Brandon Moss, 1B, St. Louis Cardinals

FanDuel Price: $3,700

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

First base is deep once again today. I'd expect Miguel Cabrera, David Ortiz, and Mark Reynolds to draw some ownership away from Brandon Moss, leaving him somewhat underowned.

Why You Should Use Him:

Moss has just been destroying the ball in June and -- as a result -- has taken the lion's share of the playing time in St. Louis' first-base platoon. Since June 1, Moss has a .655 wOBA with a 1.107 slugging percentage (not a typo). He's averaged a ridiculous 22.4 FanDuel points per start in June.

Moss clearly can't remain this hot, but tonight's matchup against Doug Fister may let him keep the hot streak alive for at least one more day. Fister has a respectable 3.34 ERA on the year, but his 4.84 SIERA suggests that regression is coming. Moss has absolutely demolished right-handed pitching in his career and should be a big part of St. Louis reaching its 4.5 implied team total tonight.
