BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams
ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues
ANALYSIS: It's been a rough year for Fedde, but there have been some brief flashes of potential from him. He looked solid in his latest outing against Miami, where he held them to one run over five innings with eight strikeouts.
He'll look to build off that when he opens up this week with another game against the Marlins, who are slashing .222/.274/.371 and averaging 3.6 runs per game over their last 10 games. The main thing with this matchup is that it'll be in Miami this time, and the Marlins are hitting better at home this year (.241/.306/.369) than on the road (.230/.297/.381).
The news gets better for Fedde in his second start of the week, as the Reds have been mired in a slump over their last 10 games where they're slashing .209/.266/.335 and averaging 2.7 runs per game. Although that being said he's on the wrong side of Cincinnati's splits, as the Reds are hitting better against right-handed pitchers (.256/.334/.445) and they're hitting better at home (.260/.343/.462).
This is probably the best opportunity for managers to utilize Fedde in what's left of this season. Obviously there's a bit of a gamble given Fedde's struggles this year, but these are some nice matchups against weak offenses. He's one of the better options to target in deeper formats this week.
