5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/17/17
Ian Happ's salary is still barely above minimum salary tonight while the Cubs' offense is in a great spot with the wind blowing out in Wrigley. Who else should you target for big-time daily fantasy baseball value on Wednesday?

Jonathan Lucroy, C, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $2,700

Onto the other side of that Phillies/Rangers matchup, Texas' 5.49 implied total is the highest outside of that Wrigley Field game.

Zach Eflin posted a 5.41 SIERA in his 2016 rookie campaign, and his 4.56 to start 2017 isn't much better.

Jonathan Lucroy hasn't had a great start, but he's coming off a year in which he posted a .362 wOBA on a 35.4% hard-hit rate (the second-highest mark of his career). In a great matchup at a hitter-friendly park, his price tag makes him a strong value option at catcher -- a position that looks to be fairly thin on today's main slate.
