3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 8/6/18
Trevor Bauer, SP, Cleveland Indians
Price: $11,500
The Minnesota Twins' 3.35 implied total is the lowest on Monday's slate, and they can thank Cleveland Indians righty Trevor Bauer for that distinction. On the season, the righty owns an absurd 30.7% strikeout rate, which is easily a slate-best mark, along with a saucy 3.27 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA).
Over the last two weeks, the Twins check in toward the bottom of the pack in weighted on-base average (wOBA), posting a .316 mark (18th). They've also been adept at swinging and missing, with a 22.9% strikeout rate over that same time span.
Putting all of those metrics together, Bauer ranks as numberFire's top-projected pitcher on Monday's main slate.
