5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 7/17/17
Jesus Aguilar has a 38.5% hard-hit rate against right-handed pitching this season, and he draws a plus matchup tonight against Chad Kuhl. Who else should you target for big-time fantasy value?

Evan Gattis, C, Hosuton Astros

FanDuel Price: $2,700

Evan Gattis has managed a solid .349 wOBA through 220 plate appearances this season. While his production has been very weak against southpaws, that has come with a .191 BABIP despite a decent 32.0% hard-hit rate, and his production off lefties will likely pick up over the remainder of the season.

Tonight's matchup is also a good place for that to start. The Houston Astros have a nice 5.29 implied total in a matchup with Seattle Mariners left-hander Ariel Miranda, who has posted a 4.98 SIERA this season with a 5.52 xFIP against right-handed bats.
