Lucas Duda, 1B, New York Mets

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Lucas Duda is off to a strong start to 2017, with a .399 wOBA on a 41.1% hard-hit rate and 47.9% fly-ball rate over 120 plate appearances, bouncing back nicely from a down year in 2016.

He has also always been dangerous against right-handed pitching, with a career 38.7% hard-hit rate, 13.4% soft-hit rate and 47.6% fly-ball rate, putting him in a great spot tonight against Milwaukee Brewers righty Junior Guerra.

Guerra is coming off a 2016 season that saw him post a shaky 4.42 SIERA, giving him a 4.35 career-average. He has been tagged for a career 37.9% hard-hit rate by left-handed bats, and Duda is a big threat to take advantage of that.
