Bartolo Colon, SP, Minnesota Twins

FanDuel Price: $44

Yes, you read that right. Bartolo Colon is priced at $44 in honor of his age in what might be his last major league start. If you look at the names of FanDuel's biggest tournaments tonight, you'll find they're all Colon nicknames.

It's an amusing situation for sure, and considering you're essentially getting a pitcher for free, there's certainly an argument to giving Colon a shot. As mentioned in today's Daily Fantasy Helper, there's nothing wrong throwing a tournament lineup out there in case he can hang in there against the Cleveland Indians. After all, even if he nets you 20-30 fantasy points, that's a win.

However, just know that his chances of success are very low, so you should limit your exposure -- if you want to go here at all. The Indians have a 5.41 implied team total against Colon, who has some ugly numbers in the form of a 6.63 ERA, 13.6% strikeout rate, and .386 wOBA allowed. Frankly, he could very well net you negative points when it's all said and done.
