Mike Zunino, C, Seattle Mariners

FanDuel Price: $2,600

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Struggling through a tough September with a .626 OPS and a paltry implied team total of 3.85 runs, Mike Zunino should see low ownership on Monday.

Why You Should Use Him:

Many daily fantasy players consider Zunino a platoon play against left-handed pitching due to his elite numbers, but he's got a great opportunity against Collin McHugh.

McHugh struggles mightily against same-sided righties, and the Seattle Mariners boast a lineup that doesn't feature many. McHugh, for the season, has allowed a .483 slugging percentage and 14 home runs to righties in 392 plate appearances.

Zunino, meanwhile, has possessed elite power this season, showcasing a .323 ISO. At a low price point, Zunino will give you cheap exposure with high upside potential to a volatile pitcher.
