Manny Machado, SS, Los Angeles Dodgers

Price: $4,600

Tonight's matchup between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Colorado Rockies has a lower over/under (9.0) than we usually see in a Coors Field matchup, but the Dodgers' 4.82 implied total is still a solid mark as they take on Rockies righty Jon Gray.

Gray has not been nearly as bad as his 4.70 ERA would have you believe this season, with a pretty stellar 3.51 SIERA to his name. Coors Field is Coors Field though, and he remains plenty vulnerable at home, allowing a .317 wOBA in the thin Denver air.

Manny Machado is a guy whose batted-ball numbers are perfect for Coors. He has made 429 plate appearances against righties this year, turning in a 38.2% hard-hit and 43.7% fly-ball rate. That has translated to a .382 wOBA and .245 ISO, and with the way balls carry in the thin air, he's got big upside tonight.
