Andrew Benintendi, OF, Boston Red Sox

FanDuel Price: $3,800

Andrew Benintendi may be giving the thumbs up, but he gets a thumbs down tonight.

No question, he's an amazing talent, and with his low 11.6% strikeout rate, he should be a cash-game staple on plenty a slate.

But his price has been creeping up the last couple days, and he hasn't exhibited much power so far with a .093 isolated power and 33.3% hard-hit rate.

We don't want to use Tanaka today, but he's hardly someone to target, either. He has a lackluster 4.36 SIERA, but he still owns an excellent 25.4% hard-hit rate and 51.5% ground-ball rate.

If you want to be contrarian, you can still go with Mookie Betts, who's almost always in play. But as one of the more expensive players on the slate, it's hard to justify using Benintendi over guys in better matchups.
