FanDuel Price: $2,700
Billy Butler draws a good matchup today against Cincinnati Reds' pitcher John Lamb at the hitter-friendly Great American Ballpark.
Butler isn't having his best season by any means, but he has been hitting lefties very well, sporting a .318/.362/.500 slash against southpaws. That success shouldn't come as much of a surprise as he owns a career .378 wOBA and .198 ISO against lefties.
Lamb is having a really rough season. He has a 5.34 SIERA and only a 12.5% strikeout rate through seven starts, allowing a 38.4% hard-hit rate to right-handed hitters.
