Pitch-and-ditch for Saturday Sept 22nd

Sep 20th, 2007 by winabango

Here are two pitchers that I feel will give you decent Fantasy value for Saturday. Hopefully these pitchers are available for you to pick up Friday morning. If they are not, e-mail me, or post pitchers in the comments and I will help as best I can.

Here are pitcher for Saturday.

UPDATE:  Ian Kennedy has been scratched from his scheduled start for Saturday.  so I would take Paul Byrd at this point if you need a pitcher.
Ian Kennedy - NYY vs TOR - Kennedy is a pitcher known more for control then a blazing fastball. He does not have the easiest of matchups on Saturday, but he went 7 innings and struck out 7 in his last start. That start was also against Toronto. Now he faces the same team at home. The Blue Jays may have Frank Thomas, but they do not have any real power hitters that can take advantage of the short porch in right field at Yankee stadium. The Blue Jays are also ranked 26th in runs scored and 22nd in homeruns on the road. The powerful Yankee offense should provide enough to give Kennedy a win, and as long as he doesn’t walk many batters, the ERA should be fine as well.

Kevin Correia - SF vs CIN - The game is being played in San Francisco which is a great pitchers park with its very deep right center alley. He is facing Bronson Arroyo who gives up 7-10 hits per game, and thet may be enough for the Giants to push some runs across. By the way, if you have Dave Roberts, this is a good game to play him since Arroyo has such a high leg kick. Correia needs to not walk as many batters as his last outing (5) to be effective. This is a risky option, but then again, what options in pitch-and-ditch are sure bets.

Other pitchers of interest to me are Paul Byrd if you are looking for wins and do not necessarily need strikeouts. The bad part is that he is facing Dan Haren. Scott Baker would also be a decent choice since he is facing a weak Chicago White Sox offense. However, he pitchers to contact and that could mean a feast for Thome. Finally, Jack Cassel from San Diego is pitching at home, but I would not mess with the hot Colorado offense at this point.
