López, Yoshida, Singer, Andujar, A. Suárez

Look beyond López's surface numbers ... Through 118 innings, Pablo López (RHP, MIN) has a 4.73 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 27% K%, and 5% BB%. It's his worst ERA since 2019, after four straight seasons being under 3.80. Should we buy low on López where possible for a second-half run?

Buy low because López has near-elite skills with poor results across the season:
