4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 8/3/16
With a great matchup against Rick Porcello, Adam Lind can offer big upside at an economical price. Who else can you target for value on Wednesday's slate?

Adam Lind, 1B, Seattle Mariners

FanDuel Price: $2,700

It's easy to look at Adam Lind's production this year and write the 33-year-old off as washed up and over the hill, but a deeper look at the numbers reveals that's not the case.

He's sporting a huge 39.0% hard-hit rate (well above his 35.1% career average), but his BABIP is sitting at a career-low .237.

He has hit a career .288/.347/.504 slash against right-handed pitching, and with a 40.3% hard-hit rate against righties this year, there's reason to believe his production will pick up.

Lind will benefit from a good matchup tonight against Boston Red Sox righty Rick Porcello, who has a 3.89 SIERA on the year as well as a career .344 wOBA and 4.14 xFIP against left-handed hitters.
