Mookie Betts, OF, Boston Red Sox

FanDuel Price: $4,400

Mookie Betts, a right-handed hitter, owns reverse splits, posting a .385 wOBA against righties. Whenever Boston is facing a right-handed starter, he's worth a look, especially when the Red Sox boast a crazy implied total.

Well, Boston will see New York Yankees righty Luis Severino tonight, and their implied total of 5.41 runs is the highest of the slate. For his part, Severino is allowing a .384 wOBA to right-handed hitters.

Things just keep getting better as this matchup will take place at hitter-friendly Fenway Park, which checks in second in home run factor. At home versus righties this year, Betts owns a .400 wOBA with a 35.9% hard-hit rate and 37.0% fly-ball rate. He's our top-ranked hitter for the main slate.
