Denard Span Hitting .309 Against Right-Handed Pitching
6 years agoSeattle Mariners outfielder Denard Span is hitting .318 over his last 44 at-bats heading into a huge series Monday night against the Astros. Seattle will face right-hander Gerrit Cole and Span is hitting .309 against right-handed pitching this season. He does not possess a lot of power but has been one of the most consistent hitters in the Mariners lineup the past few months. One area where fantasy owners need to be cautious is Span's contrasting home/road splits. Span is slashing only .260/.309/.370 at Safeco Field this season while posting a .350/.387/.590 line through 31 road games. Span's DFS value is best utilized away from Safeco Field and his value is highest in deep, AL-only leagues right now.
