High Salary OF

George Springer-Houston Astros (5,000): Springer lost his eight-game hitting streak yesterday, but he did still have a walk, RBI, and run scored for six fantasy points. He had five multi-hit games in his previous six games resulting in at least 10 fantasy points in each of those games including a 32 fantasy-point outburst last Tuesday against the D-Backs. Springer is hitting .406 over the last week and is 4-13 in his career against tonight’s opposing starter Colby Lewis. 

Charlie Blackmon-Colorado Rockies (4,300): Blackmon is also is in a good matchup tonight as he and the Rockies head to LA.  Blackmon is 4-11 in his career with a  double and a homer against Dodgers’ starter Mike Bolsinger and he has gone 5-16 (.313) in his last five games including a nice 2-4 day yesterday which included a stolen base.  Blackmon has double-digit fantasy points in seven of his last ten games after posting 17 yesterday.∗∗

Nomar Mazara-Texas Rangers (4,300): The Rangers’ infusion of youth includes Mazara who is having a strong rookie season for them in RF.  Mazara enters tonight’s game hitting .304 with ten homers and 27 RBI.  He has been especially good against RHP and at home both of which are the case tonight as he and the Rangers take on Mike Fiers and the Astros in a Lone Star state showdown. Mazurka has exactly 18 fantasy points in three of his last six games but has only totaled six in his other three.  He’s very much a boom-or-bust producer, but a solid option at just over 4K. 

Nelson Cruz-Seattle Mariners (4,100): If you’re going to spend over 4K on an OF tonight, check out Nelson Cruz who has homered in three of his last four games and has over 22 fantasy points in four of his last six. He takes on Trevor Bauer and the Indians tonight at SafeCo Field, and he is 5-7 in his career against Bauer including a double and a home run.∗∗
