3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 6/5/18
Despite Monday's poor showing, Aaron Judge offers elite upside tonight against Marco Estrada. Which other high-priced players should be on your radar?

J.D. Martinez, OF, Boston Red Sox

Price: $4,600

J.D. Martinez has been a monster from the dish this season, posting a .430 wOBA and .333 isolated slugging (ISO) while ranking first in the Majors in both home runs (19) and RBIs (50).

Against right-handed pitching this season, he has a massive 51.9% hard-hit rate with only a 6.0% soft-hit rate, which has translated to a gaudy .448 wOBA and .391 ISO. That makes tonight's matchup with Tigers righty Artie Lewicki a dreamy spot as long as Martinez is in the lineup, something that's not a given after he exited early in his last game.

Lewicki has pitched in only 10 Major League games over his first two seasons, and his 4.77 SIERA is not an encouraging mark. It's a small sample, but he's allowing a 37.4% hard-hit and 39.6% fly-ball rate with only a 12.1% soft-hit rate, and Martinez's power gives him massive upside in this one.
