Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 13
Mike Moustakas' production has been slipping, but his skill metrics still look very strong. Which other hitters are primed to bounce back in Week 13?

Logan Morrison, 1B, Minnesota Twins

We all know Logan Morrison runs hot and cold, but June has seen him hit quite a nasty ice patch. The Minnesota Twins' slugger is slashing an abysmal .175/.232/.317 in 69 plate appearances this month, with only 5 hits for extra bases and 16 totals runs and RBIs.

The peripherals tell a different story, though, with Morrison stroking a 42.0% hard-contact rate and 26.0% liners on the month, yet he owns an insanely low .188 batting average on balls in play (BABIP), pegging him as especially unlucky over that span.

The Twins benefit from a very lefty-friendly schedule in Week 13, particularly during their series against the Chicago White Sox, setting up Morrison and his mid-$2,000s salary as a noteworthy value play.
