Jesse Winker, OF, Cincinnati Reds

Price: $2,300

Likely leading off for the Cincinnati Reds, Jesse Winker has shown a ton of promise against right-handed pitching in his young major league carer. He has made 200 plate appearances against righties, turning a 38.4% hard-hit and 11.6% soft-hit rate into a .378 wOBA and .170 ISO.

That positions him well today against Pirates righty Chad Kuhl.

Kuhl hasn't had a bad start to the season, but his 4.17 SIERA isn't anything special either, and when you factor in his 4.79 mark in 2017, he's nothing to be concerned about as a fantasy matchup. He has also had an especially tough time with left-handed bats this year, allowing a 4.56 xFIP on an exploitable 39.4% hard-hit rate.
