4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 6/6/17
Dinelson Lamet has flashed some impressive stuff since being called up, and he's unlikely to see much ownership against the ball-bashing Arizona Diamondbacks.

Eric Sogard, SS, Milwaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $2,800

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

There may not be a hotter offense than the Cleveland Indians, and they'll take their talents to Coors Field tonight. Currently sporting the highest implied team total of the day (5.63 runs), stud Francisco Lindor and his buddies are sure to be popular plays.

A sneakier option on the slate is Eric Sogard of the Milwaukee Brewers. He's held down the leadoff spot lately when Milwaukee has faced a right-handed pitcher, but without being a regular starter, Sogard isn't a heavily-owned option most days.

Why You Should Use Him:

Since getting called up from Triple-A this season, Sogard has been a man on fire. Over 64 plate appearances, he has posted a .487 wOBA, and his 21.9% walk rate has made him one heck of a table-setting option.

Sogard and the Brew Crew will face Matt Cain, who has struggled on the road this year with an 8.28 ERA over 25 innings pitched. Lefties have been particularly hard on Cain, notching a 32.6% hard-hit rate so far this season.

Assuming Sogard is at the top of the order again, he provides some nice value in a really favorable matchup.
