Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 19
Greg Bird continues to frustrate Yankee fans and fantasy owners alike, but his underlying trends show that he could finally be turning the corner.

Brian Anderson, OF, Miami Marlins

Brian Anderson is one of the this season's lone bright spots for the largely futile Miami Marlins' offense. The former third-round pick has been on a modest run since the start of June, with a .289 average and 21 extra-base hits over that span.

Plus, his advanced metrics over the last month show that he could still ratchet things up a notch or two. The no-name Marlin has a 42.8% hard-hit rate and 24.4% liners over the last 30 days to go with an immaculate 1% strikeouts-minus-walks clip. If Anderson is indeed poised for a late-season surge, his FanDuel salary in the mid $2,000s could prove to be a bargain, especially with the shaky rotations of the Mets and Cardinals on tap this week.
