St. Louis Cardinals (Wainwright) at Los Angeles Dodgers (Beckett)
Wainwright is the top option tonight for a reason but I will usually stay away from anyone facing the Dodgers. *If* there were a team I’m afraid of starting pitchers against from the National League, the Dodgers would be one of three (with the Rockies and Brewers). Other than Matt Adams, I’m not looking at many Cardinals hitters. That makes Beckett a reasonable start tonight, though I don’t really trust him enough for the price he demands. I’d rather start Fister at that price.
Matt Adams (STL-1B) – $6516
Matt Carpenter (STL-3B) – $5290
Yasiel Puig (LAD-OF) – $5850
