You can let it fill in the rest of the spots for you or choose your personal favorites from the MLB Player Lab.
**STARTING PITCHERS**
Carlos Martinez vs. Philadelphia Phillies
Park – Busch Stadium
Martinez may only have a 4-5 record, but he deserves to have more wins than that. He enters Saturday with a 3.29 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 88 strikeouts in 79.1 innings pitched. Strikeouts are a big part of his value as he has recorded at least eight of them in each of his last three starts. Saturday he gets an excellent match up against the Phillies who are among the worst teams in baseball in terms of runs scored. Martinez should be well worth his high price tag in this contest.
Sonny Gray vs. Tampa Bay Rays
Stadium – Tropicana Field
Gray is coming off of a strong start where he only allowed three runs over seven innings against the potent Washington Nationals offense. He has been solid of late overall, throwing a quality start in four of his last five outings. Not known as a big strikeout pitcher, he does have a very respectable 37 strikeouts in 41.1 innings this year. If you don’t want to spend the money on Martinez Saturday, Gray does provide value at a very reasonable price as well.
**OFFENSIVE STACKS**
New York Yankees vs. Chris Tillman (Baltimore Orioles)
Park – Yankee Stadium
Tillman has struggled mightily this season as he enters Saturday with a 5.59 ERA and 1.83 WHIP. He has had issues with his control this season as he is averaging 4.7 walks per nine innings, which would be his highest average since 2010. The Yankees already faced Tillman just over a week ago and crushed him for five runs in 2.2 innings. The Yankees offense is rolling right now, so expect them to continue to have success against Tillman Saturday.
Players to consider stacking: Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez and Brett Gardner
Houston Astros vs. Ricky Nolasco (Los Angeles Angels)
Park – Minute Maid Park
Nolasco’s numbers are ugly as he has a 5.05 ERA and 1.38 WHIP for the season. The scariest stat of them all though is that he has already allowed 18 home runs in only 66 innings. The Astros will get their chance to tee off on Nolasco Saturday. Don’t be surprised to see some balls leave the yard as the Astros not only have one of the best offenses in all of baseball, but also one of the most powerful.
Players to consider stacking: Jose Altuve, George Springer and Evan Gattis
