5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Studs to Target on 8/16/16
Justin Verlander gets a home meeting with the Royals, who own an MLB-worst .290 wOBA on the road. What other high-priced players are worth checking out?

Manny Machado, 3B, Baltimore Orioles

FanDuel Price: $4,000

On the other side of the matchup are the Baltimore Orioles, whose 4.98 implied total against Boston left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez is the third-highest non-Coors clip of the night.

Manny Machado owns a .387 wOBA against lefties with a 38.3% fly-ball rate and 38.3% hard-hit rate. When he's at home, his wOBA versus southpaws jumps to .425.

In 64 2/3 frames this season, Rodriguez has allowed a 3.58 wOBA, 31.5% hard-hit rate, and 46.2% fly-ball rate righties. His strikeout rate against left-handed hitters is a superb 25.0%, but that number falls to 17.0% versus righties.
