5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 4/27/18
Returning from the DL, Xander Bogaerts is a steal at minimum-salary. What other budget-friendly hitters should you target on Friday?

Kendrys Morales, 1B, Toronto Blue Jays

Price: $2,200

The Texas Rangers are throwing lefty Mike Minor tonight, and the Toronto Blue Jays offense is in a great spot against him. A relief pitcher in 2017, Minor has made four starts this season, struggling to the tune of a 4.11 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) while allowing a whopping 40.4% hard-hit and 53.6% fly-ball rate.

Kendrys Morales may be getting up there in age, but he can still crush baseballs against lefties. In a small sample to start the season, he has a massive 54.6% hard-hit rate to go with a 9.1% soft-hit rate, and he's coming off a 2017 season that saw him turn a 41.4% hard-hit rate into a .420 wOBA.

Priced down only $200 above the minimum, it's easy to like his potential in this spot.
