Pitchers to Target

High-Priced Pitchers

Gerrit Cole ($12,000 on FanDuel): Even on a slate with a good number of aces, Gerrit Cole has a $1,200 jump over every other hurler on the board. Still, it's hard to argue with a guy boasting an absurd 2.67 SIERA, 39.4% strikeout rate, and 6.0% walk rate and plays with a stacked lineup like the Astros. Over his last dozen starts, Cole hasn't dropped below 40 FanDuel points once and has put up 58 points or more eight times. Racking up at least 14 punchouts in three straight games, Cole just seems unstoppable these days, and the Royals aren't likely to be the team that slows him down (3.09 implied total).
