Tim Anderson, SS, Chicago White Sox

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Even as underdogs, the Chicago White Sox have a solid 4.55 implied total as they take on Arizona Diamondbacks lefty Patrick Corbin at the hitter-friendly Chase Field.

Corbin has a 4.19 SIERA through nine starts this season, and following the 4.38 he posted last season, it doesn't look likely that he will improve much in that area moving forward. He has had an especially tough time with right-handed hitters in 2017, getting tagged for a .360 wOBA and 4.44 xFIP on a 34.1% hard-hit rate.

Tim Anderson doesn't have great overall numbers from the dish through his first two major league seasons, but he has shown real promise in 136 plate appearances against southpaws with a hefty 37.1% hard-hit rate. That puts him in a good spot to take advantage of today's favorable matchup.
