12. Ben Revere-OF-Toronto Blue Jays: The Blue Jays are trying to hold off the Yankees atop the AL East while New York is hoping their hated rivals can give them some help as the Red Sox visit the Rodgers Centre. Tonight, Boston starts Rick Porcello who Ben Revere has a good history against. Revere enters tonight 9-26 (.346) with a triple and a pair of RBI.

11. Yadier Molina-C-St. Louis Cardinals: If you are in a league that allows for using the afternoon game, check out Yadier Molina behind the plate. He and the Cards will take on Dan Haren today, and Molina comes into play 6-16 (.375) with a double and an RBI against the Cubs veteran.

10. Edwin Encarnacion-DH-Toronto Blue Jays: Toronto has crushed Rick Porcello this season, so it’s not surprising that they have multiple entries in my top batter vs pitcher matchups today. Encarnacion is 9-23 (.391) in his career against Porcello including four doubles, a home run, and six RBI.

9. Kendrys Morales-DH-Kansas City Royals: The Royals salvaged a split last night in their four-game set with the Indians and now head to Detroit to take on the Tigers this weekend. Tonight, they’ll face Juster Verlander who Kendrys Morales has hit well in his career going 11-30 (.367) with four doubles, a pair of home runs, and ten RBI.
