Gary Sanchez, C, New York Yankees

FanDuel Price: $3,200

Following a couple nights off, we should see Gary Sanchez back in the lineup tonight, and this could very well be the lowest price we see him at all year.

But his brutal slump may still scare many off a golden opportunity to buy-low on a guy with a career .375 wOBA and .300 ISO versus left-handed pitching. Make no mistake, this has truly been a horrendous stretch for Sanchez, going 4-for-53 over his last 15 games with 0 home runs and 18 strikeouts. He's managed just an 11.4% hard-hit rate and .154 wOBA over that span. Ouch.

Still, in baseball of all sports, you never know when a cold streak will end, or the next hot streak will begin. Maybe this brief hiatus is exactly what Sanchez needs to bust out of this funk. At this price, it's definitely worth taking a chance to find out. And if you're really feeling it, go with a super-contrarian lineup of Snell and Sanchez with the hopes that a Sanchez bomb is the lone run for the team in pinstripes.
