5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 4/9/19
Mark Reynolds, 1B, Colorado Rockies
Price: $3,000
A more expensive value option, Mark Reynolds' ceiling is tough to pass up at this price.
Even with his production trailing off in recent years, he's still showing plenty of upside, especially when we get him at Coors against a southpaw.
The last two years have seen him notch hard-hit rates of at least 35.0% in each, with fly-ball rates of at least 34.1% against southpaws. In his last season with the Rockies, he turned that into a .417 wOBA and .339 ISO at home against left-handed pitching.
Reynolds is making great contact this year, with a 36.4% hard-hit rate that's on pace to be his best since 2009, and with a 45.5% fly-ball rate and no ground-balls yet. Putting up hard fly-balls is always going to bring upside at Coors, and Reynolds offers some of the best home run potential for any value option on Tuesday.
