5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/29/18
Byron Buxton has struggled to start 2018, but he is poised to bounce back against Danny Duffy and the Royals. What other budget-friendly hitters should be on your radar on Tuesday?

Yasiel Puig, OF, Los Angeles Dodgers

Price: $2,600

Yasiel Puig is another boom-or-bust value option tonight, and he joins Pederson as another Dodgers bat quietly in a solid spot against Arrieta and the Phillies.

His production is way down this season, but he's still sporting a solid 33.0% hard-hit rate and 40.0% fly-ball rate. His batted-ball profile against righties shows some especially interesting upside, with a 35.7% hard-hit rate and 47.1% fly-ball rate. He has turned that contact against right-handed pitchers into a .331 wOBA and .207 ISO.

He's got a real shot of leaving you with a 0 in your lineup tonight, but his power gives him a high enough ceiling that he's well worth the risk tonight.
