Addison Russell, SS, Chicago Cubs

Price: $2,400

The Chicago Cubs' offense is in a great spot tonight, taking on Colorado Rockies southpaw Kyle Freeland. Over 38 games in his first two Major League seasons, Freeland has managed a 4.86 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA). The weather is also likely to make this a tough spot for pitchers, with some strong winds blowing out at Wrigley Field.

The Cubs own the day's highest implied total at 5.41 runs.

Addison Russell doesn't do anything special from the dish, but he has been serviceable against southpaws recently, with a .340 wOBA and .171 isolated slugging (ISO) since the start of the 2017 season. He's a nice cheap way to get exposure to the Cubs.
