St. Louis Cardinals DFS SPIN
Adam Wainwright will have his start bumped up to Tuesday and will face the Reds in Cincinnati. The veteran was scheduled to start on Wednesday, but the Cardinals decided to move him up one day. Matthew Liberatore is available out of the Cardinals bullpen for the next two days, and if he appears on Sunday, he will start on Wednesday against the Reds. If not, he will face the Guardians in Cleveland on Friday.
Cincinnati Reds DFS SPIN
Graham Ashcraft surrendered seven runs in five-plus innings Wednesday in a loss to the Rockies. Ashcraft’s first career start at Coors Field turned sour after he opened with four scoreless innings. He gave up five runs in the fifth and was pulled after the first two batters reached in the sixth. Both came around to score as part of a six-run inning. Ashcraft fell to 2-2 with a 4.84 ERA. He’s given up 18 earned runs in his last three starts after totaling eight runs in his first six turns. While Ashcraft figures to bounce back some, mixed leaguers should be able to do better.
