4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 8/10/16
Preston Tucker, OF, Houston Astros
FanDuel Price: $2,000
Through his first two seasons, Preston Tucker has shown some impressive power against right-handed pitching with a 34.0% hard-hit rate and a .213 ISO through 376 plate appearances.
He's up against Ervin Santana, who is sporting a 4.38 SIERA on the year (to go with his career mark of 4.13). Santana has also allowed a career .333 wOBA with a 4.33 xFIP against left-handed hitters.
While Tucker isn't the most consistent stick and is far from a safe option, he has undeniable upside. That's especially true here with a good matchup, and he can be had for the minimum salary.
