Charlie Blackmon, OF, Colorado Rockies

Price: $4,900

Once again drawing a matchup with a righty at Coors, Charlie Blackmon continues to be a top fantasy option.

The Colorado Rockies' 6.15 implied total is more than half a run higher than any other team's tonight, and while San Diego Padres righty Dinelson Lamet has looked solid through 8 major league games, left-handed bats have teed off on him to the tune of a 39.7% hard-hit rate, 11.1% soft-hit rate and 50.8% fly-ball rate -- marks that become especially concerning at Coors Field.

Blackmon has been excellent against righties this season, with a .404 wOBA on a 37.1% hard-hit rate and 42.4% fly-ball rate, and if we narrow the splits to his 120 plate appearances against righties at home in 2017, that wOBA jumps to an absurd .512 with a .427 isolated slugging.
