Rougned Odor, 2B, Texas Rangers

FanDuel Price: $3,500

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Rougned Odor continues to be underowned, despite his terrific play. With Robinson Cano, Ian Kinsler, Jose Altuve, and Dustin Pedroia all in better situations, that trend is likely to continue.

Why You Should Use Him:

Odor has looked like a man on a mission since returning from his suspension, hitting .313 with a .642 slugging percentage and a ridiculous 54 percent hard-hit rate and just an 8 percent soft-hit rate.

Odor will get a chance to keep piling onto his gaudy numbers in tonight's lefty-righty matchup against Kevin Gausman. Gausman's 4.14 ERA on the season doesn't look bad, but he has struggled to the tune of a 6.15 ERA in his last five starts. Gausman has really faced issues with the long ball during that span, allowing eight homers.

Odor has crushed right-handed pitching in his career and has legitimate power upside in tonight's matchup against Gausman. He's a good value play in any format tonight.
