FanDuel Price: $9,200
Gio Gonzalez is in a situation similar to that of the aforementioned Lester. Gonzalez has a dazzling 2.65 ERA and has recorded a solid 6 victories this season. Gonzalez's SIERA of 4.01 also belies his ERA and indicates that he is not pitching quite as well as it would appear.
Gonzalez will also be pitching on the road in one of the best ballparks for offensive production: the Rogers Centre. He is also a National League pitcher who will be pitching in an American League ballpark, where he will have to face a designated hitter instead of a pitcher or a bevy of bench bats.
While Gonzalez has been solid this year, the results overstate how good his pitching actually has been. In an American League park that supports offensive production, this is a spot to stay away from Gio.
