Derek Norris, C, San Diego Padres

FanDuel Price: $3,200

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Whoever starts at catcher for Arizona will likely be the most popular play of the day, followed by Derek Norris and Stephen Vogt.

Why You Should Use Him:

Norris has posted impressive numbers for any catcher this season -- especially for one playing half of his games at Petco. He will be freed of Petco's confinement tonight, though, and will join the previously mentioned Matt Kemp at the Great American Ballpark, home of the fifth-highest home run park factor over the past three seasons.

Also similar to Kemp, Norris hits left-handed pitching much better and should have no problem with John Lamb tonight.

Norris' upside is as high as any catcher on the slate, but his ownership is unlikely to reflect that tonight. Give him a long look in tournaments.
