Ryan McMahon, 3B, Colorado Rockies

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Playing in Coors Field, Travis Shaw makes for a pretty appealing option at third base. He's expensive ($4,300), but that .969 OPS against righties is too hard to ignore.

Just called up from the Colorado Rockies and with only 11 plate appearances to his name, Ryan McMahon is probably not on the radar for many folks.

Why You Should Use Him:

It's hard to believe a Coors Field player can be overlooked, but in this case, it seems pretty likely.

With superstar Nolan Arenado leaving yesterday's game early, the Rockies prospect has a great shot of being in today's lineup.

Ignoring all of the Coors Field goodness, McMahon has been raking. In 269 very nice Triple-A plate appearances, the third baseman has a .625 slugging percentage to go with four stolen bases.

We should also consider that he's taking aim at Matt Garza, who's allowed a 37.5% fly-ball rate this year. All of this makes McMahon an intriguing play.
