Cincinnati Reds (Cueto) at Washington Nationals (Fister)
Cueto is priced over $26K and while he’s about as sure a thing as it gets right now, that’s a lot of quid to pass on a pitcher. I will probably hold off on using him in favor of a lower-priced option. I’m not chasing too many hitting options against Fister tonight, either.
Fister had an excellent outing his second time out from returning from injury and has yet to walk anyone in his first two starts. Considering his cheap price and Cincinnati’s recent inability to generate a lot of offense, I’ll be using Fister in quite a few lineups. I will not be using Washington hitters against Cueto, though.
