4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 8/22/16
Gary Sanchez has been on a roll and isn't likely to be slowed down by Cody Martin. Who else should you target for big-time fantasy value tonight?

Michael Bourn, OF, Arizona Diamondbacks

FanDuel Price: $2,800

The Arizona Diamondbacks have the highest implied total of the day at 5.00 as they host Mike Foltynewicz and the Atlanta Braves at the hitter-friendly Chase Field.

Foltynewicz is sporting a 4.34 SIERA on the season, which puts him above 4.30 for his third time in as many seasons in the Majors, while he owns a career 5.09 ERA.

Michael Bourn isn't exactly an impressive hitter, slashing a career .270/.337/.366 against right-handed pitching, but Foltynewicz has been awful against left-handed hitters over his career, with a .388 wOBA and 5.20 xFIP.

Playing in a hitter-friendly park, surrounded by a lineup that should generate some serious offense and facing down those splits from Foltynewicz, Bourn becomes a strong fantasy option despite his less-than-stellar numbers from the dish.
