Top Tier
Corbin Burnes, SP MIL - Burnes has allowed just three earned runs over his last four starts which spans 27.1 innings. The strikeout numbers were trending down a bit but last start he punched out 12. He gets the White Sox today who will be without a DH that will make their lineup more manageable.
Chris Bassitt (R), SP OAK - Easy cash game play here. The Mariners offense continues to be one of the worst in baseball while Bassitt continues to be nails for the A's. Over his last 10 starts he has an ERA under 3.00 and while his loan start against Seattle this year wasn't great, that has been more of an outlier this year.
Mid Tier
Hyun Jin Ryu (L), SP TOR - I will take an American League pitcher getting to face a National League lineup most nights. Ryu has been better over his last few starts and the Mets lineup is of course very hit or miss with most of their better hitters tending to struggle against left-handed pitching.
José Berríos (R), SP MIN - Love the strikeout upside for Berrios who could be showcasing himself for a possible trade later this week from the Twins who have started selling off. Over his last three starts Berrios has 26 strikeouts over 20 innings but has faced a lot of familiar foes with varying degrees of success. He draws the Angels tonight in Minnesota.
Value Tier
Patrick Sandoval (L), SP LAL - If fading Berrios and the Twins then Sandoval should be your guy at the value tier. He has shown increased strikeout upside of late and is drawing a Twins lineup that just traded away their best hitter against left-handed pitching in Nelson Cruz (R).
