DraftKings: David Price, Bryce Harper Star In Tom Caron’s Value Picks

Many MLB teams, including the Boston Red Sox, open their 2016 season Monday.

The Red Sox are in Cleveland to take on the Indians, where they also will face former manager Terry Francona. NESN’s Tom Caron will be sharing his value picks on DraftKings throughout the season, and he is selecting Boston’s ace, David Price, for Monday.

Price, who signed with Boston as a free agent over the winter, was one of the best pitchers in baseball last season and is aiming to start his Red Sox career with a win. It’s shaping up to be a low-scoring game because the weather in Cleveland is cloudy with temperatures in the low 30s.

Here are TC’s three value picks for Monday, April 4 (stats are from 2015).

— David Price, SP, Boston Red Sox: 18-5, 2.45 ERA, 225 SO
— Josh Donaldson, 3B, Toronto Blue Jays: .297 avg., 41 HR, 123 RBI
— Bryce Harper, OF, Washington Nationals: .330 avg., 42 HR, 99 RBI
