4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 6/28/16
Oswaldo Arcia, OF, Tampa Bay Rays
FanDuel Price: $2,100
Finding a new home in Tampa Bay has so far looked like a big positive for Oswaldo Arcia, who has posted six hits with two doubles and a home run as well as three runs scored and four RBI in 14 plate appearances since joining the Rays earlier this week.
He's a bit of a boom-or-bust hitter, though, owning a 36.5 percent hard-hit rate and .198 isolated slugging yet a 39.8 percent strikeout rate against right-handed pitching this season. Still, with such a low salary, you're not taking too much of a risk while also getting big upside.
He has a favorable matchup tonight against Rick Porcello, who has a 4.10 xFIP against left-handed hitters this season and a 4.16 over his career while sporting a low 14.7 percent strikeout rate that helps to alleviate Arcia's strikeout concerns a bit.
