4 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 4/5/17
Bryce Harper, OF, Washington Nationals
Price: $4,600
Even in a disappointing 2016 campaign that saw him struggle through some injuries, Bryce Harper swatted 24 home runs with 86 RBI through 147 games while posting a solid .352 wOBA, 35.0% hard-hit rate and 42.7% fly-ball rate against right-handed pitching. That's following a 2015 campaign that saw him blast righties for a .478 wOBA and .354 isolated slugging (ISO).
He combines those promising numbers with a great matchup today, and the Washington Nationals are sporting a nice 4.69 implied total against the Miami Marlins.
The Marlins will start the right-handed Dan Straily, who posted an ugly 4.67 SIERA in 2016 with a 5.39 xFIP against left-handed hitters -- a mark not too far off his career 5.24 xFIP against lefties.
