Texas Rangers (Darvish) at Oakland Athletics (Milone)
Darvish has had four subpar (for Darvish standards) outings this year. Two of them against Oakland. Darvish also has a career 1.46 WHIP against Oakland in nine career starts. He has also faced seven teams at least five times and of those seven teams, his worst K/BB ratio is against Oakland. He’s avoidable tonight. They do have a couple of decent bat options tonight, though.
Alex Rios (OF) – $6728
Elvis Andrus (SS) – $5827
Milone is avoidable tonight. I won’t be avoiding the bats just because of Darvish, though. The Oakland lefties are a decent option and I will probably be taking at least one of them tonight.
Brandon Moss (1B) – $6897
Coco Crisp (OF) – $6777
John Jaso (C) – $4893
