3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 9/18/18
Jose Ramirez offers a ton of upside against White Sox southpaw Carlos Rodon. Which other high-priced players should be on your radar?

Jose Ramirez, 2B, Cleveland Indians

Price: $4,800

Chicago White Sox southpaw Carlos Rodon has a strong 3.10 ERA on the season, but his career-worst 5.00 SIERA is an ugly mark and suggests that regression is likely to hit him hard. His 18.6% strikeout rate is a career-low and comes with a double-digit walk rate (10.6%), while right-handed bats have cracked him for a 5.25 xFIP.

The Cleveland Indians' offense should have no trouble with Rodon, and that starts with Jose Ramirez.

The switch-hitting Ramirez doesn't do his best work against lefties, but he still has a more than competent .361 wOBA and .217 ISO in the split. And if the Sox go to the bullpen for a righty, J-Ram's marks in that split jump to an absurd .420 wOBA and .328 ISO.
