4 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 8/28/17
Charlie Blackmon has huge upside as the Colorado Rockies boast the day's highest implied total for their home matchup with a struggling Jordan Zimmermann. Which other high-priced players are worth their lofty salaries on tonight's main slate?

Charlie Blackmon, OF, Colorado Rockies

Price: $4,800

Coors Field is always going to create plenty of fantasy appeal, but when you combine that with a matchup against Jordan Zimmermann, who is sporting a 5.25 SIERA while allowing a 39.3% hard-hit rate and 42.8% fly-ball rate this season, the Colorado Rockies' offense becomes hard to ignore.

That's also reflected in the betting lines on this one, with Colorado boasting an absurd 7.05 implied total -- more than 1.5 runs higher than any other team's clip.

Charlie Blackmon has a 39.2% hard-hit rate and 40.4% fly-ball rate against right-handed pitching this season. In 188 plate appearances against righties at home, that has translated to a ridiculous .521 wOBA and .440 ISO.
