4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 7/26/17
The San Diego Padres always seem to go overlooked, but Wil Myers and crew could post a big night at home. Who else makes for a strong sleeper play?

Wil Myers, 1B, San Diego Padres

FanDuel Price: $3,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

The Chicago Cubs boast an absurd implied team total of 5.59 runs, and that means Anthony Rizzo is likely to be a popular play against James Shields, who's allowed a .442 wOBA to lefties this year.

Playing at home tonight, which ranks 24th in park factor over the last three seasons, Wil Myers is likely to be a low-owned option.

Why You Should Use Him:

Even though he will be at home, sleeping on Myers is a bad idea.

Facing Steven Matz, the San Diego Padres could be in line for a big night. Over his last three starts against right-handed hitters, Matz has allowed a .681 slugging percentage and a .467 wOBA.

Myers, meanwhile, has shown plenty of pop versus lefties, including a 50.0% hard-hit rate and a 38.9% fly-ball rate.

Keep an eye out for the Padres and Myers as a sneaky stack option on the day.
