Anthony Rizzo, 1B, Chicago Cubs

FanDuel Price: $5,100

He didn’t come through Tuesday as a recommended play, but everything that made Anthony Rizzo a guy to target yesterday also applies today.

The Cubs first baseman has punked right-handed pitching this season, destroying righties to the tune of a .428 wOBA with a .310 ISO and 14.0% walk rate.

While James Shields bucked the odds by throwing 7 2/3 innings of scoreless ball Tuesday, the White Sox are really pressing their luck by starting fellow righty Anthony Ranaudo tonight. This will be Ranaudo’s debut with the White Sox, but he’s been bad throughout his brief career, sporting a 6.03 SIERA, 10.6% strikeout rate, and 12.1% walk rate.

The Cubs figure to dominate ownership tonight, and with the way their big bats are priced, a Cubs stack will be hard to come by. It may be worth pivoting off them in tournaments, but if you’re willing to fork over the cash, Rizzo, our top-ranked hitter, could be in for a huge day.
