If you decide to play it safe and pay up for Strasburg, we’ll help you squeeze in the hitter values in the right matchups. Also be sure to check out Fantasy Alarm’s MLB DFS Playbook, too.

Saves Sleepers
Daniel Hudson picked up his fourth save of the year on Wednesday, working around a two-out single to preserve Arizona’s 3-1 lead against the Rockies. Brad Ziegler is away from the team to be his wife while she gives birth. It’s possible he doesn’t return to the team this season, so Hudson could collect another save or two over the weekend.

Here are the games facing the biggest threats of rain: Blue Jays-Orioles in Baltimore (70-percent chance of rain); Mets-Phillies in Philadelphia (70 percent); Red Sox-Yankees in New York (64 percent); and Nationals-Braves in Atlanta (50 percent).
