5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 6/8/17
Matt Adams has tagged righties for a 39.4% hard-hit rate this season, and he draws a plus matchup against Philadelphia's Ben Lively tonight. Who else should you target for big-time fantasy value on Thursday?

Willson Contreras, C, Chicago Cubs

FanDuel Price: $2,500

The Chicago Cubs are another offense with a strong matchup tonight, taking on Colorado Rockies righty Tyler Chatwood, who has posted a 4.47 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) in 2017, bringing his career-average to 4.62. His 11.8% walk rate is also on pace to be a career-high.

Catcher is pretty thin on tonight's main slate, and hitting in a Cubs' lineup that has a solid 4.71 implied total, Willson Contreras, despite his shaky production, makes for an interesting way to punt the position, bringing a decent 31.0% hard-hit and 12.7% soft-hit rate into this plus matchup.
