The pickings were slim yesterday and yet another great start was made by a pitcher on absolutely no one’s radar as Phil Humber pitched a gem against the Yankees taking a no hitter into the 7th inning. Humber is owned in 1% of Yahoo! leagues and a slim 0.1% of ESPN (basically his dad owns him). You just never know when a great start will come out of nowhere, but we can look at the match ups and stats and continue to do our best.
For games on Wednesday April 27th these selected pitchers might be had in your league (less than 50% owned in Yahoo! or ESPN) with percent owned Yahoo/ESPN, (team), and opponent:
Derek Holland 34% / 23% (TEX) vs. TOR
Anibal Sanchez 33% / 40% (FLA) vs. LAD
Jeremy Guthrie 33% / 17% (BAL) vs. BOS
Josh Tomlin 26% / 27% (CLE) vs. KC
R.A. Dickey 20% / 5% (NYM) vs. WAS
Mark Buehrle 15% / 10% (CWS) @ NYY
Bartolo Colon 8% / 3% (NYY) vs. CWS
Sam LeCure 4% / 3% (CIN) @ MIL
My Pick: Anibal Sanchez vs. Dodgers
Alternate: Josh Tomlin vs. Royals
Deep League Special: Bartolo Colon vs. White Sox
