3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 8/3/18
With three homers since July 20th, Randal Grichuk has been hot at the dish, but hasn't been at his best against lefties. Who else should we look to avoid on Friday?

David Hess, SP, Baltimore Orioles

FanDuel Price: $5,500

While it may be tempting to pivot down at the pitcher slot tonight, Baltimore Orioles pitcher David Hess does not make a great option as he faces the Texas Rangers, who are one of the hottest offenses in baseball.

Over the last two weeks, the Rangers rank third-best in baseball in team weighted on-base average (wOBA, .366) and sixth-best in hard-hit rate (40.0%). In addition, Hess has only generated a 13.5% strikeout rate, while allowing a 48.2% fly-ball rate.

Cheap pitching options can always be tempting, but Hess is one to avoid.
