Why He Will Go Overlooked:
If the starting pitching slate was chalk full of studs Monday, it's just as good or better on Wednesday's slate. Corey Kluber, Chris Sale, Justin Verlander, Steven Wright, Felix Hernandez, and Aaron Sanchez all take the hill. This will likely ensure that Ian Kennedy doesn't see a high ownership number.
Why You Should Use Him:
At first glance, Kennedy's 4.04 SIERA, the second-highest mark in his last seven seasons, may give you pause, but his peripherals point to a big night for him.
Kennedy has enjoyed second-half success due to two main reasons. His walk rate has dropped 1.3% in the second half and he has cut his home-run rate in the second half from 1.90 per nine innings to 1.17 home runs per nine innings.
Including a white hot Gary Sanchez, the New York Yankees still sport an anemic road wOBA of .298, which is third-worst clip in baseball. The Yankees implied total of 3.81 runs is a good number to target.
