5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 7/28/17
Brian McCann, C, Houston Astros
FanDuel Price: $2,800
The Houston Astros have the fifth-highest implied total (5.20) on Friday's big 15-game slate, and they offer a ton of fantasy appeal against Detroit Tigers right-hander Jordan Zimmermann.
Zimmermann is the current owner of a 5.11 SIERA (after posting what was then a career-worst 4.81 in 2016) while allowing an especially big .386 wOBA to left-handed bats.
Brian McCann hasn't been anything special from the dish this year, but he's sporting a solid 35.4% hard-hit rate against right-handed pitching. numberFire's models have him as a top-10 point-per-dollar value tonight.
