Atlanta Braves (Floyd) at Washington Nationals (Zimmermann)
The Braves have scored one fewer run than the Phillies this month (albeit, in one fewer game). I have no confidence in their bats outside of Evan Gattis right now. Gavin Floyd is not really worth a look today, either, so the Braves are mostly a complete pass.
Evan Gattis (C) – $6742
Jordan Zimmermann has allowed one earned run in three starts this month and gets a team he’s already carved up once this year. He’s one of my top pitching options for today. I also like Adam LaRoche’s bat a lot tonight (Floyd can have problems against lefties) and Anthony Rendon is really starting to heat up.
Jordan Zimmermann (SP) – $18,330
Adam LaRoche (1B) – $6014
Anthony Rendon (3B) – $6203
