Carlos Santana, 1B, Philadelphia Phillies

FanDuel Price: $3,300

Alex Cobb is in the midst of a forgettable season (6.75 ERA), but on a slate littered with elite hitting matchups, the Philadelphia Phillies may be low-owned tonight. Yet, Cobb has a poor 14.6% strikeout rate and is giving up 1.69 home runs per nine innings.

Left-handed batters are enjoying a .380 expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA) against Cobb, so Carlos Santana is an excellent option to take advantage. Against righties, Santana is posting a .398 xwOBA and .215 isolated power (ISO) with a 37.6% hard-hit rate and 49.4% fly-ball rate. He's at a very appealing price point as the cleanup man and will have a solid shot at a dinger in Citizens Bank Park.
