Kyle Schwarber, OF, Chicago Cubs

Price: $3,400

Kyle Schwarber is a guy with some pretty extreme platoon splits. He's not someone you want to target against southpaws, but he has some serious upside tonight against Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jimmy Nelson.

Nelson has looked good through two starts this season. However, it's a pretty small sample size, and he's coming off of a brutal 2016 campaign that saw him post a 4.92 SIERA through 32 starts.

He had an especially bad 5.37 xFIP against left-handed hitters, allowing a .340 wOBA on a 36.6% hard-hit rate. Schwarber owns a career .387 wOBA, .249 isolated slugging and 39.9% hard-hit rate against right-handed pitchers, so he's in play anytime the Chicago Cubs see a righty.
