4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 5/2/17
Brandon Phillips is enjoying a nice renaissance and has a great opportunity to continue producing on Tuesday. Who else is poised for a big night and could go overlooked?

Jose Quintana, SP, Chicago White Sox

FanDuel Price: $8,700

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

It's that day of the week where ace pitchers are everywhere. Chris Sale and his regained strikeout ability take the hill, along with Corey Kluber and Justin Verlander matching up in Detroit, while James Paxton looks to build on his impressive start and Carlos Martinez hopes a new haircut can help bring better production.

One player that's started a bit slowly, but picked up the pace recently is Jose Quintana of the Chicago White Sox.

Why You Should Use Him:

While Quintana has his worts and may only hold a 1-4 record, he's shown some signs of life recently.

He's posted back-to-back quality starts, and what's really grabbed the attention for fantasy players are his strikeouts. Quintana's strikeout rate currently stands at a career-best 23.3%, and it's been even better over his last two starts -- he's whiffed 16 of 49 batters faced, which is good for an eye-popping 32.7% rate.

Combine that with the Kansas City Royals league-worst .272 wOBA, and you have all the makings of a big fantasy day.
