Start: July 11th at San Francisco Giants
ESPN ownership: 16.5%
Remember in late May, when the Giants' offense was heating up and giving fantasy streamers whiplash? It turns out that was a flash in the proverbial pan, with the G-Men spending the past month reverting back to the kind of poor hitting that we waiver-wire hounds have come to rely on. San Francisco has been particularly poor against lefties over the last 30 days, with a dismal .265 group on-base clip and a lackluster team ISO of .117.
This all sets up quite nicely for Chicago Cubs fill-in starter Mike Montgomery. This junk-balling maven with a 55.7% ground-ball rate gets most of his damage done in the infield, so he might not stand to benefit from the spacious confines of AT&T Park, but the pitcher-friendly environs can't hurt, either. Montgomery is an excellent one-and-done add in most formats this week.
