Logan Forsythe, 2B, Los Angeles Dodgers

FanDuel Price: $2,200

There's no question Logan Forsythe is having a brutal season, so it might make you a little queasy to see him here, but this could be one of those rare times to give him a shot.

Manny Machado and the new-look Los Angeles Dodgers have an appealing matchup against left-hander Wade Miley, and while they might not garner the ownership of popular teams like the Cleveland Indians or Boston Red Sox, they should still receive a fair amount of attention. Over 11 1/3 innings, Miley has only managed a 5.86 SIERA, 18.0% walk rate, and 50.0% hard-hit rate, and prior to this season, he's put up a putrid 5.48 ERA over the last 2 years (323 1/3 innings).

Meanwhile, for as poorly as Forsythe has performed, he's still producing a 40.0% hard-hit rate and 41.8% fly-ball rate versus lefties, and owns a career 122 wRC+ against them. We're not necessarily expecting any miracles here, but against a weak pitcher in Miller Park, there could be a potential reward in using Forsythe as a cheap fourth addition to your Dodgers stack.
