5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 4/26/17
Ryan Rua, OF, Texas Rangers
FanDuel Price: $2,100
Once again, we're on Texas righties in this great spot against Santiago, and Ryan Rua is priced only $100 above the minimum salary.
While Rua's production has been really underwhelming to start the season (hence the low salary), he does own a pretty solid 33.3% hard-hit rate after setting a career-high with a 32.5% hard-hit rate in 2016.
He also mustered a decent 107 wRC+ with a .337 wOBA against left-handed pitching last year. While he's not an especially big threat for fantasy scoring on his own, combining those decent numbers with the fact that he's surrounded by what will likely be a high-scoring offense gives his fantasy value a nice boost tonight.
