This article is part of our FantasyDraft MLB series.
PitcherStephen Strasburg, WAS at MIA ($24,400) – Strasburg has recorded 23 strikeouts in his past three starts and has allowed just four runs during that span. The Marlins have the best slugger in the game right now, but as a team, they are just middle of pack when it comes to most measurables against right-handers.
Robert Stephenson, CIN vs MIL ($13,600) — Stephenson enters with a 5.52 ERA and he's averaging just 6.41 points per game, but he's been locked in over his past two starts and is facing a team that strikes out at a very high rate. Stephenson has recorded 18 strikeouts in his past two starts and averaged over 25 fantasy points per game during that span.
INFIELD
Kris Bryant, CHC at PIT ($10,200) – Steven Brault has made a handful of appearances this season, but all in relief and he hasn't been impressive. Bryant has struggled along with the entire Cubs lineup over the past couple games, but these things tend to even out and the correction is coming very soon. Bryant enters with a .410 wOBA against lefties this season, which leads the Cubs.
Trevor Story, COL vs SF ($7,600) – Trevor Story has not lived up to the hype that surrounded him entering the season, but he's getting hot at the right time and his salary has yet to catch up to his performance. Story has done most of his damage this season against lefties and he'll face a lefty in Ty Blach. The Rockies are one of the better stacking options on the board and Story should be included in that stack as he enters with a .432 wOBA against lefties this season.
Eric Hosmer, KC at DET ($8,800) – Anibal Sanchez enters with a 6.95 ERA and he's been even worse than that over his past three starts, allowing 18 runs in 11.2 innings. The Royals are a dangerous team to stack because they are so erratic, but even if you don't want to stack them fully, you should find a spot for Hosmer, who is reasonably priced considering the opponent.
OUTFIELD
Albert Almora Jr., CHC at PIT ($6,800) – With Brault on the mound for the Pirates, the Cubs are one of the best stacks of the night. Almora Jr. enters with a .399 wOBA against lefties this season, which is third on the Cubs.
Lonnie Chisenhall, CLE at CHW ($8,100) – David Holmberg gets the start for the White Sox, and while his ERA of 3.55 isn't bad, he's built that number off a lot of very short stints out of the bullpen. The Indians are definitely in play for a stack and Chisenhall leads the Indians in wOBA against lefties this season.
Kevin Kiermaier, TB vs MN ($7,800) – Bartolo Colon has exceeded expectations since joining the Twins, but that isn't necessarily saying much. The Rays have disappointed this season, but they've been hitting the ball well lately and crushed Twins pitching on Monday. I'm looking for a similar effort against Colon, and Kiermaier should lead the way as he enters with a .368 wOBA against righties this season, which is second on the team.
UTILITY
Eddie Rosario, MN at TB ($7,800) – Jake Odorizzi enters with a 4.85 ERA on the season. Rosario has hit at high level for the better part of the past two months and he's been especially good against righties. Rosario enters with a .362 wOBA against righties this season, which is second on the Twins.
J.D. Martinez, AZ at LAD ($8,800) – Martinez has mashed on lefties all season and as long as his name isn't named Clayton Kershaw, he's in play. Martinez will face Hyun-Jin Ryu, who has pitched fairly well this season, but is coming off a start where he allowed six runs in four innings. Martinez enters with a .551 wOBA against lefties this season, which leads the majors.
