Jake Lamb, 3B, Arizona Diamondbacks

FanDuel Price: $3,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

A slate that includes a game at Coors often brings some great opportunities for big fantasy production, and the two third basemen playing there on Friday will be no different. Nolan Arenado and Justin Turner both are in great spots and should see very high ownership.

Jake Lamb matches up with Josh Tomlin and the Cleveland Indians, who's actually better against lefties (.287 wOBA against), so the young Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman could easily get overlooked.

Why You Should Use Him:

Lamb exploded last season with a .260 ISO, and no one enjoyed hitting at home more than him. Against righties at Chase Field, Lamb rocked a .946 OPS over 240 plate appearances.

And while Tomlin was death to lefties last year, he hasn't fared as well over the course of his career, allowing a 40.0% fly ball rate and a 31.8% hard-hit rate.

The 16th-most expensive third baseman is in line for a big day and should fly under the radar.
