3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 4/12/19
Mookie Betts, OF, Boston Red Sox
Price: $4,800
One of the most exciting things about the Red Sox in daily fantasy is that even though their two most productive players hit from the same side of the plate, the opposing pitcher's handedness doesn't matter too much.
Righty-versus-righty matchups have been no problem for Mookie Betts, who has a .431 wOBA and .276 ISO on a 44.6% hard-hit and 10.7% soft-hit rate in that split since the start of the 2018 season.
Like Martinez, Betts has a ton of upside in the way of RBI and runs scored tonight, as he showed us last year when he scored the most runs (129) in the majors. He also swiped 30 bags, and while he hasn't stolen a base yet in 2019, that potential gives him some especially strong upside.
It's an expensive proposition, but if you can find a way to fit both Betts and Martinez in your lineup, you'll give your lineup a massive ceiling behind Boston's six-run total.
