5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 5/19/17
Kendrys Morales, 1B, Toronto Blue Jays
FanDuel Price: $2,900
Kendrys Morales is coming off a productive performance on Thursday, and with the way he has been hitting the ball recently, it's no surprise to see him generate some nice fantasy numbers.
Over 300 hitters have recorded at least 10 batted balls over the past 15 days. Morales ranks third in average exit velocity and 26th in average batted-ball distance.
He's been making excellent contact all season, with a 39.0% hard-hit rate that is right in line with the big 41.1% he posted in 2016. He's in a good spot to turn that into fantasy production against Baltimore Orioles righty Chris Tillman, who has an ugly 4.99 skill-interactive ERA (SIERA) through two starts after finishing with marks of 4.69 and 4.61 over the past two years.
