4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 8/2/17
Yasmani Grandal takes his talents to Atlanta, where Julio Teheran has really struggled. Who else makes for a strong sleeper play?

Eric Sogard, 2B, Milaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $2,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

It's never bad to have a nice option with a high floor, and DJ LeMahieu of the Colorado Rockies is just that. Returning home, LeMahieu has posted 9.0-plus FanDuel points in each of his last five outings, and is sure to be a popular play at home against rookie Chris Flexen.

Recently hitting the disabled list and sharing time in a crowded infield, Eric Sogard of the Milwaukee Brewers could see low ownership rates tonight.

Why You Should Use Him:

While Luke Weaver has been strong so far this year, where he posted a 27.3% strikeout rate in Triple-A, Sogard has been an absolute monster at Miller Park in 2017.

At home against right-handed pitching, in 79 plate appearances, Sogard has posted a .353 batting average, including a .987 OPS.

Sogard is a bargain-basement option who could be in line for a big evening against the St. Louis Cardinals rookie hurler.
