Minnesota Twins (Hughes) at Detroit Tigers (Verlander)

The Twins are just completely avoidable for me today. Phil Hughes vs Detroit and Minnesota hitters vs Verlander doesn’t scream “DFS value” in any sense of the words.

I don’t mind Verlander’s match-up today but I do mind his price. Verlander is over $20K and there are better options near his price. I do like a couple of the Tigers’ hitters against Hughes today, though I won’t be stacking them in GPPs.

Torii Hunter (OF) – $7145
