High-Priced Pitchers:
Shohei Ohtani (LAA) – Ohtani is one of the most exciting and dominant players in baseball, known for his exceptional skills both as a pitcher and a hitter. On the mound, Ohtani has been lights-out this season, showcasing a 1.85 ERA and an impressive 35.1% strikeout rate. He will be facing the St. Louis Cardinals, who have struggled against top-tier right-handed pitchers like Ohtani, batting just .221 against them over the last two years. Ohtani’s ability to generate strikeouts and limit opposing hitters makes him a top choice for high-priced pitching options today.
Dylan Cease (CWS) – Cease has emerged as a strikeout artist, boasting a high strikeout rate and the ability to overpower hitters. He will be taking on the Minnesota Twins, and the current Twins hitters have a tendency to strike out against top-tier right-handed pitchers like Cease, with a strikeout rate of 27.8% over the past two years. Cease’s strikeout potential, combined with a favorable matchup, positions him as an intriguing high-priced pitcher for today’s slate.
