Pirates v Cubs: While they won’t pitch against each other we will see both Paul Skenes and Shota Imanaga go in this series. Skenes will be tested in his second big league start (Fri), against a Cubs team that is playing good baseball. And if you love pitching, watching Imanaga is close to must watch

Picking between Skenes, Gasser and Scott for ROS redraft makes for an interesting conversation. Looking at IP capacity (chart below) estimates it would appear Gasser has the path for most remaining IP while Scott likely the least. On pure stuff, you take Skenes.

Brice Turang (5) - This is my kind of pick in a draft and hold. Potential for high upside with little cost. I felt going in that Turang had a role and that he could deliver a 270/70/10/50/40 season.
This and That

Shota Imanaga - incredibly fun to watch and the results have been dominant. 6 games, 5 wins, 34.2 IP, 4 QS, and an ERA under 1 at .78. At 4 years and $53m the Cubs may have the best signing of the off-season. Early leader for ROY and a fantasy difference maker whether redraft or dynasty.
