Oakland Athletics (Kazmir) at Baltimore Orioles (Jimenez)
Baltimore is actually fifth in the AL in team wOBA against left-handed pitching so far this year and that means Kazmir can probably be avoided tonight. I feel there are better options and match-ups at a similar price point today. I don’t really like many of the hitters today but Moss’s price has dropped about $1K, Crisp is on a pretty good heater, and Norris is a good cheap catcher if he gets the start.
Brandon Moss (OAK-1B) – $7802
Coco Crisp (OAK-OF) – $6264
Derek Norris (OAK-C) – $4102
I’m avoiding Ubaldo and I’m not crazy about many of their hitters against Kazmir. That said, there are a couple of righties that are going on pretty good tears right now and I will likely have one of them in most lineups.
Adam Jones (OF) – $5506
Manny Machado (3B) – $5283
