I touched on a few guys in the main picks article, so these are secondary plays. On the late slate however, I think Stroman may be the best GPP option. Matt Harvey is facing off with the Braves and has the upside to go crazy in any start. He also has the downside to get nickel and dimed to death by a lineup that doesn't strikeout against righties. Marcus Stroman will face-off with the Rays, who have struggled against right-handed pitching dating back to 2014. They have a few guys with huge K rates and a few more that just aren't good hitters. Kevin Kiermaier and Corey Dickerson are the only real bats I'm worried about. They both hit righties well and Kiermaier presents a big issue on the basepaths. Stroman was quite good in 2016, allowing a combined .311 wOBA to match his 3.25 xFIP. This game will be played in Tropicana Field, which s one of the best parks in the league for pitching. Stroman may not be the safe option Matt Harvey is, bu he has the upside and the price is depressed.

After Stroman, it gets very ugly. Eduardo ROdriguezis a longshot GPP call and I wouldn't touch him in cash games. He struggled for the better part of 2 years but believes he knows why. He was tipping pitches. Since the start of 2016, Rodriguez has fixed a lot. He ended up allowing a .3018 wOBA to lefties and a .312 to righties. He did have some HR trouble but that's expected in Fenway Park. While the Pirates do have some intimidating bats, they can strike out a lot and g cold with ease. Like I said, this is a tournament only option. Rodriguez can easily get shelled here if McCutchen or Marte is swinging the bat well. If for some reason ROdridgiez can get them on their heels and put a few K's in the books, he's cheap enough to win you a tournament. With such an uncertain pitching slate, there is something to be said for a cheap option with a lot of upside.
