I would probably take Kendrick as he is hot and the location is pretty decent. Next thought would be Wolf but I wouldn't do any of the others.

This. Richard has actually been kinda hot lately too, but the D-Back offense has the potential to really hurt him. Kendrick is my pick as well.

I would go Wolf here.

Don't be shocked if Buchholz does well against Toronto. They don't hit him very well.

I would go with Wolf. He is at home and Pittsburgh is not a strong hitting team.

Wolf or Kendrick.

Wolf isn't pitching as well as Kendrick is but he has the better matchup.

Wolf or Kendrick

Wolf will give you a solid start.. But Kendrick could have a steller start.. If you screwed and you looking for a bang one time, I would go with Kendrick, but if our winning and just want to be solid go Wolf

Sorry...I wish I would have been more forceful on the Clay call. He pitched an absolute gem.
