High Value Outfielders

Andrew Benintendi $3200 – Benintendi is only batting .233 with one home run but has batted in six runs while scoring three times. He gets a favorable matchup against the Pirates righty Chad Kuhl, who is allowing left handed batters to slash .364 against him. The Red Sox have the highest implied run total on the slate, so expect Benintendi to make his rounds on the bases. ***

Tyler Collins $2200 – The opposing pitcher, Twins righty Phil Hughes, has allowed left handed batters to hit .405 against him. Collins is batting .353 overall with one home run, two runs batted in, and three scores. The Tigers have the fifth highest implied run total on the slate and are expected to score plenty of runs off of Phil Hughes and the Twins today. With plenty to go around, Collins will be guaranteed to get his share. ****

Next: One prospect each MLB team should call up

Each one of my picks is ranked on a scale of one to five stars. The more stars that a pick receives represents the level of confidence I have in that selection. Players that receive five stars (*****) should be considered must start players, where as players with one star (*) are options that should only be considered in low price ranges.
