Kevin Kiermaier, OF, Tampa Bay Rays

FanDuel Price: $2,900

R.A. Dickey will be starting for Toronto tonight. Dickey is sporting a 4.49 ERA (his worst since 2009) and a 4.72 SIERA (his worst since 2008) on the season, and his best baseball certainly seems to be behind him.

He has especially struggled with left-handed hitting this year, with an ugly 5.21 xFIP and allowing a .351 wOBA, making this a very appealing matchup for Kevin Kiermaier.

Kiermaier has slashed .261/.317/.451 with a .331 wOBA and .190 ISO against right-handed pitching and is sporting a career-high 33.6% hard-hit rate with only an 18.3% strikeout rate. He is likely to give Dickey a hard time tonight.
