4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Studs to Target on 9/28/16
Cole Hamels is sporting a 25.0% strikeout rate, and he gets a matchup with the strikeout-prone Brewers. What other high-priced players are worth checking out?

Cole Hamels, P, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $9,900

In the second half, Cole Hamels is holding hitters to a .293 wOBA with a 25.0% strikeout rate and 8.8% walk rate. The walks are a little too high, if we're being picky, but his 50.0% ground-ball rate this season helps limit the damage.

Overall this year, the Milwaukee Brewers have been a dangerous team to target. They hit for power and are patient at the plate, ranking third in walk rate (9.9%), but they also have the highest strikeout rate (25.5%) in baseball. Over the last 30 days, however, Milwaukee's walk rate has dropped to 8.4% while they've kept whiffing with a 26.3% strikeout rate.

The Texas Rangers are massive favorites (-210 moneyline), and the Brewers have an implied total of 3.73.
