Danny Valencia, 3B, Baltimore Orioles

FanDuel Price: $2,300

The Baltimore Orioles are looking like a popular stack destination this evening, with the highest implied team total on the board (5.04) against Eric Skoglund. And it's quite deserved, as Skoglund has allowed a .392 wOBA to opposing batters over 44 1/3 career innings.

Given how cheap the Orioles are outside of Manny Machado, the top half of the order should get most of the attention, but we can also drop down for Danny Valencia. He's only batting seventh tonight, but he's mashed lefties his whole career, owning a .371 wOBA and .182 ISO. He's started off 2018 on the right foot as well with a solid .377 expected weighted on-base average.

There are plenty bigger names on the Orioles, but make sure Valencia gets a look to fill out that stack.
