3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 6/1/17
Andrew Benintendi, OF, Boston Red Sox
FanDuel Price: $3,300
There's a good chance Andrew Benintendi takes a seat against lefty Wade Miley tonight, but if he cracks the lineup, he should probably be excluded from your Red Sox stacks.
After a fine April to start to the season (.375 wOBA), Benintendi has come crashing down in May (.258 wOBA). Over the last 14 days, he hasn't been helped by a woeful .250 BABIP, but he's scuffling with just a 25.0% hard-hit rate and 86.9 mph average exit velocity. He's 1-for-18 across his last five games.
Until Benintendi breaks out of his slump, he's best avoided, particularly against a southpaw.
