Justin Turner, 3B, Los Angeles Dodgers

FanDuel Price: $3,400

With the Arizona Diamondbacks, Cleveland Indians, New York Yankees, and Atlanta Braves all sporting high implied team totals, the Los Angeles Dodgers' late game at home against Andrew Suarez doesn't figure to garner much attention.

But Suarez is posting some rather poor marks against right-handed batters, including a 44.3% hard-hit rate, 4.88 FIP, and .372 expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA). He's allowed two dingers in each of his last three starts, with all six coming from the right side.

Chris Taylor might see some ownership as a cheap shortstop if he's batting leadoff, but the same is unlikely to be true for the rest of the lineup, including Justin Turner. Turner started off slow when he came off the shelf in May, but he's come around in a big way and is doing much of his damage against southpaws. With the platoon advantage, Turner is producing a 49.0% hard-hit rate and 45.0% fly-ball rate, helping him to a .437 wOBA and .217 ISO.

While others spend up for Jose Ramirez or Eduardo Escobar at third base, you can pivot over to Turner in the mid-range while still maintaining plenty of upside.
