PITCHER
Corey Kluber, CLE at CWS ($13,100): While Kluber has hit double-digit strikeouts just once in his past five outings, his 2.55 FIP and 34.3 strikeout percentage remain elite marks. The White Sox also enter with the third-lowest .305 wOBA and target-worthy 23.4 strikeout percentage against right-handed hurlers, too.
Tyler Mahle, CIN at NYM ($6,700): Through two starts, Mahle's success in the minors has translated to the highest level. The rookie pitched six scoreless innings against Pittsburgh last time out, and the Mets' lineup is a shell of its midseason version. Mahle's salary is also well within flier territory.
CATCHER
J.T. Realmuto, MIA at ATL ($3,400): The backstop has posted a rock-solid .380 on-base percentage and .370 wOBA against southpaws this season, and Sean Newcomb has allowed .362 and .342 marks to right-handed hitters. Realmuto also hits in the heart of the lineup and checks out at a discounted price.
FIRST BASE
Eric Hosmer, KC vs. MIN ($4,400): With Kyle Gibson surrendering a 370 wOBA to left-handed hitters this season, Hosmer is a strong value lean. The first baseman has posted a high-end .404 on-base percentage and .396 wOBA against for the campaign.
SECOND BASE
Brian Dozier, MIN at KC ($4,700): It's a shallow talent pool at the keystone, so Dozier's second-half rebound makes him a go-to option against Sam Gaviglio. Dozier boasts a .374 wOBA against right-handed hurlers since the All-Star break, and Gaviglio has surrendered a .380 wOBA to righty bats for the year.
THIRD BASE
Eugenio Suarez, CIN at NYM ($3,500):Matt Harvey surrendered seven runs through just two innings in his first outing back from a lengthy injury absence, so he presents a ripe matchup. Suarez owns a .365 wOBA against right-handed pitchers this year and offers cap relief at this price.
SHORTSTOP
Paul DeJong, STL at SD ($4,100): With a .333 ISO and .392 wOBA against southpaws, DeJong sets up nicely against Clayton Richard. The lefty has surrendered a .376 wOBA to right-handed hitters and is also in poor recent form. Richard has allowed five homers and sports a 5.79 ERA over his past three starts.
OUTFIELD
Cody Bellinger, LAD vs. COL ($4,700): The rookie's .981 OPS, .356 ISO and .395 wOBA against righties are high-end marks, so his salary offers room for profit. Additionally, Jon Gray isn't a tough matchup. He's allowed a .344 wOBA to left-handed hitters this year with a .343 mark away from Coors Field.
Jose Martinez, STL at SD ($4,200): The sample size is small, but Martinez has crushed lefties in the majors with a .435 ISO and .543 wOBA through 70 plate appearances. As highlighted, he lands in a solid matchup against Clayton Richard, too.
Scott Schebler, CIN at NYM ($3,500): As noted, this is a juicy matchup against Matt Harvey. He's allowed a .382 wOBA to left-handed hitters, and Schebler owns a .397 wOBA against righties since returning from the disabled list Aug, 18. The outfielder's price is right, too.
