Pitchers to Target
High-Priced Pitchers
Jacob deGrom ($11,000 on FanDuel): Jacob deGrom is nearing the end of another fantastic campaign, putting together a 3.33 SIERA, 31.6% strikeout rate, and 5.7% walk rate across 30 starts. That strikeout rate not only leads the slate, but deGrom gets a plus matchup against the Reds, whose active roster is striking out at a 24.6% clip versus righties. The only downside is a negative park factor shift on the road at Great American Ball Park, though deGrom isn't a guy who gives up much hard contact, decreasing the likelihood off any balls leaving the park.
