Joey Votto, 1B, Cincinnati Reds

Price: $4,000

With only a 4.05 implied total, Cincinnati Reds' offense as a whole doesn't offer a ton of fantasy appeal tonight, but Joey Votto stands out as a strong option.

Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Chad Kuhl has a shaky 4.87 SIERA on the season, and the .382 wOBA and 36.6% hard-hit rate he has allowed to left-handed sticks leaves the door wide open for a hitter as strong as Votto.

Votto has .414 wOBA and .255 ISO against right-handed pitching -- coming on a 36.3% hard-hit rate, 12.1% soft-hit rate and 39.2% fly-ball rate -- and offers elite upside in this one.
