Brandon Belt, 1B, San Francisco Giants

FanDuel Price: $2,900

Brandon Belt is coming off a 2016 season that saw him post a career-best .374 wOBA, and he's on pace for another strong performance thanks to a .355 wOBA through 60 plate appearances this year.

He cracked right-handed pitching for an especially good 38.2% hard-hit rate with a big 45.9% fly-ball rate in 2016 and matches up very well with Jason Hammel, a righty who finished 2016 with a 4.28 SIERA while getting tagged for a .344 wOBA on a 32.8% hard-hit rate by left-handed bats.

Belt is not only our models' top point-per-dollar value on the slate, but he is our top-projected batter overall.
