Jonathan Lucroy, C, Milwaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $2,900

There's very likely going to be a "0" in the Milwaukee Brewers' run total today. I just have no semblance of an idea whether that will mean double-digits or zero. Either way, exposure to the Brewers' offense is a quality idea, and much of that starts with Jonathan Lucroy.

Quietly, Lucroy has been returning to All-Star form this year, especially over the past few weeks. His hard-hit rate for the season is at 32.3%, and it jumps to 41.9% in his last 48 plate appearances. His price hasn't increased to reflect these improvements, and that makes Lucroy a value on the slate.

Atlanta Braves starter Matt Wisler was largely horrendous against lefties last year, but he does give upside to righties, as well. They only strikeout 18.4% of the time, and that comes with a 37.4% hard-hit rate and just a 30.1% ground-ball rate. Those numbers align well with what Lucroy has been doing at the dish recently, and if Wisler wants to continue his recent improvements, he'll have to do so by stifling a streaking Lucroy.
