Jacob deGrom, P, New York Mets

Price: $11,200

After a down year in 2016, Jacob deGrom has bounced back in a big way this season. posting a 3.13 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) through 10 starts, as well as career-highs in both strikeout rate (32.2%) and swinging strike rate (15.2%).

He's fanned at least nine batters in six of his last eight starts, has allowed more than three earned runs only twice this season, and he brings his impressive numbers into a good matchup tonight, as the New York Mets are the day's biggest favorites (-178 moneyline) against the Milwaukee Brewers, whose 3.25 implied total is Wednesday's lowest mark.

The Brewers have a middling 96 wRC+ against right-handed pitching this season, and this is an especially good spot for deGrom from a fantasy standpoint, as Milwaukee's 24.0% strikeout rate against righties is the fourth-highest mark in the Majors.
