Terrible lineup, but value in cheap bats against a below average pitcher
The Tigers lineup is atrocious. Nick Castellanos (111 wRC+, .209 ISO) is the only batter in the lineup above a 90 wRC+ against RHP over the last calendar year. Niko Goodrom (90 wRC+, .214 ISO) is the only other batter above an 81 wRC+ or .141 ISO. However, they are cheap (aside from Castellanos) and on the top quarter of the board with 4.84 implied runs tonight. That's because batters from either side of the plate exceed a .360 wOBA and xwOBA against Bartolo Colon since last season. Jacoby Jones (67 wRC+, .141 ISO) is in the leadoff spot for $3.2K or less and might make some sense if paying for deGrom or Sale.
