Pitcher and hitter rankings for Monday
Jhoulys Chacin (R), 28 percent Andre Dawson Jersey ownership in ESPN leagues, San Diego Padres vs. San Francisco Giants: On the average, pitcher's skills are about 10 percent better at home. This is park unadjusted, so it makes sense Chacin's numbers in Petco exceed that 10 percent mark. However, he's been even better than that at home, which is just Ben Zobrist Youth Jersey a sample size effect. Look for Chacin's home success to continue in a juicy matchup against the offensively-challenged Giants. Ian Kennedy (R), 17 percent, Kansas City Royals vs. Tampa Bay Rays: While it's early in the week to chase wins, if you Carlos Zambrano Youth Jersey can absorb some ratio risk, Kennedy is in a good spot for whiffs and a possible victory taking on the strikeout-happy Rays in Kauffman Stadium. Mike Montgomery (L), 9 percent, Chicago Cubs vs. Pittsburgh Pirates: Montgomery grabs another start while Jon Fergie Jenkins Kids Jersey Lester is out, drawing a Pirates club sitting near the bottom of the league in terms of production versus southpaws. Despite spending much of the campaign in the bullpen, Montgomery should be fine to Jason Hammel Jersey pitch as deep into the game as his effectiveness allows, as he's coming off a six-inning stint against the Reds.
