Good Morning , and it’s a great one today on a Saturday ! Depending were you’re at , The birds are chirping and the sun is out ! Tonight on the “Main Slate” we have a 9 game slate . So let’s jump right into it .
Top Ace On The Diamond –
Carlos Martinez
Price: $9,900
Vegas: -140
K% : 24.4% (2015)
The Man was an absolute beast last year , Martinez is at a rate 54.5% GB% . K rate percentage 24.4 % . It was a great season for him til he got hurt . I hate when injury ruin a player great season . Facing off vs Julio Tejeran . A weak pitcher that allows a lot of runs . I expect martinez to get his projection value 45-50 pt . ATL still not a great hitting team Martinez offer more K’s potential then Jamie Garcia did yesterday .
Value Pitcher On The Mound –
Joe Ross
Price:$6800
Vegas- -155
K%: 18.9%
Another hidden gem last year . He came last year and pitched for the Washington Nationals later in the season . I see him being a popular option in the main slate due to his price . He has a high ceiling for that $6,800 dollar Price . I will target him as my value pitcher . Hope his slider is on and pray to the big guy Stanton swing and misses . The Marlins have some decent hitter but a lot of them swing and miss at two pitches fastball and Sliders . Ross is projected by Vegas to win this game -155 . Shows the potential they believe in him too .
Now Let’s get Into the Stacks I’ll be targeting tonight .
