3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 6/29/18
Eduardo Rodriguez has been brilliant in 2018, but he draws a nasty matchup with the Yankees tonight. Who else should we look to avoid on Friday?

Starlin Castro, 2B, Miami Marlins

FanDuel Price: $2,800

Jacob deGrom has been an absolute stud so far this season. In 101 1/3 innings pitched, the New York Mets' ace has posted a 2.88 SIERA, 27.8% hard-hit rate, and 31.4% strikeout rate.

He's been even tougher on same-sided bats, which could make it a rough go for Miami Marlins' cleanup man Starlin Castro. Over 197 total batters faced, righties have only managed a .202 wOBA, 34.5% strikeout rate, and 0.18 home runs per nine innings pitched (HR/9).

Fold in Castro's 30.1% fly-ball rate against righties, and there are certainly better options to consider at second base.
