Yoenis Cespedes, OF, New York Mets

FanDuel Price: $3,500

We all know Yoenis Cespedes can launch bombs with the best of them, but Mike Leake takes the wind out of his sails tonight.

Sure, Leake doesn't get many punchouts (16.4% rate), but he keeps the ball on the ground at a high clip (56.2%), which puts a damper on the long ball potential -- he's averaging just a 0.94 HR/9 this season. The New York Mets also have a middle-of-the-road 4.32 implied team total.

With Cespedes lacking the platoon advantage -- he has just a .320 wOBA against righties this year -- there are better bets for homers tonight.
