FanDuel MLB DFS Breakdown – 7/3/19: Rocky Mountain High
By Joe Metz
FanDuel MLB – Top Third Basemen
Cash: Nolan Arenado | COL | $4,600
You had to see this one coming; Nolan Arenado, in Coors, against a lefty? Lock button.
Like I hit on with Daniel Murphy, Wade Miley has been a serviceable pitcher this season, but Arenado is a different animal against southpaws at home. With those filters this season, he’s posted a 0.501 wOBA, 0.333 ISO and a 48.7% hard contact rate. You’re staring at the top overall play on the slate, so get him into your lineups.
GPP: Rafael Devers | BOS | $4,100
If you’re looking for an elite pivot with minimal ownership, Rafael Devers is your guy. He’s exploded in his sophomore season, especially against righties, posting a 0.403 wOBA, 0.227 ISO and a 40.3% hard-contact rate.
Reid-Foley has been drilled by lefties, as hit on above, allowing a 0.433 wOBA and 0.211 ISO. Devers should also hit 2nd or 3rd tonight, putting him squarely in the middle of an elite offense.
Honorable Mentions: Mike Moustakas, Colin Moran (top value at the position)
