5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/7/18
Albert Almora Jr., OF, Chicago Cubs
Price: $2,800
Jarlin Garcia has had an especially tough time with right-handed bats in his brief MLB career, sporting an ugly 5.31 xFIP in the split.
Albert Almora Jr. hasn't produced especially well in his young career, with a .329 wOBA, but his numbers become a lot more interesting if we look at just his work against southpaws.
Over 200 plate appearances against lefties in his three seasons in the bigs, he has an 8.5% walk rate with only a 12.0% strikeout rate while turning in a .380 wOBA and .198 ISO. His struggles with righties keep his price-tag down, leaving him way under-priced in tonight's matchup.
