5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/15/17
Joc Pederson, OF, Los Angeles Dodgers
FanDuel Price: $2,600
Joc Pederson's recent production has left something to be desired, with a .298 wOBA in 9 games over the past 15 days. However, the way he's been hitting the ball leaves plenty of room for optimism -- he ranks third in the majors in average exit velocity (min. 10 batted balls) in that time.
He owns a .359 wOBA and 39.5% hard-hit rate against right-handed pitching, which puts him in an especially good spot against San Francisco Giants righty Matt Cain, whose ugly 5.00 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) doesn't come as much of a surprise after what he did in 2015 (4.78 SIERA) and 2016 (4.67).
Pederson is our top-projected point-per-dollar value of the day.
