4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 4/25/17
Jake Lamb, 3B, Arizona Diamondbacks
FanDuel Price: $4,000
The Arizona Diamondbacks are taking on Clayton Richard, and they have the highest implied team total outside of Coors.
But that doesn't mean every single Diamondback is in play. Richard may not be an intimidating foe, but he gets a lot of ground balls and limits hard contact. Across his entire career, he's limited lefties to a 20.8% hard-hit rate, 24.6% soft-hit rate, and 63.9% ground-ball rate.
None of that bodes well for Jake Lamb, who has historically struggled with southpaw pitchers. He's also quite expensive, making him hard to use even as part of a contrarian tournament stack.
If you opt for Diamondbacks, stick with the right side.
