3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 5/3/19
David Dahl, OF, Colorado Rockies
FanDuel Price: $4,300
Over his last seven games, David Dahl of the Colorado Rockies has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball, posting strong numbers of a .538 slugging percentage including an .835 OPS.
Dahl's 37.9 FanDuel point outburst in Milwaukee Wednesday showcased his upside, and the Rockies implied team total of 5.44 runs indicates fireworks are likely out west.
Dahl, unfortunately, matches up with Robbie Ray in this one, and a quick look at the lefty's career splits point to reduced production across the board, including strikeout rate (31.2% versus 24.5%), isolated power (ISO, .157 versus .252), and hard-hit rate (31.1% versus 37.5%).
The seventh-most expensive outfielder on the board, rostering Dahl could leave DFS players wanting more tonight.
