Adrian Gonzalez DK price 4/27

What am I missing?  Is he playing Lincecum in a time warp?

Why is he $3,900?

After some thought, the only thing I can figure is that DraftKings generated hitter salaries based on Bumgarner's probable, and then it switched to Lincecum and they swapped the pitchers out but didn't change the Dodgers batters' salaries.

Unless somebody tells me something I'm missing, this makes Gonzalez a must-play?  And probably Rollins, too?

Once DK sets their prices, they cannot change them since users have already submitted lineups so you could be correct about Bumgarner.  My feeling is they don't go that deep with their pricing however.

He hasn't been on my radar all week, so i don't know what his price has been ... but definitely not below $4000.  I believe $5000 or above or definitely top-3 priced 1B.  Today seems like a very very large anomoly.

Here's his recent pricing history. Based on this they must consider opponent since it was Bumgarner when the price was 3800.  Your Bumgarner theory is likely correct.

3900
4600
4500
4300
4900
3800
4300
5600
5400
4900
4100

It alllllllllllllllll made sense ... until seeing that for 4/28, facing Bumgarner under presumably identical conditions ... ... ... Gonzalez is $4500 ... and probably one of the worst $/pt plays of the day!
