Brian Dozier, 2B, Minnesota Twins

Price: $3,800

Cole Hamels' numbers have been trending in the wrong direction for a few seasons now. His 3.99 SIERA in 2016 was a career-worst, and he has opened the 2017 season with a pretty brutal 4.93 mark. He's struggled against righties to start the year, which is evidenced by his 5.23 xFIP.

Brian Dozier's production hasn't been especially strong, but his batted-ball profile has been really nice and he's on pace for career bests in both hard-hit (36.5%) and soft-hit (12.7%) rate. He blasted southpaws for a .397 wOBA with a 39.5% hard-hit rate and 55.6% fly-ball rate in 2016, and bringing those numbers into the hitter-friendly Globe Life Park on a night where the wind is blowing straight out to center field gives him a ton of upside.
