6 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Rick Porcello will start Game 4 of the American League Championship Series against the Astros in Houston on Wednesday. Porcello has been effective out of the bullpen for short stints this postseason, and he also held the Yankees to one run on four hits in five innings in Game 4 of the Division Series. He faced the Astros twice in the regular season and had a 4.50 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 8.3 K/9 over 12 innings. Still, starting him on the road against a potent offense will be a risk for DFS owners.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
