Giancarlo Stanton, OF, New York Yankees

Price: $4,500

Giancarlo Stanton crushed a grand slam last night, and the slugger once again finds himself in a terrific spot to produce on Friday.

The New York Yankees boast the day's highest implied total as they take on the Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Yefry Ramirez. Ramirez has appeared in 15 Major League games (10 starts) this season, struggling to the tune of a 4.69 SIERA while posting a 12.1% walk rate and 5.00 xFIP. He's also allowing a 42.9% fly-ball rate, which is consistent with his fly-ball slant in the Minors, with a 48.0% rate in Triple-A.

Stanton doesn't fare quite as well in righty-versus-righty matchups, but his 37.8% hard-hit rate and 37.8% fly-ball rate in that split leave him offering plenty of upside, especially in a matchup this good.
