Daily Fantasy Baseball: Batted-Ball Positive Regression Candidates for Week 11
Avisail Garcia, OF, Chicago White Sox
Avisail Garcia is crushing everything lately. In the last 14 days, his hard-hit rate is 53.1% and his average exit velocity is 93.5 MPH on 32 batted-ball events. His price on FanDuel is $3.1K and he has performed well in a handful of games in the last couple weeks -- but his batted-ball profile and upcoming matchups make us think a big hot streak could be on the way.
Garcia has hit southpaws well this season, but the numbers above show that recently, he's hitting righties well, too. This week, he faces four very hittable pitchers in Wade Miley, Alec Asher, Dylan Bundy, and Chris Tillman. None of these hurlers are big strikeout guys and struggle with hard-contact, and Avisail Garcia is locked in right now, so keep your eyes on him.
