Charlie Morton, Houston Astros

Start: July 14th vs. Minnesota Twins
ESPN ownership: 33 percent

Charlie Morton's return from the disabled list prior to the All-Star break didn't find the resurgent veteran flashing the strikeout numbers that made him a surprise waiver-wire gem of 2017's first half, but allowing one measly earned run across six innings of work is nothing to complain about.

The 33-year-old might have better luck racking up punchouts against a Twins team that rosters Miguel Sano and Byron Buxton, two of the most strikeout-prone hitters in the majors against righties. A refreshed Minnesota squad will hope to break out of the month-long power slump that took them into the break on a low note, but bear in mind that this is a team that has been pedestrian producers on the road all season.

Morton should continue rounding back into form following a month-long layoff, and with the Houston offense firing on all cylinders, he's in a nice spot to bring home the W both for the 'Stros and for fantasy owners.
