Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 15
Struggling Brewers slugger Travis Shaw has strong peripherals in his recent sample and gets plenty of righties to mash in Week 15.

Travis Shaw, 3B, Milwaukee Brewers

That soft upcoming schedule for the Milwaukee Brewers should look particularly enticing to Travis Shaw, who is hoping to reverse a month-long slide that's seen him slash .211/.322/.310 over his last 87 plate appearances.

Shaw appears to be seeing the ball well, though, tallying a 13.8% walk rate and just a 7.5% swinging-strike rate over that span, with a very respectable 40.7% hard-hit rate. The lefty slugger carries a .238 isolated slugging (ISO) against righties over the last two seasons, and with the likes of Dan Straily, Pablo Lopez, and Ivan Nova on the horizon, Shaw's mid-$3,000s FanDuel salary should make him a prime value play.
