4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 8/1/17
Didi Gregorius has put up good numbers over the last couple months, but in spite of a strong matchup, you're better off passing on his lofty price for tonight's FanDuel main slate.

Whit Merrifield, OF, Kansas City Royals

FanDuel Price: $3,700

Dragging with him a 4.93 SIERA and giving up round-trippers by the bundle, Dylan Bundy has been a DFS hitter's elixir on many a night this year.

Due to all the fly balls he gives up, he's prone to the long ball, but he still holds his own against right-handed bats more often than not. Since the start of 2016, Bundy has a 24.7% strikeout rate and 29.5% hard-hit rate against them.

Whit Merrifield has been solid atop the Kansas City Royals lineup, but with just a 32.8% hard-hit rate and .321 xwOBA, he's vastly overpriced and isn't the kind of bopper you can expect to take advantage of Bundy's home run woes.
