Daily Fantasy Baseball: Batted-Ball Positive Regression Candidates for Week 18
Cody Bellinger's results have cooled off, but he's still hitting the ball hard. Who else is due for some positive regression?

Derek Fisher, OF, Houston Astros

Derek Fisher has been leading off for the Houston Astros in George Springer's absence, but has been underwhelming in the eyes of DFS owners, with only one extra-base hit in five games. However, his average exit velocity on batted balls is 94.6 mph, which is 15th in the MLB over that span. He even had two balls travel at over 110 mph, suggesting Fisher has very good power -- something DFS players love.

Fisher will presumably lead off against Alex Cobb, Austin Pruitt, and Cesar Valdez, which all look like great matchups. While he won't be contrarian in these matchups, Fisher is still an awesome play at only $2,600 on FanDuel.
