Mike Napoli, 1B, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $2,900

Mike Napoli hasn't been particularly productive in 2017, but he's managing a 39.0% hard-hit rate while only posting a .230 BABIP (compared to his .301 career average and a .296 mark in 2016).

If he keeps making good contact, his production will likely trend up moving forward, and he has been hitting the ball especially well recently, ranking top-20 in both average batted-ball distance and average exit velocity among hitters with at least 25 batted balls in July.

Also benefitting from that plus matchup with Urena, Napoli is a nice budget-friendly way to get exposure to that Rangers offense.
