Nelson Cruz, OF, Seattle Mariners

FanDuel Price: $3,900

Our stacking friend Andrew Cashner takes his talents to Seattle tonight, but with Safeco Field not being a notable hitter's venue, the Mariners may play second-fiddle to the other top-notch matchups on the board.

Cashner continues to be the gift that keeps on giving, however, with just a 5.22 SIERA, 15.2% strikeout rate, and 9.6% walk rate to show for his efforts this season. The righty is susceptible to both sides of the plate, and is allowing a .365 xwOBA to the right side, which sets up nicely for Nelson Cruz.

Although Cruz is more known for his prowess against southpaws, he's doing just fine against righties as well, posting a 39.8% hard-hit rate, .418 xwOBA, and .254 ISO this year. The Mariners make for an enticing lower-owned stack tonight.
