Chase Headley, 3B, New York Yankees

FanDuel Price: $3,400

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Two third basemen on the slate are in fantastic matchups. The first is Manny Machado, who will hit in Great American Ballpark against lefty Amir Garrett. While Garrett has been sensational to start the season, Machado sported a .919 OPS with a .197 isolated slugging (ISO) last season against southpaws.

The other is Eugenio Suarez, who is an expensive option that's been on a tear -- he's put up 21-plus FanDuel points in three of his last five starts, but was a late scratch Tuesday with a neck issue.

Chase Headley has also been on fire (1.132 OPS and .205 ISO through 54 plate appearances), but fantasy owners and New York Yankees fans haven't forgotten his slow start last year -- he didn't record an extra-base hit in the entire month of April.

Why You Should Use Him:

Headley has a lot of positives for today's matchup -- the first of which is Chicago White Sox rookie starter Dylan Covey. He produced a strong debut, but it was not without warts -- Covey recorded only a 3.3% swinging-strike rate in that first outing and a 90.6% contact rate.

With all those balls in play, pitching at Yankee Stadium may be tough for the rookie. Over the last three years, Yankee Stadium ranks first in home run factor.
