4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 7/6/16
Matt Holliday has huge upside against Jeff Locke and the Pirates tonight. What other players can give you big numbers while allowing you to save some cash?

Chase Headley, 3B, New York Yankees

FanDuel Price: $2,800

He's no world-beater, but lefty Chase Headley holds his own against right-handed pitching. On the year, he has a 33.2% hard-hit rate, .326 wOBA and .143 ISO against righties. If we expand our view to his whole career, that wOBA jumps to .334.

What makes him really appealing tonight, though, is his matchup with righty Miguel Gonzalez, because Gonzalez has been awful in his career.

For the fifth time in as many seasons, Gonzalez is sporting a SIERA above 4.40, sporting a career-worst 4.88 clip. He has a shaky 4.54 xFIP against left-handed hitters over his career, with an especially ugly 5.31 xFIP against lefties this season.

This is a really good spot for Headley.
