Early look at FanDuel GPP Tournaments for 8/24/15

9 games in the evening for Monday.

Some of the cheap value hitters I like tonight are Todd Frazier, Stephen Drew, Pablo Sandoval, Eugenio Suarez, Stephen Piscotty, Johnny Peralta, Mark Trumbo, Juan Lagares, Wilmer FLores, and Steve Clevenger.

All of the above hitters are very cheap and you need cheap hitters if you select deGrom as your pitcher.

The most expensive pitcher is Jacob deGrom at $11,700 vs. the Phillies. I expect a high ownership rate for deGrom.

I think deGrom could be owned by over 40% of the players in GPP tourneys.

Who else would you take over him? deGrom is the only ace on the mound and Iwakuma is at $9000 and facing the lowly A's.

There's a lot of average pitchers on the mound and hopefully that means there will be a lot of offense in most of the games.

The cheapest pitchers are in the Tigers/Reds game with Farmer at $4500 and Sampson at $5300. Does this mean we should expect a high-scoring game?

Eovaldi of the Yankees could be a sleeper pick since the Astros do strike out often and are not as good on the road. Eovaldi did throw a career high 120 pitches five days ago so that could affect him tonight.

Another sleeper pitcher is Jorge De la Rosa of the Rockies. The Braves are not a juggernaut on offense and if De la Rosa has the opportunity to pitch very well unless he loses command and starts to walk batters which is a good possibility as well.

 
The Cardinals go from San Diego to Arizona so I expect their hitters to be happy about that.

The Mets go from Coors to Citizens Park in Philly so I expect them to continue to hit.

The Pirates face a weak Marlins team but they had to travel late after their ESPN game tonight.

The Rockies go from Coors to Atlanta.

The Yankees, Marlins, Reds, and Mariners all are staying at home and continuing homestands so all their players should be well-rested.

If you want to stack three or four hitters in a LU, how about the Yankees against Feldman? Feldman has pitched very well of late but a lot of Yankees' hitters have had good success against him in the past.

Alex Rodriguez has two homers off Feldman and is 5-16 lifetime against him.

Farmer of the Tigers is just not a very good starting pitcher so I will have guys like Votto and Frazier in some of my LUs.

Tom Koheler of the Marlins has given up 13 homers to lefties this year so maybe you should load up on some Pirates such as Polanco.

Jeff Samardzija goes up against a red-hot Red Sox offense and Ramirez, Sandoval, and Ortiz have hit him well in the past.

Blake Swihart Red Sox Catcher - 7-11 in last 3 games

Xander Bogaerts - batting .321 in August

Andres Blanco is also hitting and batting .429 in the past week with four multi-hit games.
