Long Ball Targets

Kris Bryant FD 4100 DK 4800
Opponent - MIA (Chen) Park - @MIA
FD - 11.26 DK - 8.72

Kris Bryant and his .388 wOBA will be going up against southpaw Wei-Yin Chen. Chen has already allowed 14 homers to right-handed bats on the year, so I guess you could say this was an obvious pick for me. Bryant will be playing at spacious Marlins Park today, but he's got plenty of power (.329 ISO vs. lefties) to put one in the stands. This was the formula my crystal ball presented me with today:

Kris Bryant (.329 ISO) + Wei-Yin Chen (14 homers to righties) + 39.4 FB% + 37.2% hard contact rate = Kris Bryant dinger!

Matt Kemp FD 3700 DK 4900
Opponent - CIN (Lamb) Park - @CIN
FD - 11.75 DK - 9.2

Everyone has forgotten about Matt Kemp ever since he left L.A. and moved to San Diego, but boy is he devouring lefties. He is coming into this contest with a .447 wOBA, .373 ISO and 1.098 OPS vs. lefties. He is just killing them, and I expect tonight to be no different going up against John Lamb. Lamb owns a 4.75 ERA and 5.17 FIP. He has not had it go his way this season, which is why I will go ahead and roster Kemp. Plus, he will be leaving spacious Petco Park to head to hitter-friendly Great American Ballpark.

So yeah, baseball season! And we've got some goodies you can take with you. At the end of the post, we have our MLB eBook that you really ought to check out before setting even a single daily fantasy MLB lineup. It's free, below.
