7 years agoKansas City Royals starting pitcher Jason Hammel could be in line for a rough start on Sunday. Hammel will take the mound against the Texas Rangers in Arlington. Hammel does not have a good history in Texas. In 22 innings, Hammels has given up 28 hits, 15 earned runs and 11 walks with just 17 strikeouts. While every pitcher has upside against the strikeout friendly Rangers, there is also a lot of risk. The Rangers rank ninth in the majors in home runs, and Hammels has surrendered seven in just 60 innings this season. Hammels is a pitcher I am avoiding in all mixed leagues or DFS formats today.--Ben Rolfe
