5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/1/18
Despite a slow start to the year, Zack Cozart offers strong value against Alex Cobb and the Orioles tonight. What other low-cost bats should you target on Tuesday?

Logan Morrison, 1B, Minnesota Twins

Price: $2,500

We go back to Minnesota one more time for this one. Estrada is allowing a massive 55.3% fly-ball rate in 2018, and he has an ugly 5.17 xFIP against left-handed bats this season.

Logan Morrison, like Cozart, is struggling to open the season, but that appears to be thanks to an unsustainably low BABIP. Morrison's previous career-low mark was at .248, and his career-average sits at .270. In 2018, he has only managed a .167, despite a solid 35.7% hard-hit rate.

Morrison has a 35.4% hard-hit and 47.9% fly-ball rate against right-handed pitching, and bringing that pop into a matchup with Estrada puts him in a good spot to turn that production around.
