Atlanta Braves (Floyd) at Boston Red Sox (Lackey)
Gavin Floyd has actually pitched pretty well this year with just seven earned runs in 25 1/3 innings with 24 strikeouts to go along with it. He is giving up over a hit per inning, though, and going to Fenway is always worrisome. I’ll stay away in smaller GPPs. Besides the usual suspects, there aren’t guys I’m targeting from Atlanta.
Justin Upton (OF) – $8380
John Lackey has pitched well this year and the only team worse at hitting righties this year than Atlanta is San Diego. I don’t feel great about it, but I will probably have Lackey in a lot of lineups given the slate tonight. I’m not targeting many of their hitters, though.
John Lackey (SP) – $15,936
A.J. Pierzynski (C) – $5649
