4 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 7/5/17
Alex Wood has a 30.2% strikeout rate on the year, and draws a nice matchup at home against Arizona. What other high-priced players should be on your fantasy radar on Wednesday?

Alex Wood, P, Los Angeles Dodgers

Price: $9,400

Alex Wood has been nasty this season, ranking top-12 among pitchers with 70-plus innings pitched in all of SIERA (2.78), strikeout rate (30.2%) and swinging strike rate (13.1%).

He brings those numbers into a great matchup today, taking on an Arizona Diamondbacks team that has struggled with left-handed pitching this season, sitting tied for last in the majors with a 70 wRC+ while also sporting a top-10 strikeout rate (25.3%).

Playing at home in a pitcher-friendly park, Wood and the Los Angeles Dodgers are the day's second-biggest favorites (-217 moneyline), and the Diamondbacks' 3.29 implied total is Wednesday's lowest mark.
