Hustle Points is back this week. It’s Fathers’ Day and I’m sure a lot of you are hoping for a break with your fantasy baseball teams as a little gift this week from the fantasy Gods above. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work like that. Trust me. I know. But I can’t do anything about that. All I can do is get you guys somewhat ready for the week ahead, so here we go:
BARGAIN ON A WIRE: Carlos Carrasco has been a hot pitcher for Cleveland and is definitely worth grabbing if still available in your league… Charlie Blackmon is hitting and stealing bases in Colorado… Alcides Escobar has hit in 14 of his last 26 Abs for KC… Todd Helton is having his yearly hitting surge, so ride him while he’s hot… Eduardo Nunez will get some SS play in Derek Jeter’s absence in the Bronx…
HAMPERED: Check out the news on these guys before using them in the week ahead: Chipper Jones, John Danks, Hunter Pence, John Danks, and Brian Matusz.
TWO START BRIGADE:
AWESOME: Roy Halladay, Jared Weaver, Clayton Kershaw, Annibal Sanchez, Ricky Romero
NEXT BEST THING: Gavin Floyd, Tim Hudson, Johnny Cueto, Nelson Bumgarner, Deron Gee, Carlos Zambrano, Jake Arieta
NOT TOO BAD: Carl Pavano, Derek Holland, Charlie Morton, Kyle McClellan, Chris Narveson, Fausto Carmona, Doug Fister, Ivan Nova
AIMING LOW: JA Happ, Juan Nacasio, Brad Penny, Livan Hernandez, Luke Hochevar, Joe Saunders, Jeff Nieman, Wade LeBlanc, Josh Outman
