Johnny Cueto
Cueto has struggled to consistently pick up wins thanks to the Reds streaky offense, but he's looked very impressive overall in his starts on the young season. He notched his second win of the season last time out, allowing two runs, but on just three hits with zero walks in eight innings of work against the Brewers. He'll face a weak-hitting Atlanta team on the road tonight, but remains a solid favorite in the game. He's priced quite highly on every site, but for good reason as basically every pitcher on the slate today has some flaws in what they offers and his are by far the least concerning.
