Gary Sanchez, C, New York Yankees

FanDuel Price: $3,200

The New York Yankees have the highest implied total of the slate (5.53) against Marco Estrada, so they figure to be one of the most popular stacks on Friday. And it's with good reason, as Estrada is allowing a whopping 56.4% fly-ball rate with a 5.41 SIERA and 16.9% strikeout rate, which could be a disaster for him at Yankee Stadium.

We know practically anyone in the Yankees' lineup could knock one out tonight, and that includes Gary Sanchez, who is unlikely to see particularly high ownership given his low spot in the batting order (seventh) and his underwhelming season at the plate. However, he's also the second-cheapest bat in the lineup, and in spite of his struggles, he's still managed a .225 ISO for the season. A .190 BABIP and .365 xwOBA still suggest he hasn't been quite as bad as the results, and he did homer earlier this week.
