Whoa there, friend. Don't go there. You really, REALLY read that title wrong. This isn't Brazzersball, this is Razzball so you keep your dirty thoughts to yourself...or share them in the comments! There's no double entendre going on here. I'm suggesting nothing lewd when I suggest you play Hector Santiago. Or maybe I am? It does seem a bit crude of me to suggest someone who's been playing above his peripherals all year. That 2.71 ERA and that 4.51 xFIP will surely meet and become one in the future, especially when you consider his low ground ball rates and his mediocre K:BB ratio. He's a bit of a mirage but when you're in the desert, I'll take a pretend oasis over staring at the arid vastness. We have a seven game slate tonight so stumping for upside outside of the major names can be tough. And hell, what am I even saying? He's SP6 in terms of price on the day at $7,200. That said, the Astros...well maybe you've heard this before but they strike out a lot. Their lineup is basically 9 Adam Dunns of varying height and girth because they're all three true outcome types of players. Given that Hector gets to pitch in a relatively friendly pitchers' park and that he's at home, I'm willing to make him my SP2 today in cash games and possibly my SP1 in tourneys. Mmm, that sweet, sweet Hector...ahem, I mean Nectar. I think? But enough about my my confusion over sweet, sugary liquids, let's move on. Here's my emoji fire takes on today's DK slate...
