful against left-handed pitching this year so I will avoid this team altogether tonight.
Robbie Erlin will be in most of my lineups today regardless of league. He’s been prone to line drives but the Royals are prone to not being very vicious at the plate. Maybe it’s my last time dipping my toes in the Erlin pool, but the price is too good to pass up. I’ll have one Padres hitter in most lineups, too.
Robbie Erlin (SP) – $10,799
Seth Smith (OF) – $5206
Good luck and here’s today’s lineup!
