Yankees                
  Andruw Jones R Brett Cecil          

TBA appears to be busy tomorrow.

The unsponsored picks for tomorrow include:

Pitcher (to start): He’s owned for fantasy purposes, but I like the prospect of Matt Moore against a somewhat lefty heavy Indians lineup. Jon Niese, Ross Detwiler and Travis Wood are all perfectly acceptable streaming options.

Pitcher (bum): Could the Yankees form the much dreaded Bugs Bunny Conga Line against Brett Cecil? Might the Red Sox match the Yankees fervor against Philip Humber?

Hitter (power): The ghost of Andruw Jones is known to be particularly lethal to mediocre lefties like Cecil. Plenty of alternatives in the power department tomorrow like Scott Hairston, Jim Thome, Brandon Moss, Seth Smith, and Tyler Moore.

Hitter (speed): Besides the usual suspects, I see Tony Campana and Cameron Maybin as nice stolen base picks.

Two things:

Colvin is a lefty.

Moore for some reason is garbage against lefties. Maybe why he got battered in his last start vs. the Indians. He has been better at home though, so he’s got that going for him.
