4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 7/21/16
John Jaso, 1B, Pittsburgh Pirates
FanDuel Price: $3,000
The Pirates have a promising 5.16 implied total as they take on the Milwaukee Brewers and struggling starter Matt Garza.
Garza had an ugly 2015 campaign, posting a 4.68 SIERA and 5.63 ERA, and his 2016 season has been even worse so far, with a 5.00 SIERA and 5.74 ERA. He is also sporting only a 12.8 percent strikeout rate.
John Jaso will likely have the honor of hitting leadoff in this one, putting him in a position to see plenty of plate appearances in a favorable matchup, something that is always enticing. Jaso has hit right-handed pitching well over his career, with a .274/.365/.423 slash, a .349 wOBA, and a .149 isolated slugging, and he's a great value against Garza here.
