Yairo Munoz, 2B, St. Louis Cardinals

Price: $2,300

Another weak southpaw in action tonight is the Detroit Tigers' Daniel Norris. Norris has only pitched in six games (three starts) in 2018, and while his 3.78 SIERA is good, that comes on a sample of fewer than 20 innings pitched. When you consider the 4.94 mark he posted in 22 games (101 2/3 innings) in 2017, his small sample of recent success doesn't look as impressive.

His batted-ball numbers have also been brutal this year, allowing a 42.3% hard-hit, 13.5% soft-hit and 41.2% fly-ball rate. 2017 saw him post marks of 41.7%, 16.3% and 39.1%, respectively.

Yairo Munoz has made 269 plate appearances in his rookie season, notching a reasonable .335 wOBA and .156 ISO on a 35.7% hard-hit rate. His ISO jumps to .221 against southpaws, and he offers big upside against Norris.
