4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 8/17/17
Adam Lind draws a great matchup tonight against Padres' righty Jhoulys Chacin, who has a 5.14 xFIP against left-handed bats. Who else should you target for big-time value in daily fantasy on Thursday?

Robinson Chirinos, C, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $2,700

The Texas Rangers' 5.98 implied total doesn't quite stack up compared to some of the huge marks on today's early slate, but it is the highest mark on the main slate by a wide margin.

Their matchup is a strong one, as they take on Chicago White Sox righty Reynaldo Lopez, who has a weak 4.58 SIERA through 12 career major league games.

Robinson Chirinos isn't an especially consistent producer from the dish, but he has cracked right-handed pitching for a 35.6% hard-hit rate and 56.5% fly-ball rate this season. He offers plenty of upside with this strong matchup at home at the hitter-friendly Globe Life Park.
