Jose Ramirez, 3B, Cleveland Indians

Price: $5,000

Jose Ramirez turned in a career year from the dish in 2017, posting a .396 wOBA and .265 ISO. He has outdone himself so far in 2018, improving his wOBA to a .411 and his ISO to a .298.

The switch-hitter has been particularly great against right-handed pitching this year, with a .443 wOBA and .342 ISO in the split on a 39.1% hard-hit rate and 45.5% fly-ball rate.

The Cleveland offense is in a great spot tonight, taking on Cincinnati Reds righty Anthony DeSclafani, and their 5.39 implied total ranks second on the main slate.

DeSclafani posted a 4.07 SIERA in his last full MLB season in 2016, and he had a 4.08 SIERA in 2015. He has been even worse over six games this year, recording a 4.21 SIERA while allowing a huge 44.1% hard-hit rate and forcing a mere 13.7% hard-hit rate.
