Mark Trumbo, OF, Baltimore Orioles

FanDuel Price: $3,600

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Mark Trumbo has really cooled off after a hot start and isn't likely to be popular with several outfielders having higher implied team totals.

Why You Should Use Him:

Trumbo will look to bust out of his slump in tonight's righty-lefty matchup against Derek Holland. Holland has a 5.14 ERA on the season and an even worse 5.43 xFIP. That number has risen to a 5.78 mark against right-handers this season, which makes sense because his xFIP against righties in his career is almost a full point higher than his xFIP against lefties.

Trumbo has hit lefties much better in his career, posting improved numbers across the board. His numbers against Holland are no exception, as Trumbo has owned the lefty in his career -- posting a .311 batting average with 5 homers in 45 at-bats against Holland.

Don't target Trumbo in cash games with the way he has played recently, but give him a look in tournaments.
