Hope you had a good weekend because now it’s back to the Daily Fantasy Grind. Jonathan Sanchez is returning from the Disabled List to face the Astros. Personally, I don’t like drafting a pitcher when he is coming off an injury but he does have some solid value today. J.A. Happ and Mat Latos are my two favorite targets on the day. Latos is facing an American League team who he has already kept in check in his previous start. Happ on the other hand is returning home, where he is a much better pitcher. He also is facing the Royals, who struggle against most left-handers.
