Manny Machado, 3B, Los Angeles Dodgers

FanDuel Price: $4,500

Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Manny Machado is wrapping up another fine season, and the Boys in Blue will need him to keep hitting if they want to hold off the Colorado Rockies in the NL West.

Unfortunately for Machado, he's seen a dip in production in 2018, slipping from a .399 weighted on-base average (wOBA) in the first half down to a .346 mark in the second half.

Since his trade to LA, he has really struggled against right-handed pitching, recording a .308 wOBA and 22.8% strikeout rate over 180 plate appearances.

Facing Arizona Diamondbacks ace Zack Greinke, who's allowed only a .260 wOBA and 2.52 ERA in 100 home innings this year, Machado could be in for a rough night.
