5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/1/17
Carlos Beltran, OF, Houston Astros
FanDuel Price: $2,800
The switch-hitting Carlos Beltran also stands to benefit from the Astros' terrific matchup against Cashner.
The 40-year-old Beltran is obviously not still the powerhouse that he once was, but he does still has some pop left in his bat -- he finished 2016 with a .358 wOBA and .217 ISO on a 35.8% hard-hit rate.
It has been a rough start to 2017, but he's cheap and this matchup with Cashner -- especially with the bump in potential runs scored the Astros' high implied total suggests -- is more than enough to create some solid value.
