Nolan Arenado, 3B, Colorado Rockies

Price: $5,100

Playing at home at Coors Field today, the Colorado Rockies have an absolutely massive 6.75 implied total, which sits way ahead of the second-highest mark of the day (5.48).

Part of having an implied total that high comes from their dreamy matchup, taking on the Miami Marlins and southpaw Wei-Yin Chen. Chen is coming off a 2017 campaign that saw him post a career-worst 4.61 SIERA, but he has blown that mark away in 2018, with a 5.42 over 10 games. His batted-ball profile is especially worrying in Coors, allowing a 47.3% fly-ball and 33.6% hard-hit rate. As a group, the Marlins' relievers also allow the fourth-highest hard-hit rate in the Majors (38.8%) while sporting the third-worst SIERA.

Don't expect Nolan Arenado to have any trouble taking advantage of this spot. In 128 plate appearances at home and against lefties over the last two seasons, he has turned a 44.3% hard-hit and 35.1% fly-ball rate into a ridiculous .562 wOBA and .466 isolated slugging (ISO).
