Danny Valencia, 3B, Oakland Athletics

FanDuel Price: $2,600

Danny Valencia is coming off of a huge three-home-run, five-RBI performance and once again offers great value tonight.

While he is performing above a sustainable level recently, his career numbers against lefties are still excellent: a .378 wOBA, .182 ISO, and 13.6 percent strikeout rate.

He draws a favorable matchup against Derek Holland, who has a 5.23 SIERA and 13.1 percent strikeout rate on the season, following up a similarly unimpressive 2015 in which he posted a 4.43 SIERA and 16.7 percent strikeout rate. Holland has allowed a career .338 wOBA with a 4.20 xFIP against right-handed hitters, and Valencia should have no trouble producing tonight.
