Ryan Raburn, OF, Colorado Rockies

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Ryan Raburn isn't a lock to be in the lineup tonight, so make sure to keep an eye on that when the Colorado Rockies release their lineup today. Rayburn has been seeing quite a few starts lately, especially against lefties.

Tonight's matchup isn't an easy one, but Rich Hill hasn't been pitching quite as well this year as his 2.09 ERA might make it look. His 3.51 SIERA, which isn't a bad mark by any stretch, is a little bit less intimidating.

Raburn has always been at his best over his career against lefties. He owns a .357 wOBA with .224 ISO, 36.2% hard-hit rate and 44.9% fly-ball rate against southpaws.

The game tonight is at Coors Field, making that high fly-ball rate is especially encouraging. Raburn's upside and low salary make it easy to stomach what could be a difficult matchup.
