5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 4/26/17
Greg Bird's batted-ball numbers are incredibly appealing, especially his his salary. Who else should you target for big-time fantasy value on Wednesday?

Jonathan Lucroy, C, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $2,800

The Minnesota Twins will be starting left-hander Hector Santiago on the road at the hitter-friendly Globe Life Park tonight. That means big things for the Texas Rangers bats as Santiago has opened the season with a 4.18 SIERA after finishing 2016 with a 5.07 SIERA. He also has only a 4.47 SIERA over his career.

Jonathan Lucroy has been excellent against southpaws over his career, owning a .361 wOBA with a 37.4% hard-hit rate. He made especially good contact against lefties last season, finishing with a 43.2% hard-hit rate.

Even if he's hitting low in the order again on Wednesday, this matchup gives him no shortage of upside.
