Kris Bryant, 3B, Chicago Cubs

Price: $5,100

Last night's game was rained out, but we once again get the Colorado Rockies and Chicago Cubs in what should be an excellent game for fantasy purposes at Coors Field in the second half of a doubleheader.

Kyle Freeland will take the mound for the Rockies, and the southpaw has struggled to the tune of a 4.43 SIERA through his first six major league starts after posting a 3.91 ERA in 12 Triple-A games and a 3.87 mark in 14 Double-A games last year. He has an especially shaky 4.77 xFIP against right-handed hitters, and this is a terrific spot for Kris Bryant.

Bryant is sporting a career-best .403 wOBA through 150 plate appearances. Throughout his young career, he's posted a .414 wOBA, 39.4% hard-hit rate and 45.5% fly-ball rate against left-handed pitching. So, drawing a matchup like this at Coors gives him massive upside.
