Ryan Braun, 1B, Milwaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $3,300

Jon Lester has had a stellar career, but is he a pitcher to fear anymore? He showed signs of decline last season, and with his velocity continuing to move in the wrong direction, it may be worth targeting him on a small slate like tonight's. Against right-handed hitters in 2017, Lester allowed a .344 wOBA and had a average 20.6% strikeout rate.

The masses will likely flock to all three Yankees outfielders, but Ryan Braun can still bring it against lefties, putting up a 47.0% hard-hit rate while only striking out 9.3% of the time in the split last season. Braun makes for a good pairing with punt play Hernan Perez ($2,000) if Perez is batting high in the order.
