MLB
4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 5/19/17
Heating up recently after a slow start, Rougned Odor could be in line for a big night. Who else makes for a solid sleeper play on Friday's MLB DFS slate?

Carlos Gonzalez, OF, Colorado Rockies

FanDuel Price: $2,900

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

The Washington Nationals offense keeps chugging along, thanks to stud Bryce Harper. Friday night may not be much different, as they'll face the Atlanta Braves and R.A. Dickey, who's logged a 5.24 SIERA this year. Harper will surely be a very heavily-owned choice.

Despite hitting in one of the best offensive environments in the league, Carlos Gonzalez of the Colorado Rockies has really gotten off to a tough start in 2017, posting only a .261 wOBA.

Why You Should Use Him:

There's a couple of reasons that CarGo is on the verge of a breakout, and it starts with his recent run of hot play.

While he threw up a goose egg last night, he'd posted nine-plus FanDuel points in four of his last six contests prior to it.

Certainly, tonight's road tilt at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati, which ranks fourth in home run factor over the last three seasons, won't do him any harm.

Combine that with facing Cincinnati Reds rookie Lisalverto Bonilla, who's posted a 4.31 SIERA this year, and Gonzalez could be on the verge of exploding.
