Alex Gordon, OF, Kansas City Royals

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Kyle Gibson will be on the mound for the Minnesota Twins, and the Kansas City Royals have a fairly appealing 4.53 implied total.

Gibson has an ugly 5.31 ERA and career-worst 4.75 SIERA on the season. He has struggled throughout his career with a 4.62 ERA and 4.34 SIERA. He has given up a massive .389 wOBA on a 33.0% hard-hit rate to left-handed hitters this year,

Alex Gordon is having a down year, but the struggles are coming on a .291 BABIP (well below his .318 career average). His BABIP is that low despite his 37.8% hard-hit rate being a career-high and his 15.9% soft-hit rate being below his career average, leaving plenty of room for optimism that his numbers will return to form.

Gordon is a career .271/.354/.437 hitter with a .345 wOBA against righties. With a great matchup tonight, he should be able to find some success.
