Jesse Winker, OF, Cincinnati Reds

Price: $3,000

As has been the case for most of the season, FanDuel continues to leave Jesse Winker under-priced in matchups against right-handed pitching.

Winker has tagged righties for a 43.8% hard-hit rate and 11.1% soft-hit rate this season, which has translated to a solid .349 wOBA. If we expand our view back to include his 2017 campaign (making the sample a significant 322 plate appearances), he's got a .380 wOBA and .170 ISO on a 41.7% hard-hit and 10.4% soft-hit rate in the split.

Today he's up against James Shields and the Chicago White Sox, and Shields' ugly 5.04 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) in 2018 and his 5.17 xFIP over the last three seasons don't pose much of a threat of slowing down Winker.
