Oakland Athletics (Pomeranz) at Los Angeles Angels (Santiago)
Again, both pitchers are avoidable here.
Santiago is making his first start in a month and that’s good news for Oakland. The Athletics aren’t studly at hitting lefty pitching but they’re not bad either. This is a starter that can help them get on track in that regard. I would avoid Donaldson who is mired in a mini-slump right now but has the price of a pitcher.
Yoenis Cespedes (OF) – $7897
Pomeranz has pitched very well since converting to a starter but that’s a lethal Angels lineup he has to face. They also tagged him for five earned not even two weeks ago. The prices aren’t great tonight for most of their hitters so I might avoid a stack here.
Mike Trout (OF) – $9025
Howie Kendrick (2B) – $6258
