Those who need a late-week push will find tremendous value in the top starting pitcher options this weekend, as there are several hurlers who are poised to deliver dominant outings against weak offenses. On the hitting side, the Reds should continue to benefit from a seven-game week at their offense-inducing venue, while the Giants are sure to post some crooked numbers against the lowly Rockies.
Matchups to Target
Reds vs. Nationals: Reds hitters should thrive in three games at their hitter-friendly home park against unimposing starters. Austin Hays (43%) has been regularly hitting in the heart of the lineup and hopes to return from a minor hamstring injury by Friday, while TJ Friedl (42%) and Gavin Lux (41%) also warrant strong consideration.
