Jake Odorizzi, P, Tampa Bay Rays

FanDuel Price: $8,700

Jake Odorizzi is our second-ranked hurler for his home clash with the Kansas City Royals. Odorizzi has been a much better pitcher this season at Tropicana Field. In 70 1/3 frames at home, he's allowing a .291 wOBA, and his strikeout rate jumps to 24.9%. Those numbers check in at .321 and 19.1% when Odorizzi is on the road.

Kansas City, on the other hand, brings a pretty "meh" offense into this one. The Royals rank 23rd with a .308 wOBA, and their 6.2% walk rate comes in dead last.

The defending champs have been a team to target all year when they're away from Kauffman Stadium. The Royals rank 29th in road wOBA (.289), 24th in road homers (48), and 29th in road hard-hit rate (27.8%).

On top of all that, Kansas City has been sputtering lately, recording an MLB-worst .275 wOBA over the last 30 days.
