3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 7/23/18
Luis Severino, P, New York Yankees
Price: $11,400
Luis Severino's performance in 2018 has established that the outstanding season he posted last year was no fluke. His 3.22 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) represents a slight improvement from 2017's 3.25 SIERA. While he has seen a slight dip in strikeout rate, his 28.7% clip is still a terrific mark, and it comes with a 12.2% swinging-strike rate.
He had a rough outing in his last start, but he has scored at least 48 FanDuel points in five of his last nine starts -- with at least 58 in four of those games. A matchup with the Tampa Bay Rays also creates plenty of upside for right-handed pitchers as the Rays strike out at an above-average rate (22.5%) against righties.
Tampa's 2.97 implied total is Monday's lowest mark, and the New York Yankees' -248 moneyline makes them the day's second-biggest favorites.
