Asdrubal Cabrera, SS, New York Mets

FanDuel Price: $3,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Asdrubal Cabrera is rarely a popular play and with Trevor Story at an identical price today, that doesn't seem likely to change.

Why You Should Use Him:

Cabrera homered for the second consecutive game yesterday, and he has now hit safely in six of his past seven games. He is getting hot just in time for tonight's matchup against the not-so-hot Matt Wisler.

Cabrera, a switch-hitter, has posted pretty even splits throughout his career, so he should have no problem while hitting from the left side of the plate against Wisler tonight.

Vegas sees the Mets only going for 4.1 runs tonight, but considering that Wisler's last 14.2 innings have yielded 15 runs and 7 home runs, that seems like a modest projection. If New York is able to pile up the runs against Wisler tonight, Cabrera will likely have a lot to do with it while hitting out of the two-hole. He's an intriguing tournament play tonight if fading Story.
