6 Daily Fantasy Baseball Studs to Target on 5/5/16
Paul Goldschmidt, Arizona Diamondbacks
FanDuel Price: $4,200
Similar to Donaldson, Paul Goldschmidt is a masher of all baseballs, but he has a special place in his heart for baseballs thrown by left-handed pitchers.
| 2015 | Plate Appearances | wOBA | Home Runs | Hard Hit Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| vs. LHP | 144 | .455 | 8 | 48.3 |
| vs. RHP | 551 | .408 | 25 | 39.6 |
Look at that hard-hit rate versus lefties -- absurd.
What makes his matchup tonight even better is he’s squaring off with a meh lefty in Miami southpaw Adam Conley, who owns a career 4.11 xFIP. We project Goldschmidt to rack up 14 points, making him our fourth-ranked hitter for the day.
