4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 5/26/17
Ryan Zimmerman is one of four guys you can avoid in MLB DFS tonight. Who else should be left off your rosters?

Dan Straily, SP, Miami Marlins

FanDuel Price: $8,500

Out of the litany of viable pitching options, Dan Straily is one who doesn't make the cut, despite a sweet looking 24.5% strikeout rate.

The problem is that his strikeout rate is deceiving because 22 of his 48 strikeouts have come in two games, including 14 strikeouts against the lowly Padres. Furthermore, he hasn't pitched deep into most games, surpassing six innings only twice this season.

He also gets an average matchup against the Los Angeles Angels, who have a 3.82 implied team total. Against righties they strike out 20.3% of the time and have a 92 wRC+.

Straily is unlikely to have the type of ceiling game you'll need to keep up with tonight's top options.
