Checking in with Mother Nature, looks like a great day for baseball – finally. The Cubs at Rockies have a chance for rain, as do both Camden Yards and Three Rivers, but the rest of the skies look clear.

Trevor Bauer ($6,300): Trevor Bauer will face the struggling Baltimore Orioles lineup who after 19 games have a .223 team average. The favorable stat is that the O’s have the most strike outs in the league–210–meaning the Birds like to swing. One concern is that when contact is made, the O’s hit HRs; However, Bauer currently has a 2.25 ERA and has only allowed one HR. The Indians’ pitcher has averaged 1.10 HR/9 innings over the last three years. Since Baltimore lives and dies by the long ball which is a great fantasy match up for Trevor Bauer.

Asdrubal Cabrera ($3,600): Cabrera has had a strong start this season batting .343. Facing lefty Sean Newcomb. Coincidentally, Cabrera is whacking Southpaws to the tune of  .389-1-4 this season with a gaudy .381 OBP giving the Mets infielder the advantage.
