Yasmani Grandal, C, Los Angeles Dodgers

FanDuel Price: $2,800

Yasmani Grandal, a switch-hitter, has posted his strongest numbers against right-handed pitching over his career. That has held true so far this season, as he has opened with a decent .346 wOBA and a 42.9% hard-hit rate against righties.

He's not in an overwhelmingly strong spot today -- the Los Angeles Dodgers have a middling 4.18 implied total against righty Jeff Samardzija and the San Francisco Giants -- but Samardzija has allowed a 40.0% hard-hit rate and a 38.5% fly-ball rate to left-handed sticks in 2017.

Catcher is pretty thin tonight, and Grandal matches up well with Samardzija while also being reasonably priced.
