The following Spotlight Hitters were selected by Awesemo.com’s Director of Content Josh Engleman.
Joey Gallo
FD: $3300
DK: $4000
Even though the implied total is relatively pedestrian, there’s a lot of value to be found on the Rangers. Joey Gallo looks to be the best of the bunch, with a matchup against Reynaldo Lopez and the White Sox. Lopez is extremely hitable, and if he makes a mistake against Gallo, it’s a big problem. I have Gallo with the second best shot at a homerun today.
Rafael Devers
FD: $3000
DK: $3500
You could make a case for a few Red Sox here, but today I’m focusing on Devers. He has the benefit of the LHH/RHP matchup against David Hess, who sports a projected 5.67 FIP from Steamer. To get a guy like Devers at his price point is a steal.
Brian Dozier
FD: $3700
DK: $4000
Dozier has been a popular play for the past week, and today will be no different. His price is simply too low for his talent and spot in the order. Junior Guerra is a guy that can miss bats, but he also has some trouble finding the plate. Dozier is in the best spot to grab an extra plate appearance, which is incredibly valuable. I expect him to be chalky.
Josh, hey buddy you have Dozier’s pricing incorrect. He is $4k on DK. Thanks for all the hard work.
