If you are going to have a chance to win your fantasy league you need to have a solid rotation. There are a handful of starters that are simply carrying fantasy teams early on, but one in particular that has caught my eye.
Chien-Ming Wang was lights out again on Friday night as he went the distance against the Red Sox to pick up his third win of the season. The Yankees' ace only gave up one run and two hits as he continues to baffle hitters with his sinker. The way he is mixing his pitches right now is totally making people look foolish.
His strikeout numbers haven't been overly impressive (11 K's thru 3 games), but that is not his forte. In fact, he only recorded 104 K's in 199 IP last season. Still, after winning 19 games in back-to-back seasons there is plenty to love about Wang.
Wang went seven strong in his debut to beat Roy Halladay (and my fantasy team) and is coming off a steady six-inning effort against Tampa Bay. Owners lucky enough to have Wang in the fold have plenty of more wins ahead.
Look for Wang to continue to perform like an ace throughout the season.
