5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 8/1/18
Johan Camargo, 3B, Atlanta Braves
Price: $3,000
The Atlanta Braves' 5.08 implied total is the only mark higher than the White Sox' on today's main slate.
Miami will be starting righty Pablo Lopez, who has struggled through his first five Major League games. He has a shaky 4.12 SIERA, which doesn't inspire any more confidence than the 4.51 xFIP he posted in his four Triple-A games does. He's also allowing a 34.1% hard-hit, 11.4% soft-hit rate and .344 wOBA to left-handed bats.
Johan Camargo has a solid .346 wOBA and .194 ISO over 307 plate appearances this season. His best work has come against southpaws, but he still has a reasonable .328 wOBA, which comes on a big 38.6% hard-hit rate against righties.
