5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Studs for 4/15/16
Alex Rodriguez, $2,900 on FanDuel
How about a blast from the past?
Alex Rodriguez has a great matchup tonight, and given that he has just one home run and two RBI on the season, he will likely be underowned.
His opponent, Nate Karns, had crazy reverse splits versus right-handed batters in 2015.
This includes a 36.5% hard hit rate and 14 home runs, compared to 32.3% and 5 against lefties.
Last year, A-Rod hit a .221 ISO versus righties and slugged 22 of his 33 home runs versus them. The righty-righty matchup will be another reason he goes overlooked in tournaments, but don't make that mistake: he's an elite option tonight.
