4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 6/12/17
Zack Cozart has put up impressive numbers this season, but he remains overpriced on FanDuel. Who else should you avoid in DFS on Monday?

Joey Gallo, 1B, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $3,700

Despite his immense power (17 homers), Joey Gallo continues to be a tough sell at his cost. After a couple starts out of the fifth spot last week, he quickly returned to batting seventh or eighth, which is an extremely poor value for a bat putting you back $3,700.

The Texas Rangers get a decent matchup against Joe Musgrove, but it's hardly the strongest on the board at just a 4.16 implied team total.

Gallo is also striking out a woeful 37.4% of the time, the third-worst among qualified starters. Even in GPPs, where riskier plays are part of the deal, you're probably better off waiting for a price drop or move up the lineup before taking the plunge again.
