DFS Amateur Hour - Wednesday

Normally I play only on Tuesdays and Fridays, but I wanted to see if I could build a tournament lineup around Clayton Kershaw (-350 favorite at home against the Phillies) and Mike Trout in Coors facing lefty Chris Rusin.

I stacked cheap White Sox against Drew Hutchison who might well dominate them, but Hutchison's been prone to blow-ups, and Garcia and LaRoche have a fair amount of pop at their prices. I also have a two-player Indians stack against Dan Straily, and threw in Giavotella who's leading off at Coors and paired with Trout.
