Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels

FanDuel Price: $4,800

Mike Trout is never a bad play, and he’s also not human. In the midst of his fifth full season, Trout has never posted a wOBA under .400.

Trout’s career splits aren’t too noteworthy, but he has fared slightly better against right-handed pitchers (.410) than he does versus southpaws (.397). Today, he will see a righty -- and a very mediocre one, at that -- in the form of Cardinals’ starter Mike Leake, who owns a career 3.98 SIERA.

Our models rate Trout as the fourth-ranked hitter, projecting him to score 13.95 points and giving him the second-best odds (.30) of launching a home run.
