3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 7/20/18
Leading the MLB in home runs and RBI, J.D. Martinez offers elite upside to open the second half of the season. What other high-priced players should be on your radar on Friday?

Aaron Judge, OF, New York Yankees

Price: $4,500

Aaron Judge hasn't been quite as dominant as Martinez, but his .398 wOBA and .268 ISO both rank top-11 among qualifying bats on the season. Righty-versus-righty matchups haven't slowed him down much, with a .396 wOBA and .266 ISO on a hefty 48.5% hard-hit rate against right-handers.

The New York Mets' Noah Syndergaard will be making his second start since returning from the DL here, and after throwing only 75 pitches in his first game back, he won't likely get a full workload either. That means Judge should get a healthy dose of the Mets' relievers, who have the second-worst xFIP in the Majors.

Oddsmakers aren't worried about the matchup with Syndergaard either, and the New York Yankees' 4.75 implied total is tied for Friday's fourth-highest.
