STARTING PITCHER
Zack Godley, ARI vs. SEA ($38): Godley's 4.44 ERA doesn't look great, but he does have a 3.75 FIP. On top of that, though he's actually been better at home, posting a 3.33 ERA in his own ballpark. Meanwhile, since the All-Star break the Mariners are in the bottom five in runs scored.
C.C. Sabathia, NYY at BAL ($37): Sabathia and his 3.32 ERA are coming off the disabled list to start this game. He was pitching well before that, as in his prior 12 starts he posted a 3.01 ERA. This is a great matchup for the big man to ease himself back into action with. The Orioles are 28th in runs scored and have a .298 OBP as a team.

CATCHER
Yasmani Grandal, LAD vs. SD ($13): Grandal tends to perform well at home, as he's been consistently better in Dodgers Stadium the last few years. That includes having a .946 OPS at home in 2018. He isn't as good against lefties as righties, but he might be able to manage against a lefty like Clayton Richard. Richard has a 5.11 ERA and a 6.28 ERA on the road.
FIRST BASE
Wilmer Flores, NYM vs. WAS ($17): Flores' batting average has gone up every season, and he has a .278 batting average this year. He also has hit at least 16 homers in his last three campaigns, and has 11 this year in 108 games. Rookie pitcher Jefry Rodriguez has struggled in his limited action, as he has a 5.66 FIP and has allowed 1.52 homers per nine innings.
SECOND BASE
Jose Altuve, HOU at LAA ($14): Altuve is back in action after an injury absence, and he's not going to be available for this cheap much longer. This is a player with a career slash line of .317/.365/.454, after all, and he's also stolen at least 30 bases in every full season he's played. Angels pitcher Andrew Heaney has scuffled recently, as he has a 4.99 ERA over his last 10 starts.
THIRD BASE
Miguel Andujar, NYY at BAL ($21): Andujar has already shown a ton of power in his young career. In 115 games this season he has 20 home runs and a .523 slugging percentage. In his first year with the Orioles, Alex Cobb has a 5.09 ERA and has allowed 1.29 homers per nine innings. There's a good chance the Yankees' third baseman will be able to put his power on display.
SHORTSTOP
Marcus Semien, OAK at MIN ($17): Semien's bat has been hot for a while, as over his last 30 games he has a .299/.374/.453 slash line. He's also hit 10 homers and stolen 13 bases, and he's had double-digit home runs and stolen bases in each of his last four seasons. Jake Odorizzi has a career 4.24 FIP and has given up 1.28 homers per nine innings. This year, he has a 4.94 ERA at home.
OUTFIELD
Jose Martinez, STL at COL ($18): Martinez has been a good hitter his entire career, as his .310/.374/.488 slash line indicates. He's also been a great hitter recently, as he's posted a 10.014 OPS over his last 14 games. Antonio Senzatela has a career 4.62 ERA, even though he's pitched most of his career out of the bullpen. Starting is a different beast, especially in Coors Field.
A.J. Pollock, ARI vs. SEA ($16): Pollock got off to a slow start after his return from his latest injury, but over his last 30 games he has a .275/.328/.459 slash line. Overall, in 80 games he has 16 homers and 10 stolen bases, and like a lot of Diamondbacks he performs better at home (.911 OPS). Ersamo Ramirez has a woeful 5.49 ERA, but somehow his FIP is an even worse 7.67.
Stephen Piscotty, OAK at MIN ($16): When you get Piscotty away from the spacious confines of Oakland's stadium his offense really picks up. He has a .862 OPS in away games this year, and he had a .821 OPS in such contests last season. Jake Odorizzi probably wishes he was on the road, as he has a 4.94 ERA in home games.
