Stephen Piscotty, OF, Oakland Athletics

Price: $3,000

Over 345 career plate appearances against lefties, Oakland Athletics outfielder Stephen Piscotty owns a 32.8% hard-hit rate, 15.3% soft-hit rate and 37.2% fly-ball rate, and that batted-ball profile has translated to a .369 wOBA and .189 ISO.

Texas Rangers left-hander Cole Hamels makes for a particularly good matchup.

The 34-year-old Hamles has seen his SIERA climb in each of the last three seasons, peaking at a career-worst 4.90 in 2017. His start to 2018 has actually been a solid one, but that has only been a five-game sample and has come with him allowing a career-high 42.5% hard-hit rate

With this game taking place at hitter-friendly Globe Life Park in Arlington, Piscotty offers no shortage of upside.
