Daily League Sleepers: I Ain\'t Josh\'n Ya

Fantasy Baseball Daily League Sleepers, Value Plays, & MLB Daily Lineup Decisions for July 9th

by Michael Pichan (@FantasyNomad)

 

P Josh Johnson Blue Jays ($6,300, 18% of cap at Fan Duel- Play Now): I have been a critic of Josh Johnson over the past few years in re-draft leagues due to his injury history, and most recently his move to the American League and hitter friendly Rogers Centre. Well, he is healthy, the game is not in Rogers Centre (at pitcher friendly Progressive Park), and Johnson is striking out more than a batter an inning over his last four starts and he could be in line for some decent run support as Ubaldo Jimenez toes the slab opposite him for the Indians tonight.

OF Chirs Heisey ($3,400, 6.8% of cap at Draft Kings - Play Now): Chris Heisey came through yesterday and is 4 for last 8 with that HR.

OF Alfonso Soriano Cubs ($9,050, 6.6% of cap at Draft Day - Play Now): Somewhat a value for a player who is 3 for last 8 with 2 HR, 10 extra-base hits in last 10 games, and is facing homer friendly Joe Blanton tonight

OF Colby Rasmus Blue Jays ($7,405, 7.4% of cap at Draft Street - Play Now): Hitting .452 over his last 42 at-bats and will face homer friendly Dan Haren. If rain worries you go Reds OF Chris Hiesy

1B/DH Luke Scott Rays ($3,000, 6.0% of cap at Fan Duel- Play Now): Luke Scott  is hitting .368 (21-for-57) with 11 RBIs over his last 18 games. Of those 21 hits, 12 have been for extra bases, including his sixth home run of the year on Monday.

2B Nick Franklin Mariners ($7,690, 7.7% of cap Draft Street - Play Now ): You could consider his teammate Dustin Ackley (min. salary) if you wanted to punt the position.

SS Didi Gregorius DBacks  ($2,200, 6.6% of cap at Fan Duel- Play Now):  Didi Gregorius L/R vs Nolasco 5-7 .714

3B Chris Johnson Braves ($7,600, 7.6% of cap Draft Day - Play Now): Chris Johnson .405 last 37 AB

C Dioner Navarro Cubs ($75,000, 7.5% of cap at Daily Joust - Play Now): Navarro is hitting 5th tonight and hits lefties very well.

Teams to Stack: Jays vs Ubaldo, Reds vs Peralta, Dodgers vs Ian Kennedy, and Mariners vs Allan Webster
