Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 18
You wouldn't know it from his surface results, but Nick Castellanos has been locked in over the last month.

Brandon Nimmo burst onto the scene with a vengeance in the first half, rocketing to a 1.004 OPS through the end of May. But he's crashed to earth just as emphatically this summer, posting a .667 OPS with a hair-raising 34.3% strikeout rate in July.

Even through his July struggles, the third-year New York Mets' outfielder has managed a 15.2% walk rate, 24.4% line-drive rate, and shrewd 20.8% reach rate, meaning he's not nearly as lost at the plate as his surface numbers seem to indicate. With his FanDuel salary settling into the low $3,000s, the seemingly struggling outfielder could make for a profitable play in the coming week.
