Zach Greinke and Maddison Bumgarner are on the mound today and their price tags reflect their fantasy points expectations. Two of the top fantasy hitters for the day are Nolan Arenado and Francisco Lindor but like Greinke and Bumgarner, the price is high. So, let’s offset these high prices.
Yuli Gurriel ($3400): Gurriel has been getting regular at-bats with Carlos Correa on the DL, and he’s been showing why he should stay in the lineup. I’m not sure what is on top of Yuli’s head, but he’s hitting over .300 over the last 30 games with six home runs and three stolen bases. In four at-bats against White Sox starter Lucas Giolito, Gurriel has a .500 BA, 1.150 OPS.
Andrew Benintendi ($5900): The Red Sox have a favorable matchup today in Kansas City with Jakob Junis pitching. J.D. Martinez ($7000) and Mookie Betts ($6800) are costly but you can save some money with Benintendi, who is batting .307 with 11 home runs against righties.
