Byron Buxton, $2,700

As with Tommy Joseph, we've spent plenty of time this spring talking about Byron Buxton. I promise it'll stop soon, but now is not the time. At this initial price, Buxton is looking spicy for DFS.

In filling out our daily lineups, we basically need hitters who can do one of two things: hit for power or swipe some bags. Buxton has always had the speed, and he showed last September that he had the pop. Now, with a reduced strikeout rate this spring, he may be getting a higher floor, as well, only amplifying the volume of his Siren song.

As with most of the other guys on this list, Buxton's price doesn't match where he'll likely hit in the order. He hasn't hit lower than fifth the entire spring, and Buxton's past few games have come as the Minnesota Twins' three hitter. It's hard to get too excited in a matchup against Danny Duffy on Monday, but going forward, this is a really solid situation.
