Joey Gallo, 3B, Texas Rangers

Joey Gallo is known to run hot and cold, and the past two weeks have seen the Texas Rangers slugger slip on a particularly icy patch, with an ugly .136 batting average and 47.9% strikeout rate over his past 49 plate appearances.

But a 52.4% hard-hit rate shows that Gallo is still rocking the baseball when he does make contact. The slugger owns a tremendous .308 career isolated slugging against righties, so daily fantasy players can look for Gallo to catch a little heat this week against soft right-handers like Mike Leake, James Shields, Lucas Giolito, and Reynaldo Lopez.
