Kipnis is one of the hottest hitters in baseball right now as he has a .586 batting average during the past seven days. He has multiple hits in five out of the past six games, while producing at least three hits in four of those games. Oh yea, he also crushes right handed pitchers.
Dozier is in the midst of a seven game hit streak and has belted three home runs during this hitting streak.
Guerrero is a great low-tier option as long as he starts
Gordon has seven hits in the past two games and is hitting .433 with a .457 OBP this season. No big deal.

Frazier is five for 10 with 2 home runs vs Ryan Vogelsong. It also helps that he has swatted two home runs and stole two bases in the past four games.
Bryant continues to mash as he has produced three home runs and 8 RBIs during his current five game hitting streak. He has pulverized right handed pitchers this season by posting a .417 wOBA and an OPS of .949 vs them this season.
Machado should have a great game as he hits a lot better vs right handed pitchers and Shoemaker has struggled this season

Brantley is on fire right now as he has scored or driven in a run in 13 out of the past 14 games.
Smith is usually a good option vs right-handed pitchers and today is no different, especially since he’s six for 10 lifetime vs Porcello with three of those hits going for extra bases
Harper continues to rake as he has produced at least one run, RBI, or stolen base in nine straight games. He has an insane .508 wOBA/ 1.172 OPS vs right handed pitchers this season.
“Fu Man” Choo went hitless on Friday night, which ended his five game multi-hit streak. Expect him to bounce back on Saturday.
Peralta loves hitting vs right handed pitchers as he has 12 extra base hits in 85 at-bats vs them this season. Peralta is going to feast on Jerome Williams, who is a terrible pitcher.
