STARTING PITCHERS
Anibal Sanchez – The Tigers starter is our preferred cash-game option on FanDuel for just 8.5k. As we hit most of the teams’ third starters, we certainly can get behind the Tigers’ RHP at a near -200 favorite against the Twins.
POSITION PLAYERS
Hanley Ramirez – Ramirez is 10-for-29 with five HR and seven RBI vs. Phillies RHP Aaron Harang. Ramirez opened the season in a big way on Monday with two HRs and five RBI against the Phils.
Shane Victorino – The Boston OF opened with an 0-for-3, but still drew a pair of walks. He is 9-for-27 with three walks against Harang.
David Ortiz – Papi wore the collar in the opener, but we like his 5-for-11 with six RBI career numbers against Harang. Boston should score five runs against the Phillies on Wednesday night.
Salvador Perez – The Royals’ catcher is 10-for-30 with six extra-base hits and six RBI against the White Sox’s Jose Quintana. He had a pair of hits, including a double and an RBI in the season opener.
Ian Kinsler – Kinsler drew our highest projection at 2B tonight following a 2-for-4 opener with two RBI against the Twins on Monday. He is 5-for-12 with three doubles against Twins RHP Ricky Nolasco.
Daniel Murphy – Murph can be considered at 2B, as well, despite an 0-for-4 in the opener at WAS on Monday. He has seen plenty of Zimmerman in his career to warrant consideration with a 16-for-50 BvP against him.
