Joc Pederson, OF, Los Angeles Dodgers

Price: $2,800

Righty Tyler Chatwood is taking the mound for the Chicago Cubs tonight, which really opens the door for the Los Angeles Dodgers' offense.

Since returning from Tommy John surgery, Chatwood has yet to finish a season with a skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) better than 4.60, posting a 4.62 in 2016 and a 4.78 in 2017. Things have been even worse for him this year as he has posted an egregious 19.9% walk rate while the only thing keeping his 5.93 SIERA from sitting as the second-worst mark among starting pitchers is that he hasn't made it through enough innings to qualify.

Joc Pederson is having a career year at the dish, turning his 38.8% hard-hit rate into a .373 wOBA and .270 ISO, both career-highs. He shouldn't have much trouble with Chatwood tonight.
