3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 4/12/19
Lorenzo Cain and the Brewers will look to continue their strong start, but may have their hands full against Julio Urias. Who else should we consider fading?

Lorenzo Cain, OF, Milwaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $4,200

Due to injuries in the past, understanding Julio Urias's platoon splits can be a bit challenging. But a deep dive shows he's actually been pretty tough on opposite-handed hitters.

For his career, spanning 366 total right-handed batters faced, Urias has been dominant in this spot, limiting those bats to a .292 wOBA, 27.2% hard-hit rate, and 31.3% fly-ball rate.

It all adds up to a tough evening for Lorenzo Cain. He was solid against lefties with a .422 wOBA in 2018, but his 30.2% fly-ball rate and tough matchup could make him a challenge to roster at this price.
