3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 6/26/18
Few batters hit southpaws as well as J.D. Martinez, and he draws an ideal matchup against John Lamb and the Angels tonight. Which other high-priced players should be on your radar?

Mookie Betts, OF, Boston Red Sox

Price: $4,900

We stick with Boston's right-handed bats here as Mookie Betts is our models' top-projected fantasy bat for the day.

Betts ranks second among qualifying hitters this season with a .455 wOBA, while his .342 ISO is good for tops in the group. That production has come on some excellent contact, with a 44.9% hard-hit rate, 13.3% soft-hit rate and 46.4% fly-ball rate.

Just looking at his numbers against southpaws, that wOBA jumps to .461 with a .379 ISO. He should have no issues with Lamb, and combining his excellent numbers against both right- and left-handed pitching with the Angels' relievers ranking bottom-10 in xFIP this season, he will continue to be in a great spot if Boston beats up on Lamb early.
