4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 8/1/17
Melky Cabrera, OF, Kansas City Royals
FanDuel Price: $2,700
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
On fire away from Coors, Charlie Blackmon should see a ton of ownership as he returns to Denver. In July, Blackmon batted .370, and has posted a 1.219 OPS against lefties at home this season.
Despite a torrid July, Melky Cabrera and his average .327 wOBA are likely to be faded from lineups.
Why You Should Use Him:
Cabrera returns to Kansas City, and the Royals faithful should be excited. Cabrera smashed his way to a .326 batting average and .894 OPS in July, which were both monthly highs.
Even better, he travels to Camden Yards, which ranks eighth in park factor and sixth in home run factor the last three seasons.
Dylan Bundy has struggled as of late, and Cabrera should be licking his chops. For the season, Bundy's allowed a .360 wOBA to lefties, including a 37.3% hard-hit rate and a 52.0% fly-ball rate at home against the platoon.
