4 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 8/17/17
The Rangers have the highest implied total on the main slate, and Joey Gallo offers elite upside. What other high-priced players should you target in daily fantasy on Thursday?

Aaron Judge, OF, New York Yankees

Price: $4,300

The Yankees' 3.99 implied total is a pretty ugly mark, even on tonight's short five-game main slate. But they do draw a plus matchup against Mets' southpaw Steven Matz, so their offense isn't completely without upside.

Matz has a weak 4.68 SIERA on the season, and he has been especially bad against right-handed hitters, allowing a .365 wOBA on a 35.5% hard-hit rate.

Aaron Judge is not a righty who leaves much room for error for opposing pitchers, having tagged southpaws for a .407 wOBA and .301 ISO on a 44.9% hard-hit rate this season. He also ranks first in the majors in average exit velocity over the past 15 days.
