Khris Davis, OF, Oakland Athletics

Price: $4,200

Khris Davis is the only hitter in the Majors with more home runs than Martinez, having knocked 41 to go with 85 runs and 110 RBI. His overall production isn't nearly as good as Martinez', with a .365 wOBA and .292 ISO on the year, but his nightly upside is still through the roof.

That's certainly the case tonight as he goes up against righty Dylan Bundy and the Baltimore Orioles.

Bundy's 4.04 SIERA isn't nearly as bad as his 5.58 ERA would suggest, but the contact he's giving up is mouth-watering for a home run hitter like Davis. He has been tagged for a 36.2% hard-hit and 14.6% soft-hit rate, with a 47.0% fly-ball rate. That contact has him giving up 2.22 home runs per nine innings -- the most among qualifying pitchers by a huge margin (the next-highest sitting at 1.69).

If Bundy gets shelled early (Oakland's 5.21 implied total suggests that's a real possibility), things don't get any worse for Davis either. The Orioles' relievers have allowed the 12th-most home runs per 9 in the Majors, while their 4.66 group xFIP is the MLB's worst mark.
