4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 9/25/18
Nick Williams offers some big upside against a righty at Coors Field. What other cheap hitters should you target?

Max Kepler, OF, Minnesota Twins

Price: $2,500

Another way to attack Spencer Turnbull and get exposure to the Twins' high-upside offense is Max Kepler, who lets you do that while getting significant savings over Jake Cave.

Kepler is making some great contact against righties this year, with a 36.4% hard-hit rate and 48.2% fly-ball rate, both of which top his career averages (35.4% hard-hit rate and 43.2% hard-hit rate).

Despite this, his home-run-to-fly-ball rate sits at only 9.3% (compared to a 12.5% career-average), and his BABIP checks in at .221 (compared to a .259 career average). His drop in production this year looks to be heavily rooted in variance working against him, which leaves him offering some nice under-priced upside.
