Daniel Murphy a strong pick at 2B on Tuesday
by Chris Zolli | Tue, May 24th 6:49pm EDT
Daniel Murphy has only faced former teammate Matt Harvey twice in his career, but has a home run, walk and two RBI against the Mets' right-hander. Murphy has a .333 batting average over the last seven days and sports a .389 batting average this season.
Fantasy Impact:
Murphy has hit .420 in his new home of Washington and has a 1.062 OPS at home, although only two of his six home runs are at Nationals Park this season. He has provided pop in the lineup whether in front of or behind Bryce Harper and Harvey has allowed at least five runs in each of his last two starts. Look for the Nationals to pound Harvey once again and for Murphy to be a catalyst on Tuesday.
