Should you go for Lugo?

Today's Schedule/Overview/Weather: All 30 teams are in action on Sunday, with the Red Sox taking on the Dodgers in the lone night game. Rain could be an issue for STL at ATL and SF at COL; elsewhere, the forecast looks good. Today's slate features six pitchers rated 1.0 or higher by the Matchups tool.

 

Notable Starts:

Seth Lugo gave up 5 ER to the Red Sox in his last start before the All-Star break, but his peripherals were still strong (1 walk to 6 Ks). And while there's still a wide gap between his 2.48 ERA and 3.71 xERA, he's really upped his game over his last five starts: 30% K%, 13.8% SwK, 23% K-BB%, 3.12 xERA. A home matchup against the White Sox and their league-worst .629 OPS should be a good way for him to shake off that last...
