Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 7
Marcell Ozuna, OF, St. Louis Cardinals
Marcell Ozuna continues to be one of the major's most unimpressive regulars in terms of power production, with a barely-there .093 isolated slugging across 160 plate appearances. Ozuna's walks are down and his strikeouts slightly up, but his contact profile looks fine: check out that 49.6% hard-hit rate and 20.9% line-drive rate.
The worm is bound to turn for Ozuna, and the more his FanDuel price plummets, the more he seems like an excellent value play, even if he's facing all righties in Week 7. The outfielder doesn't have particularly pronounced career platoon splits (.270 batting average with .173 isolated slugging against right handers), and the righty arms on tap -- the likes of Lance Lynn, Nick Pivetta, and Vincent Velasquez -- aren't exactly daunting.
