5 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Hitters for 6/23/16
Kris Bryant, 3B, Chicago Cubs
FanDuel Price: $4,100
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
The Coors game is going to dominate the ownership on today's small slate, and third base certainly will not be an exception. Nolan Arenado and Jake Lamb are two of the best hitters on their respective teams and will both be popular today, driving Kris Bryant's ownership down.
Why You Should Use Him:
Today we get to target one of the best hitters on the entire slate in an excellent matchup at low ownership. Bryant will draw a righty-lefty matchup against Wei-Yin Chen, the owner of a 5.22 ERA this season. Chen has been downright awful over his last three starts, giving up a combined 23 hits and 15 runs, good for a sparkling 9.88 ERA.
In his career, Chen has been much worse against right-handed batters. Chen's xFIP is up from 3.64 against lefties to 4.23 against righties.
Bryant has hit lefties much better in his career, and should have no problem with the reeling left-hander tonight. Bryant is one of the best tournament plays on the board tonight if you're comfortable fading the Coors third basemen.
