5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Studs to Target on 9/6/16
Kris Bryant has a superb matchup against Wily Peralta. What other high-priced players are worth a look?

Gio Gonzalez, P, Washington Nationals

FanDuel Price: $8,700

If you're looking to pivot off Kluber, Gio Gonzalez is as good of an option as anyone. The Washington Nationals' southpaw gets a tasty home matchup with the Atlanta Braves.

Atlanta ranks 28th in wOBA (.298), 29th in wRC+ (83), and last in homers (98). The Braves also sit last in ISO versus lefties (.103).

It's the second straight superb matchup for Gonzalez, who held the Philadelphia Phillies to a pair of hits and one run over six strong innings in his last start. Gonzalez's strikeout rate spikes to 25.6% at Nationals Park, compared to a 19.0% clip away from home. He was excellent in August, racking up a 24.2% strikeout rate and 5.5% walk rate last month.
