Charlie Blackmon, OF, Colorado Rockies

Price: $4,900

One might think I'd eventually get tired of writing about Charlie Blackmon, but here we are.

The Colorado Rockies kick off another home series tonight against the Milwaukee Brewers. And with righty Matt Garza taking the mound for the Brewers, Colorado's 6.74 implied total is Friday's highest mark.

Garza has an ugly 5.12 SIERA through 18 games, which is on pace to be a career worst, and he hasn't had a lot of fun facing left-handed hitters (6.13 xFIP).

Blackmon's numbers need little introduction at this point, but he has a big 39.3% hard-hit rate and 39.7% fly-ball rate against right-handed pitching. In 175 plate appearances at home against righties, he has posted a massive .527 wOBA and .450 ISO.
