Josh Reddick, OF, Houston Astros

FanDuel Price: $3,400

Josh Reddick has served well as a solid punt option on many a DFS slate this season, but his recent hot play is making the price less palatable.

Hitting out of the two-hole for the Houston Astros is a plum spot, but Reddick has just a 22.5% hard-hit rate and 84.5 mph average exit velocity. Despite a respectable .186 ISO and five homers, he only hit 10 across 439 plate appearances in 2016.

Opposing pitcher Dan Straily may not not be the most intimidating foe, but he does sport a 24.0% strikeout rate, and is pitching in run-suppressing Marlins Park.

Wait for a better price and matchup before getting back in on Reddick.
