3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 8/1/18
Eric Thames has continued to showcase his power this year, but he's got a rough matchup against Rich Hill. Who else should we look to avoid?

Jake Junis, SP, Kansas City Royals

FanDuel Price: $6,600

After a strong start to the 2018 season, Jake Junis has struggled in recent turns on the hill, and he could be in for another long night tonight.

Over 110 1/3 innings pitched, Junis owns a 41.5% hard-hit rate and 40.4% fly-ball rate, which has him working in and out of trouble quite a bit in 2018. He's done a solid job limiting free passes to a 6.6% walk rate, but since the calendar turned to June, things have regressed even further for him.

Over his last eight starts, Junis has recorded an 0-7 record thanks in large part to a 51.4% hard-hit rate. Staying away from the Kansas City Royals righty is your best bet.
