4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 9/15/16
Corey Dickerson and the Rays head to Camden Yards for a nice matchup against Yovani Gallardo.

Yunel Escobar, 3B, Los Angeles Angels

FanDuel Price: $2,900

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

The Los Angeles Angels are fighting to stay out of last place in the American League West, and the will face J.A. Happ, who has racked up 18 wins and a sparkling 3.33 ERA. With the Jays being -165 favorites on the moneyline, many Angels will likely go overlooked.

Why You Should Use Him:

Yunel Escobar has been hitting leadoff for the Angels, and he is posting an impressive .897 OPS and .154 ISO versus left-handed pitchers in 2016.

As good as Happ has been, he's struggled as of late, getting knocked around in both of his last two starts. Against opposite-sided bats, Happ's strikeout rate drops 6%, while his home run rate increases to 1.33 jacks per nine innings pitched.

All of this leads to Escobar being a sneaky play at the third base position.
