Pick two starting pitchers:
Wainwright v. PIT (Morton), @ HOU (Norris)
Gallardo @ SD (Luebke)
Bumgarner v. MIL (Greinke)

Wainwright appears to be back on track, he has two favorable starts to accumulate points. Gallardo has a great match up at Petco, but he was just shelled for 8 earned runs in his last start. Bumgarner has pitched excellent but he has a challenge against Greinke and the Brewers lineup.

Who should I start as my utility hitter?
De Aza - 3 v. CLE, 3 @ DET (De Aza is weak against lefties and he faces two in Smyly and Below)
Moustakas - 3 @ DET, 4 v. NYY (faces Verlander and Sabathia)

Wainwright, Gallardo, Moose

Can't believe you play in a league where you have the option to bench Bumgarner. I would start him over someone else I am sure..

I have Shields (v. SEA - Beavan this week) and Haren (v. TOR - Morrow this week) who have been my best starters thus far on the season and they have decent match ups. Wainwright has two favorable starts. That puts my last starter between Gallardo and Bumgarner. Even though Gallardo has a great match up @ SD, I'm reluctant to start him after how he was shelled by the Cardinals. Bumgarner has a more challenging match up, but he has pitched better.

De Aza and Moustakas is a tough call. I think De Aza has the better match ups, but Moustakas has an additional game.
