Tommy Joseph, 1B, Philadelphia Phillies

FanDuel Price: $2,000

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Early on FanDuel's pricing doesn't reflect the upside of Tommy Joseph, the Philadelphia Phillies' first baseman who went 0-for-4 on Monday. He was $2,100 for Opening Day, and he's now a minimum-salary player. On a 12-game main slate, it's unlikely he sees much ownership.

Why You Should Use Him:

Joseph burst onto the scene in 2016 with a staggering .248 ISO over 347 plate appearances, slugging 21 home runs in his debut season.

Wednesday's starter for the Cincinnati Reds is lefty Brandon Finnegan, who no stranger to the long ball. He gave up 29 homers last year and 27 of those jacks were to righties.

Over his career, Joseph owns a .383 wOBA versus southpaws. Joseph has major pop and sits in a great spot on Wednesday.
