Robbie Erlin, SP, San Diego Padres

FanDuel Price: $5,700

The San Diego Padres head to Denver for a National League West tilt with the Colorado Rockies. For Robbie Erlin, this could spell all kinds of trouble.

Starting in Coors Field is challenging enough, but a quick peek shows the Rox are actually second-best offense in baseball against left-handed pitching in terms of weighted on-base average (wOBA) this year with a .344 mark. They are also the 10th-hardest team to strike out with a 21.3% strikeout rate.

Fire in a slate-best implied team total, and Erlin is one to shy away from.
