Price: $2,500
Boston Red Sox righty Rick Porcello didn't have a bad 2017 season by any stretch, though his 4.28 SIERA represented his worst clip since 2010. What was concerning was his work against left-handed bats. He allowed them to post a huge .360 wOBA on a 41.2% hard-hit and 45.6% fly-ball rate.
The switch-hitting Aaron Hicks does tend to do better work against southpaws, but a matchup with Porcello makes him a solid value at this price
In 2017, Hicks had a .352 wOBA and .214 ISO against righties, despite managing only a .257 BABIP. As an added bonus, Fenway has the most hitter-friendly park factor among Thursday's main slate ballparks.
