This article is part of our FantasyDraft MLB series.
Pitcher
Dylan Bundy, BAL vs SEA ($17,200) – Bundy has pitched well over his past four outings, racking up four quality starts and 33 strikeouts. The Mariners aren't a great matchup, but they carry a wOBA in the bottom half of the majors against righties this season.
Ervin Santana, MIN vs CHW ($19,600) -- Santana isn't the most exciting pick on the board, but he is pretty safe. Santana has recorded at least six strikeouts in his past five starts and hasn't allowed more than three runs in any of those. His upside isn't high, but he was impressive against the White Sox in his most recent start, going seven innings while recording eight strikeouts and giving up just one run. The White Sox enter with the third lowest wOBA against righties in the majors.
INFIELD
Daniel Murphy, WAS vs MIA ($8,800) – The Nationals are well equipped to lay the hurt on Vance Worley, and Murphy appears to be the best value on the board. Murphy's wOBA of .380 is right in the ballpark of some other high-end Nationals, but he comes at a lower price.
Joey Votto, CIN vs NYM ($10,000) – Chris Flexen finally picked up his first quality start in six tries in his most recent outing, but it wasn't a masterful performance as he allowed 10 baserunners in six innings and two runs. Flexen enters with a 5.79 ERA on the season, while Votto has a .432 wOBA against righties this season, which is top-5 in the majors.
Jorge Polanco, MIN vs CHW ($8,400) – There are several good options in the Twins' lineup, such as Byron Buxton, who has been on a tear for weeks now and Eddie Rosario, who leads the Twins in wOBA against righties this season, but I like Polanco in this spot given how hot he's been recently.
OUTFIELD
Mike Trout, LAA vs OAK ($10,200) – After a five-game hitless stretch, the Angels decided it would be best to give Trout a day off. The matchup against Chris Smith should help, and Trout enters with a .458 wOBA against righties this season, which is tops in the majors.
Andrew Benintendi, BOS at TOR ($9,200) – Tom Koehler resembled a major league starter in his most recent outing against the Rays, but it did little to lower a brutal 7.42 ERA. With Koehler on the mound, the Red Sox are in play for a stack, but the problem is, they aren't great against righties as a team. Benintendi is an exception though, as he enters with a .350 wOBA against right-handers.
Dexter Fowler, STL at MIL ($8,400) – Matt Garza is coming off a decent start where he allowed just one run in five innings, but over his past four, he's allowed 19 runs in 18 innings. The Cardinals have plenty of bats that can get to Garza, and one of them is Fowler, who has been productive since his return from the DL. Fowler enters with a .370 wOBA against righties, which is second on the Cardinals.
UTILITY
Trey Mancini, BAL vs SEA ($8,800) – The Orioles have been on a tear at the plate and it will be up to Erasmo Ramirez to slow them down. One Oriole in particular that's been hot lately is Mancini, who just keeps producing at a high level. Mancini enters with a .392 wOBA against righties this season, which leads the O's and is top-20 in the majors. Ramirez hasn't been terrible lately, so an O's stack isn't a given, but there's no reason to hold back on a guy as adept at hitting righties as Mancini.
Charlie Blackmon, COL vs DET ($11,200) – When the Rockies are facing a righty at home, Blackmon is almost a must-have. Blackmon enters with a .429 wOBA against righties this season, which is top-5 in the majors, and there's no reason to think he'll struggle with Michael Fulmer, who hasn't been sharp since the All-Star break.
