Daily Fantasy Baseball: Positive Batted-Ball Regression Candidates for Week 3

​Josh Donaldson, 3B, Atlanta Braves

We're still waiting for Josh Donaldson to shake off the rust from his injury-riddled 2018. The newly-minted Atlanta Braves' slugger hasn't exactly soared out of the gate, with a meager .472 slugging percentage thanks to just two long balls across 65 plate appearances.

Donaldson has otherwise looked every bit the professional hitter, working a 18.5% walk rate while posting ultra-low marks in terms of swinging strikes and reaches outside of the zone. With an eye-popping 59.0% hard-hit rate and a minuscule 7.7% soft-contact rate, Donaldson looks to be on the verge of breaking through, provided he can stay on the field.

Daily players can look to Donaldson as a big stick at mid-market price in Week 3, particularly when he draws a beatable Arizona staff at home to start the week.
