Detroit Tigers (Scherzer) at Seattle Mariners (Elias)

Off the bat, I will say I am avoiding the Mariners altogether. Their hitters shouldn’t do anything against Scherzer while Elias is facing a deadly lineup that can mash lefties.

My strategy for today involves Scherzer and thus I will have him in most lineups today. For those that can fit Miggy, he’s a good start. For those that can’t, there are solid options in the outfield against the lefty Elias today.

Max Scherzer (SP) $20,587

Miguel Cabrera (3B) – $9273

Victor Martinez (DH) – $8043

Rajai Davis (OF) – $5891

Austin Jackson (OF) – $5152

Good luck and here’s today’s lineup!
