DAILY MATCHUPS: Fried to feast on the Fish

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: We have 15 games on tap today, starting with the Jays and Pirates at 12:05 pm EST and wrapping up with the Padres and Dodgers at 7:05 pm EST. Currently, there are threats of rain in Atlanta and Cincinnati, so be on the lookout for pivots if those games are rained out. Currently, the highest totals on the slate are with the Rangers/Red Sox and the Astros/Angels, so those would be your first targets for offense, with many more to follow. 

 

Notable Starts:

Max Fried has one of the best matchups on the entire slate, and his 3.0 overall HQ matchup rating supports that claim. Fried has thrown at least five innings, allowing two earned runs or less in each start, with five or more strikeouts in five starts....
