3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 4/26/19
Chris Archer has been on fire to start the year, but he's got a tough matchup on tap this evening. Which other players should we think about fading?

Chris Archer, SP, Pittsburgh Pirates

FanDuel Price: $8,900

Chris Archer of the Pittsburgh Pirates looks like he could be resurrecting his career so far in 2019 -- over 23 innings pitched, he's recorded a 2.74 ERA paired with a 28.0% strikeout rate. Not bad.

There's some warning signs to be aware of, though -- Archer's walk rate has risen to 9.7% this season, a soaring 45.5% fly-ball rate, and an 87.7% strand rate portend some regression is coming.

Now fold in the matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers who rank fifth in the league in team wOBA (.346) make Archer an easy fade.
