4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 5/22/17
Nick Castellanos and the Detroit Tigers have a tougher matchup than it may appear against the Houston Astros tonight.

Aaron Altherr, OF, Philadelphia Phillies

FanDuel Price: $3,800

Speaking of high salaries, we're still waiting for the price drop on Aaron Altherr.

Similar to Starlin Castro, Altherr has an impressive .418 wOBA and .308 isolated power (ISO). But he has some lucky looking numbers in his .348 BABIP and 32.0% home-run-to-fly-ball rate (HR/FB), neither of which should be expected to hold up.

He has a 36.4% hard-hit rate on the year, but it's been just 28.1% the last 14 days, and 22.2% in the last seven.

Regression appears to be slowly taking form, and it's best to wait until the price matches his actual skill level.
