5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/2/17
Kendrys Morales, 1B, Toronto Blue Jays
FanDuel Price: $2,900
There's a strong wind blowing out at hitter-friendly Yankee Stadium today, and tonight's matchup between the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays has the highest over/under on the slate at 9.0.
The Jays are sizable underdogs in this one, but their matchup isn't an especially daunting one against Masahiro Tanaka, who has posted a 4.25 SIERA through five starts this season.
Kendrys Morales hasn't hit well to start the season, but he's also sporting the one of the lowest batting average on balls in play (BABIP) marks of his career (.263) despite boasting a 41.3% hard-hit rate that is on pace to be a career high. The weak production numbers have his salary nice and low, and with the way he's been hitting the ball, he offers some big upside relative to his price tag.
