Derek Dietrich, 2B, Miami Marlins

FanDuel Price: $2,800

Having his playing time bumped up after Dee Gordon's suspension, Derek Dietrich has been playing well this season, with 11 RBI's and 5 runs scored in 60 plate appearances, and sporting a 32.5 percent hard-hit rate and a career-low 18.3 percent strikeout rate.

Things remain encouraging if we increase the sample size as well, as over his career he has posted a .344 wOBA and .204 ISO against right-handed pitchers, with a 41.3 percent fly ball rate and 34.7 percent hard-hit rate.

He has a favorable matchup against Jeremy Hellickson tonight, who has an unimpressive 4.27 career SIERA, while sporting a 15.9 percent strikeout rate and 4.73 xFIP against left-handed hitters.
