Oswaldo Arcia, OF, Minnesota Twins

FanDuel Price: $2,700

Despite a very high strikeout rate, Oswaldo Arcia has been producing well this year, with three home runs, nine RBI, and five runs scored through 16 games.

He has a career .346 wOBA and .230 ISO in 625 plate appearances against right-handed pitchers, and while the 40.0 percent strikeout rate he's sporting on the year helps to keep his salary low (and gives him a low floor), it also means he is typically a great value when he's up against a righty.

Mat Latos has managed an impressive 1.84 ERA to open the season, but he's doing it with a 4.96 SIERA and 12.6 percent strikeout rate, which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in his ability to keep his ERA that low.

The Twins/White Sox game is one of two on the slate with an over/under of nine, and the Twins have the fifth-highest implied total of the day, which also gives Arcia's value a bit of a boost.
