Eric Thames, 1B, Milwaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $3,200

Between a game at Coors Field, a hot night in Kansas City, and the always popular New York Yankees, the Milwaukee Brewers may fly under the radar in a good spot against Trevor Williams. Williams is showing a 4.84 SIERA this year, and he has a poor a 9.0% strikeout rate and .353 expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA) against lefty bats.

Eric Thames comes in cheap for a guy who's posted a hefty 50.0% hard-hit rate, .400 wOBA, and .385 isolated power (ISO) through 90 plate appearances this season. He also owns a 142 wRC+ against right-handed pitching dating back to 2017. Thames may not be batting leadoff on Monday, but he'll still have plenty of opportunities to do damage as the cleanup man.
