Fantasy Baseball Daily League Sleepers and Value Plays for May 17th

Fantasy Baseball Daily League Sleepers and Value Plays for May 17th

by Michael Pichan (@FantasyNomad)

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="512"] Indians SP Ubaldo Jimenez has been on a roll of late[/caption]  

• P Ubaldo Jimenez ($16,682, 16.7 % of cap at  Draft Street - Play Now):  Ubaldo has not allowed more than two runs in each of his last three starts, in part because he has been limiting the walks. Jimenez has not allowed more than three walks in each of last four starts and you although the Mariners have been hitting the ball well, Brandon Maurer has not pitched well increasing the odds that Ubaldo could get the W. (Game Time 7:05 pm est)
• OF David Murphy Rangers ($55,000, 5.5% of cap at Daily Joust - Play Now): Minium salary for Murphy at Daily Joust and he is 6-for-12 with a home run vs. the RHP Rick Porcello, or as I like to call him "Porkchop" because opposing offense have him for dinner. (Game Time 8:05 pm est)
• OF Travis Snider Pirates ($2,600, 7.4% of cap at Fan Duel - Play Now): I started Snider in a few leagues last night and he delivered with 12.5 FP at Fan Duel and has an enticing matchup against Astros Jordan Lyles. (Game time 7:05 est)
• OF Vernon Wells Yankees ($7,850, 7.9% of cap at Draft Day - Play Now). While Wells comes at a steeper price tag at some other sites, including Daily Joust (11% of cap), Draft Day is providing you with a discounted opportunity at just about 8% of your cap space. Great deal for a player that has been crushing it like the 2009 Vernon Wells and he is batting clean up vs a lefty, Mark Buehrle.
• 3B Pedro Alvarez Pirates ($5,200, 12.5% of cap at Fan Throwdown - Play Now): I like Alvarez for a lot of reasons I like most Pirates again tonight, the match up vs. Jordan Lyles just looks so good on paper. (Game Time 7:05 pm est)
• 3B Martin Prado Diamondbacks ($71,000, 7.1% of cap at Daily Joust - Play Now): Prado has had his struggles this season, but has at least one hit in each of his last three games, so color me optimistic that he is on his way to turning it around.  (Game Time 7:10 pm est)
• SS Stephen Drew Red Sox ($7,510, 7.5% of cap at Draft Street - Play Now): Drew has hit a little better of late including three extra base hits in his last three games and he's facing Vance Worley who the Red Sox had little trouble with just recently on May 6. (Game Time 7:05 pm est)
