Houston Astros DFS SPIN
Framber Valdez fell to 2-4 after allowing two runs in six innings Wednesday against the Giants. He struck out eight. Valdez’s only non-quality start this season was when he was pulled after five scoreless innings on Opening Day, so it’s hardly his fault that he’s 2-4. He already has two-thirds as many losses as last season, even though his 2.60 ERA is lower than last year’s 2.82 mark.
Los Angeles Angels DFS SPIN
Shohei Ohtani matched a career-high with 13 strikeouts over five innings on Wednesday in a no-decision against the Cardinals. Ohtani, who also went 3-for-5 with an RBI at the plate, reached the 500-strikeout plateau in this one, joining Babe Ruth as the only players in baseball history with 100 homers and 500 strikeouts. He gave up four runs on five hits, including a pair of homers, and needed 97 pitches (63 strikes) to complete five frames. He generated 19 swinging strikes and finished with an elite 41 percent CSW. He’ll carry a stellar 2.54 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 59/18 K/BB ratio across 39 innings (seven starts) into a home matchup on Tuesday against the Astros.
