FanDuel Price: $2,000
It would be slightly hyperbolic to call Kiké Hernandez a min-price Josh Donaldson against lefties, but little homie is close. With the Los Angeles Dodgers facing lefty Christian Friedrich tonight, let's give that hype train a slight nudge.
Through his first 161 career plate appearances against lefties, Hernandez has a 35.1% hard-hit rate and 5.3% soft-hit rate. He has more than three times as many extra-base hits (21) as he has soft-hit balls (6). He's a lefty-crushing deity in a 5'11" frame who has come to save us all from the horrors of terrible punt options.
It's never exciting to use a guy at Petco Park and its 29th-ranked park factor, but it is still a spot where you can see some dingers. It is 18th in three-year average home run park factor, and it moved up to 10th last year. That long-ball hope should be enough to keep Hernandez on our radar with his price and talent combo.
