Scooter Gennett, 2B, Milwaukee Brewers

FanDuel Price: $3,200

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

The second base position is absolutely loaded on Tuesday. Brian Dozier, Matt Carpenter, and Ian Kinsler all have fantastic platoon matchups, which should lead to low ownership for Scooter Gennett.

Why You Should Use Him:

Gennett and the Milwaukee Brewers are set to face Adam Wainwright. The St. Louis Cardinals righty is having a rough season. He is allowing a career-worst 31.3% hard-hit rate in 2016 while only posting an 18.4% strikeout rate. Wainwright has especially struggled in the second half of this year, logging a 4.43 xFIP, including a 5.29 xFIP during August.

Wainwright is allowing a .461 slugging percentage and .357 wOBA to left-handed hitters, making Gennett a great option.
