4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Players to Avoid on 5/22/17
Michael Fulmer, SP, Detroit Tigers
FanDuel Price: $9,700
Michael Fulmer must be enjoying himself this season, strutting along to the tune of eight straight quality starts on the backs of his 2.72 ERA and 27.5% hard-hit rate.
But he gets a tough opponent in the Houston Astros, who have a 119 wRC+ and 19.1% strikeout rate against righties. The Astros have a 4.49 implied team total.
Additionally, a 3.82 SIERA and .262 BABIP suggests regression is coming, and his 21.3% strikeout rate doesn't match the upside of Zack Greinke or Michael Pineda.
The Detroit Tigers hope the good times continue to roll, but this could be a spot when Fulmer's quality start streak ends.
