J.D. Martinez, OF, Arizona Diamondbacks

Price: $4,000

The Arizona Diamondbacks draw a great matchup tonight against Jordan Lyles and the San Diego Padres, and their 5.63 implied total is the day's highest mark.

Lyles has a 4.34 SIERA on the year (right in line with his career average), but he's allowing a career-high 36.0% hard-hit rate. That mark becomes especially concerning upon realizing he'll be toeing the slab at the hitter-friendly Chase Field.

This bodes well for J.D. Martinez, who has been raking this year. With 99 games played under his belt, he's on pace for career-best marks in wOBA (.406), ISO (.363), and hard-hit rate (47.0%). He offers elite upside in this matchup.
