Smash Spots
\nFramber Valdez (SP \u2013 HOU)<\/a>\u00a0vs. BAL<\/p>\n

Framber Valdez is having another strong season, putting up a 2.97 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 145.2 innings. Up next is a terrific spot at home against an Orioles lineup with an 83 wRC+ versus lefties (21st).<\/p>\n

Shota Imanaga (SP \u2013 CHC)<\/a>\u00a0vs. PIT<\/p>\n

Shota Imanaga should be able to shut down a Pirates offense that ranks 29th in wRC+ against southpaws, boosting his solid season-long numbers that include a 3.12 ERA and 1.00 WHIP.<\/p>\n

Brandon Woodruff (SP \u2013 MIL)<\/a>\u00a0vs. PIT<\/p>\n

Brandon Woodruff has wildly exceeded expectations since returning from injury, putting up a 2.29 ERA and 0.65 WHIP in 35.1 innings. Expect the Brewers ace to have his way with the Pirates\u2019 lineup.<\/p>\n

Risky Starts
\nMacKenzie Gore (SP \u2013 WSH)<\/a>\u00a0vs. PHI<\/p>\n

MacKenzie Gore came into Sunday\u2019s action having allowed six or more earned runs in three of his last four outings. The lefty has hit a wall right now, making him a risky start against the Phillies.<\/p>\n

Sonny Gray (SP \u2013 STL)<\/a>\u00a0vs. NYY<\/p>\n

Sonny Gray has had a couple of blowup starts in the second half, including eight earned runs against the Diamondbacks, making it hard to trust him in a tough spot against the Yankees.<\/p>\n

Michael King (SP \u2013 SD)<\/a>\u00a0@ LAD<\/p>\n

Michael King only went two innings in his return from a lengthy trip to the injured list (IL). Expect the Padres frontline starter to be limited once again in a tough matchup against the Dodgers.<\/p>\n

\"FantasyPros<\/a><\/p>\n

Two-Start Pitchers
\nCade Horton (SP \u2013 CHC)<\/a>\u00a0@ TOR, @ PIT<\/p>\n

Cade Horton has allowed zero earned runs in four consecutive starts. We have to ride the wave in this two-start week, which includes a tough matchup in Toronto and a great one on the road in Pittsburgh against the Pirates.<\/p>\n

Jeffrey Springs (SP \u2013 ATH)<\/a>\u00a0vs. TB, vs. LAA<\/p>\n

Jeffrey Springs is in a nice rhythm right now, allowing two earned runs or fewer in three consecutive outings, one of which came at home. It\u2019s a good idea to roll with this red-hot pitcher at home versus the Rays and Angels.<\/p>\n

Chris Paddack (SP \u2013 DET)<\/a>\u00a0@ CWS, @ MIN<\/p>\n

Chris Paddack is coming off a poor outing against the Twins, but he had allowed one earned run in his previous two turns. Expect a bounce-back performance against the White Sox and a revenge outing in Minnesota.<\/p>\n
