Max Kepler, OF, Minnesota Twins

FanDuel Price: $3,200

Over 485 plate appearances, Max Kepler has surged in 2018, and his .207 ISO and 45.4% fly-ball rate has led him to 18 home runs. However, tonight may be a tall order to add to that long ball total against left-hander Sean Manaea.

Manaea has enjoyed a solid 2018 season, and where he has really shined is an impressive 23.4% hard-hit rate and 29.9% fly-ball rate against same-sided bats. It's no wonder that they've only recorded a .275 wOBA against him this year.

Kepler provides plenty of punch for the Minnesota Twins, but it may be a good night to avoid him.
