On this fine summer Sunday I will play the role of one Captain Obvious and tell you to start the best pitcher in baseball. I don't condone buying the most expensive pitcher of the day regularly, but today it makes sense. Clayton Kershaw's ($14,800) opponent the Houston Astros have been the worst offense in the league the last 14 days. Posting the league's lowest wOBA and highest strikeout percentage. So let's put this together and really take it over the top shall we? Best pitcher in the game vs the lightest hitting lineup at the moment, that strikes out at the highest rate. Does this sound like a buying opportunity to you? If not, you can start Michael Wacha at San Diego for $11,000, and tell all your friends that you're too cool for aces, and that you like Wacha's matchup better. That's cool. Or you could start both and fill your lineup with punts and platoon guys. Funny thing is some of my best lineups have been platoons and punts.
