Seattle Mariners (Hernandez) at New York Yankees (Phelps)
Basically, there are two top options tonight in Felix and Clayton Kershaw. Either is fine, though Kershaw at home is probably the better play. The worthwhile bats from Seattle are expensive tonight so James Jones is a decent cheap play. The other guys are fine to own but remember, it’s still the Mariners, regardless of who is on the mound on the other side.
Michael Saunder (OF) – $7231
James Jones (OF) – $5714
Phelps has a cheap price and the Mariners are tied for the worst-hitting team by wOBA against righties in the American League. I still worry about him because the Mariners are starting to hit a bit better (for them) so I think I’d rather save him for GPPs. I’m not targeting many Yankees hitters against Felix, though.
Yangervis Solarte (3B) – $5163
