Marwin Gonzalez, 1B, Houston Astros

Price: $2,600

Marwin Gonzalez' production hasn't been anything to write home about so far, and his price-tag is reflecting that, as it's now at its lowest mark of the young season.

The Houston offense is in an easy spot to like tonight. With the day's second-highest implied total (4.98) and a plus matchup against Baltimore righty Mike Wright, Gonzalez makes for a great way to get cheap exposure to this matchup.

Wright was much better in 2017 than his 5.76 ERA would indicate, having posted a 3.34 SIERA over 13 games. But he still allowed some solid contact to left-handed hitters, with a 34.6% hard-hit and 46.2% fly-ball rate. Gonzalez, on the other hand, mashed against righties, with a .397 wOBA on a 35.1% hard-hit rate.
