MLB for Tuesday

C- AJ Ellis LAD- Ellis is having a superb year so far, and in the last two weeks is hitting .309. He has 2 home runs in the last 4 games, and has 12 total hits in the last 10 games. Those are some good numbers for a guy under 6K and someone that was supposed to be an offensive liability.

1B- Albert Pujols LAA- Pujols is back ladies and gentleman. He is hitting over .300 in the last two weeks, and has added power hitting 6 home runs during that span. He is facing Pettite tonight who we can't imagine can keep up with his amazing start.

2B- Kelly Johnson TOR- Johnson is having a great year this season and is very hot right now. Yesterday he went 3-4 with 2 doubles and a home run. Great numbers for a guy that is priced at under 7K. He is facing Jake Arrieta at home which is very favorable for the O's offense in our opinion.

3B- Mark Trumbo LAA- Trumbo is our second Angels player on our squad today, but not because we think Pettite is going to get rocked today. We think Trumbo at his price of under 6K is too much to pass up on which his stats in the last two weeks. Yesterday against the Yankees, Trumbo went 3-5 with a double, triple, and a home run. Yea, put him on your squad.

SS- Brandon Crawford SF- Crawford is hitless in his last two games, but before that he had 9 hits in 7 games. He is dirt cheap at just over 4K, and it allows us to grab big hitters. He is facing Saunders the soft throwing lefty.

OF- Dayan Viciedo CWS- Viciedo is one of those picks today where he is so hot that you have to pick him no matter what the matchup. He is facing Shields today which on paper is a bad matchup, but if you just look at how hot Viciedo and the price it is to take him then it's worth it in our opinion. He is hitting .400 with 7 home runs and 20 RBI in the last two weeks and only costs 6K.

OF- Hunter Pence PHI- Pence has really been hitting well in the last two weeks, hitting to a .315 clip with 4 home runs. He is facing off against Hefner a righty for the Mets whose ERA is close to 9. This is favorable for Pence and the Phillies as they have been swinging better since the start of the season.

OF- Adam Jones BAL- Jones is one of the hottest hitters in baseball right now. He is hitting .345 in the last two weeks with 4 home runs. He faces off against Romero today a very good lefty, but he can be hittable.

SP- Justin Masterson CLE- Masterson is very hot and cold. He can be a bad pitcher due to too many walks and pitches lefty over the plate, and then sometimes he can be dominate with his unreal two seamer hitting every spot he wants. Today he faces the Royals and he is going to need to hit his spots. This is a somewhat risky pick today as the Royals have some good left handed bats in their lineup, but we like it.

SP- Scott Feldman TEX- Feldman is a pick today that we like because of how cheap he is. At 6K it's hard to pass up on a pitcher that is truly not as bad as he has been pitching lately. The Mariners offense can be very dismal and we expect an average performance out of them tonight.

RP- Joe Nathan TEX- Nathan is going to pick up a save tonight we just know it. Vargas is on the mound for the Mariners, and he is a very quality lefty. Pair that with an average pitcher in Feldman and we have ourselves the making of a 6-3 ball game.
