Elvis Andrus, SS, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $4,400

With a massive 10.5-run over/under and an implied team total north of five runs (currently 5.36 runs), Elvis Andrus and the rest of his Texas Rangers buddies should see heavy ownership. They rank third as a team in wOBA (.347), and they lead the league in hard-hit rate (42.9%).

Jordan Lyles, tonight's starter opposing the Rangers, has been tough on same-sided bats, however. For his career, covering 417 innings pitched, Lyles has limited right-handed batters to a .331 wOBA and a strong 29.6% hard-hit rate and 29.2% fly-ball rate.

A Rangers stack makes a lot of sense tonight, but you should load up on Texas' lefties.
