Chris Archer, P, Tampa Bay Rays

Price: $10,400

Chris Archer has had an excellent start to the season, posting a 3.41 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) while being on pace for career highs in both strikeout rate (30.1%) and swinging-strike rate (13.2%).

Punching out batters that way makes today's matchup with the Baltimore Orioles, whose 23.0% strikeout rate against righties is the eighth-highest in the majors, an especially strong one in fantasy. numberFire's models also project him for Friday's highest strikeout total.

The Tampa Bay Rays are big -183 favorites, while the Orioles have a 3.86 implied total, giving Archer a nice floor to go with that elite ceiling.
