High Value OF

Nomar Mazara-Texas Rangers (4,000): Mazara continues to be a very productive option for the Rangers and went an impressive 4-4 last night with four singles and two runs scored.  He had over 20 fantasy points for the third time in his last four games and will look to keep things going tonight against Dallas Keuchel. It is a lefty-lefty matchup, but Mazara has gone 3-7 against Keuchel in his career, so go ahead and roll with the Rangers right fielder tonight. He is now an impressive 9-19 (.474) for the month of June and has become a central piece of the Texas lineup. ∗∗∗∗

Christian Yelich-Miami Marlins (3,800): Yelich has hit in six straight games and is 11-24 (.458) over the last week with three doubles and four RBI.  His recent hot streak has bumped his average up to .328 on the season and he comes into tonight’s matchup with the Twins sporting an impressive .930 OPS. Yelich hasn’t faced Pat Dean in his career, but he hasn’t has any issues with lefties this season hitting .316 against them. Yelich doesn’t have the power of Trumbo or Harper, but he’s a very solid option who is on quite a roll right now. ∗∗∗

Hyun Soo Kim-Baltimore Orioles (3,700): Kim sat out last night against the Royals and is being used almost exclusively against right-handed pitchers by Manager Buck Showalter. Kim has been effective when he has started though hitting .421 in June (8-19) with a pair of doubles.  He is hitting .377 on the season and will continue to be a central part of the Orioles attack whenever they face a right-handed starter like tonight against KC’s Yordano Ventura.∗∗∗

Rajai Davis-Cleveland Indians (3,400): Davis hit his sixth homer of the season last night and added another hit and a stolen base to a very productive night of 22 fantasy points.  He raised his average to .261 with his 2-4 effort and will look to keep producing for the suddenly-scorching Tribe as they face Wade Miley and the M’s tonight.  Davis is 3-7 against Miley in his career with a pair of homers, five RBI, and a walk. Davis is a multi-faceted threat and a very good value at just over 3K. ∗∗∗∗∗
