First Cup Fantasy Baseball: May 22 – Braxton Ashcraft Keeps it Going + Pitching Planner

Braxton Ashcraft was absolutely dominant against the Cardinals, cementing himself as the must-add pitching target on waiver wires. Corey Pieper breaks down the top injury news, studs and duds, the Pitching Planner segment, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. Unfortunately, we will be without Robby Snelling for the rest of this season and perhaps all of next season with Tommy John surgery. It looked like another injury for Ronald Acuna Jr., but that may have just been a scare. In studs and duds, Cade Cavalli matched Ashcraft with a brilliant nine-strikeout performance and Michael Harris crushed two home runs, while veteran ace Sandy Alcantara got completely shelled for six earned runs in a miserable outing. For the Pitching Planner, we break down the upcoming schedules for Landen Roupp, Bubba Chandler, and Cole Ragans to help you target the right arms for your weekend matchups.
