Kole Calhoun, OF, Los Angeles Angels

FanDuel Price; $3,000

Tim Adleman's 3.68 ERA through the first six games of his career may not seem bad, but he has done that with an ugly 5.15 SIERA, 15.9% strikeout rate and 8.7% walk rate. He's allowing a 32.6% hard-hit rate with just a 12.0% soft-hit rate.

He makes for a great matchup to target in DFS. With an .834 OPS against left-handed hitters between his minor-league and major-league work this season, Adleman is an especially good matchup for lefties.

Kole Calhoun has done decent work against right-handed pitching over his career, slashing .269/.329/.439 with a .335 wOBA and 32.3% hard-hit rate. The Los Angeles Angels boast a tasty 5.05 implied total, and Calhoun has been hitting leadoff.
