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?

Zack Cozart, SS, Cincinnati Reds

FanDuel Price: $3,800

Luis Perdomo may still have a revolting 5.47 ERA, but there's plenty of reason to think he's not the best pitcher to attack with the Cincinnati Reds.

His SIERA remains solid at 3.73, and he's still working an elite 66.3% ground-ball rate. Much of his problems have stemmed from a .327 BABIP and 20.6% home-run-to-fly-ball rate, both of which should regress over the long haul.

In particular, Zack Cozart is an unappealing play as the second-most expensive shortstop on the slate. Although he has a .417 wOBA, most of his success has come from an inflated .376 BABIP, and he has just a 24.6% hard-hit rate over the last 30 days. He's due for some major regression and isn't worth his current salary.
