Mitch Moreland, 1B, Boston Red Sox

Price: $3,000

Toronto's Aaron Sanchez has bounced back some from the horrendous 5.62 SIERA he posted in his injury-plagued 2017 season, but his 5.04 this year is still a poor mark. That comes while allowing career-highs in both walk rate (12.1%) and hard-hit rate (34.8%). The Boston Red Sox have Wednesday's highest implied total (5.38) in this matchup.

Mitch Moreland has not been a high-floor hitter this year, but he has plenty of power, especially against right-handed pitching. In that split he has turned in a .339 wOBA and .218 ISO on the year, which has come on a 36.7% hard-hit, 12.7% soft-hit and 39.5% fly-ball rate.

Being surrounded by such a high-powered offense also gives his value a big boost, increasing his opportunity to score runs and tally RBI.
