Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN

Zach Eflin He allowed one run over seven innings in a win against the Blue Jays on Thursday. After posting eight strikeouts in his previous outing, Eflin somehow failed to record a hit in this one, yet he limited Toronto’s potent lineup to just six hits and a pair of walks in seven solid frames. He’ll carry a 3.17 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 52/7 K/BB ratio over 54 innings (nine starts) into Tuesday’s road tilt against the Cubs at historic Wrigley Field.

Chicago Cubs DFS SPIN

Justin Steele Surrendered six runs — five earned — and 10 hits in 3 2/3 innings Friday in a loss to the Reds. Steele’s exit velocity numbers weren’t too bad today, but he gave up three hits more than any other start this season. At least none of them were homers, and he’s now gone eight straight without giving up one. His ERA has come up recently — 13 earned runs in his last four starts has taken him from 1.45 to 2.77 — but he’s still pitching well enough. He will take over the Rays next.
