Corey Dickerson, OF, Tampa Bay Rays

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Corey Dickerson missed a few games this week with a thumb injury but returned last night and should be in today's lineup.

The right-handed Michael Fulmer will be on the mound for the Tigers tonight. Fulmer's ERA this year is impressive on the surface but comes with a much less impressive 4.12 SIERA and a 30.9 percent hard-hit rate. He has also shown some major weakness against lefties, with a 5.07 xFIP. That's where Dickerson steps in.

Dickerson has destroyed right-handed pitching over his career, to the tune of a .292/.338/.557 slash, a .379 wOBA, and a .266 isolated slugging. He hasn't been quite that productive this season, but he still boasts a 34.8 percent hard-hit rate and .274 isolated slugging against righties on the year, and he should thrive in this matchup.
