Chicago Cubs (Jackson) at Atlanta Braves (Harang)
There isn’t really anything out of line with Edwin Jackson’s numbers this year except he hasn’t given up very many home runs (like, 20-percent of his career norms). The Braves are a dangerous home run-hitting team so I’ll just pass today. I’m wary against Aaron Harang, too, which is a pretty ridiculous statement in mid-May.
Anthony Rizzo (1B) – $7371
Aaron Harang’s regression should continue, as he’s now allowed 19 hits over his last 10.2 innings pitched. It’s weird because his K:BB ratio was excellent over those two games but it seems that he’s just getting back to who he really is. I’ll shy away but the Braves make an excellent GPP stack target for hitters today.
Freddie Freeman (1B) – $7345
Evan Gattis (OF) – $5248
