Summary
We found a nice value pitcher with Brandon McCarthy facing the Padres. Even with a cheaper SP at $7800, we want to find some value in the position players. For $2200, I like Dan Uggla in the 2B spot, and Josh Harrison for $2800 in the 3B spot. Finding this value allows you to get a big bat with Mike Trout at $5100.
We avoided choosing players from the Cubs at Reds, Giants at Rockies and Royals at White Sox games due to high probablity of rain, which could lead to rainouts or shortened games.
