Michael Conforto, OF, New York Mets

FanDuel Price: $2,300

Since getting recalled by the Mets, Michael Conforto has been a fixture in the lineup when the Mets are taking on a right-handed pitcher. While he has a miserable .137 wOBA this season against southpaws, Conforto owns a much more respectable .348 wOBA against right-handers.

These splits make him a headache in season-long leagues, but his struggles have kept his price low for DFS, resulting in Conforto being a solid value option whenever he's facing a righty.

The opposition today is New York Yankees right-hander Nathan Eovaldi. While Eovaldi has some upside of his own, as a lefty hitting in homer-happy Yankee Stadium, Conforto does, as well. Eovaldi is giving up a 35.9% hard-hit rate and .371 wOBA to lefties, so Conforto could pay off in a big way.
