Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Zach Eflin logged a quality start in Friday night’s victory over the Royals, allowing three runs on seven hits over his six innings of work. The right-hander punched out seven batters on the night while issuing a pair of walks. All of the scoring done against him came via the long ball — with Nick Pratto blasting a leadoff homer to start the game and Salvador Perez adding a two-run shot in the third. Aside from that, Eflin was in complete command. He got 12 whiffs on 98 pitches in the contest, posting a CSW of 35 percent. He’ll tote an impressive 3.35 ERA and 1.03 WHIP into Thursday’s matchup against the Diamondbacks in Arizona.
Arizona Diamondbacks DFS SPIN
Zach Davies allowed six runs over four innings on Friday in a loss against the Giants. Davies worked around a hit and two walks through the first two innings before giving up three runs in the third on a walk, single, and two doubles. He allowed a run in while the first three batters reached base to start the fifth, and that would be it for Davies. Two more runs would come in after his exit. The 30-year-old right-hander will take an abysmal 7.82 ERA, 1.82 WHIP, and a 30/18 K/BB across 35 2/3 innings into a matchup against the Rays in Arizona next week.
