Luis Severino, P, New York Yankees

Price: $9,200

The Chicago White Sox have been brutal against right-handed pitching this season, ranking among the five worst squads with an 83 wRC+ while their 22.7% strikeout rate is among the top 10. Having an uninspiring 3.96 implied total in a matchup against the New York Yankees also doesn't help them.

Luis Severino is fanning batters at the highest rate of his career (26.9%) while sporting an 11.4% swinging-strike rate, and he's forcing a 20.7% soft-hit rate to go along with a 56.1% ground-ball rate.

Among the 145 pitchers to have allowed at least 25 batted balls over the past 15 days, Severino has allowed the third-lowest average batted-ball distance. His matchup against the White Sox and stellar production combine to make him a top option on a day loaded with high-priced pitching options.
