Matt Carpenter, 1B, St. Louis Cardinals

Price: $4,400

No surprise here, but tonight's Coors Field game has the highest over/under on the slate (10.5) and the St. Louis Cardinals 5.48 implied total is the day's highest mark as they go up against Colorado Rockies righty Antonio Senzatela.

Senzatela has a poor 4.86 SIERA through his first nine major league starts, and he's had an especially tough time against left-handed hitters, allowing a .331 wOBA and 5.03 xFIP.

Matt Carpenter is more than capable of taking advantage of a plus matchup against a righty, with a .391 wOBA, 43.6% hard-hit rate and 51.3% fly-ball rate against right-handed pitchers this season, and bringing a batted-ball profile like that into Coors Field gives him a ton of upside.
