4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 6/27/17
Trey Mancini, 1B, Baltimore Orioles
FanDuel Price: $3,400
Trey Mancini has been on fire in June, compiling a .460 wOBA while slugging seven home runs.
But much of his June success has come from a fortuitous .436 BABIP, and he's hitting quite his share of grounders (54.8%), which isn't a good sign that his high home run output will continue. He's also been striking out an undesirable 25.3% of the time.
Add in his rising cost while still batting fifth or sixth, and it feels like you're paying a premium for a performance that's due some regression.
Opposing pitcher Joe Biagini has stumbled in his last couple starts, but he has held righties to a 61.1% ground-ball rate and 24.8% hard-hit rate. In all, you can find more bang for your buck at first base tonight.
