Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 10
Chris Owings, OF, Arizona Diamondbacks
The Chase Field humidor has done no favors for Chris Owings, who has looked like one of the least-essential everyday players in baseball through two months, slashing a miserable .184/.246/.285 over 171 plate appearances.
But the box score isn't a total flop for the Arizona Diamondbacks utility man, who is walking more and reaching at fewer pitches outside of the zone, with hard-hit and line-drive rates showing nowhere near the depreciation of skills that his surface stats indicate.
Daily players would be wise to earmark Owings and his mid-$2,000s salary on FanDuel in Week 10; he lines up against the imminently hittable Derek Holland before taking a welcome trip to hitter's heaven in Coors Field.
