4 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 6/27/17
Max Scherzer offers elite upside against the Cubs with his deadly 35.3% strikeout rate. Which other high-priced MLB players should be on your daily fantasy radar on Tuesday?

Max Scherzer, P, Washington Nationals

Price: $12,000

Max Scherzer has been absolutely deadly this season. His 2.73 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) is on pace to be the second-best mark of his career, while his league-leading 35.3% strikeout rate and 16.0% swinging-strike rates are both also on pace to be career highs.

The Chicago Cubs have struggled with right-handed pitching in 2017, ranking bottom 10 with an 89 wRC+ while striking out at a top-12 rate.

The Washington Nationals are sizable -164 favorites in this one, and Scherzer combines his strikeout upside with a pretty solid floor while the Cubs' 3.32 implied total is Tuesday's lowest mark.
