DAILY MATCHUPS: Kershaw, Wacha top Friday's impressive SP slate

As a way to preview the day's games, the 2015 Daily Matchups column seeks to highlight the outliers or notable matchups on BaseballHQ.com's HQ Pitcher Matchups tool (also available as an 8-day scan). For more information on how to leverage the report, see our research article from 2012.

For additional DFS coverage collected in one place, see our Daily Dashboard page.

 

Today's schedule overview: All 30 teams have a game on the schedule today. All games take place in the evening. There are three interleague contests (Red Sox/Mets, Yankees/Braves. A's/Diamondbacks), and all are in NL parks so there will be no DH. Weather should not be a factor for any games. Statistics used below are through games of Wednesday, August 26.
