Price: $10,200

Among the 156 pitchers to play at least 20 innings since the All-Star break, Chris Archer ranks fifth with a 33.1% strikeout rate, while his swinging strike rate sits at a big 13.9%.

That kind of strong, fantasy-friendly production is nothing new. On the season, he's sporting a 3.39 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA), while his his 29.7% strikeout rate ranks 5th, and his 13.4% swinging strike rate ranks 6th among qualifying pitchers.

The Toronto Blue Jays' active roster hasn't struck out a ton against righties, but Archer's K numbers are strong enough to leave him with big upside. The Jays' weak 92 wRC+ and their 3.61 implied total is tied as the day's lowest mark.
