Casey Kelly Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections
Top bat may be missing tonight, but a surprising name in the leadoff spot for a well projected offense
Despite the absence of Joey Votto, the Cincinnati Reds still have one of the top run lines on the board (4.91) at home against the Giants. Casey Kelly makes the spot start and has not made a major league start in the last two calendar years, facing just 24 major league batters in relief since last season. He's faced around 150 batters from each side of the plate for his career, around half of those innings coming in 2012. Batters from either side of the plate have a wOBA against him between .365 and .370. The most interesting development here might be Billy Hamilton (65 wRC+, .071 ISO vs RHP last calendar year) at a low price. He may only need to reach base once to pay off and probably stands a better chance of that than normal considering how strongly this offense is projected. Jose Peraza (87 wRC+, .106 ISO) also only draws value from his low cost and great lineup spot in this matchup. Scooter Gennett (133 wRC+, .200 ISO), Eugenio Suarez (119 wRC+, .223 ISO) and even Preston Tucker (114 wRC+, .192 ISO) are higher quality bats. If you're looking for a punt catcher, you might be able to do worse than Curt Casali (144 wRC+, .222 ISO) for just $3K on DraftKings too.
