3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 9/14/17
With a .390 wOBA agaisnt southpaws in 2017, Aaron Judge offers elite upside against Wade Miley and the Orioles tonight. Which other high-priced MLB players should be on your radar in daily fantasy baseball on Thursday?

Giancarlo Stanton, OF, Miami Marlins

Price: $4,600

Giancarlo Stanton has cooled down significantly since his absurd stretch in August. While his weak .269 wOBA over the past 15 days looks concerning on the surface, that is coming with only a .129 BABIP despite ranking 17th in average exit velocity during that time. For context, he has a .283 BABIP on the season and a .316 career average. He's still hitting the ball well, and his production will bounce back.

He's in a favorable spot for that bounce back tonight, taking on Jake Thompson and the Philadelphia Phillies.

Thompson has played in eight major league games this season (five starts), managing just a 5.28 SIERA. That's not very surprising, though, considering the 5.68 mark he posted in 10 games last year at the big league level, along with the 4.59 xFIP he posted in 22 Triple-A this year.

numberFire's models project Stanton as the top-scoring fantasy hitter on today's main slate.
