Zack Cozart, SS, Cincinnati Reds

FanDuel Price: $3,300

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Jean Segura of the Seattle Mariners is absolutely on fire -- he's posting an average of 14.0 FanDuel points per game this season, and is coming off a recent hot streak where he posted 12.0-plus FanDuel points in four consecutive contests. Tonight's contest at the hitter-friendly Rogers Centre should continue to boost Segura ownership.

Despite being off to a strong start offensively as a team, the Cincinnati Reds continue to go overlooked, including shortstop Zack Cozart. And Thursday should be no different -- the Reds sport one of the lowest implied team totals on the slate at 3.81 runs.

Why You Should Use Him:

Ignoring the Reds would be a bad idea, as they will face rookie Ty Blach of the San Francisco Giants, who's been really bad filling in for the injured Madison Bumgarner.

While the sample size is small, Blach has posted a bleak 5.99 SIERA while working as both a starter and a reliever in 20 2/3 innings pitched. This year, Blach is actually walking hitters (7.7%) more than he is striking them out (5.5%).

When the ball is in play, righties are blasting him to the tune of a .359 wOBA and an absurd .509 slugging percentage.

Cozart, who is still at a relatively cheap price point, has posted an impressive .432 wOBA to start the year, and gives some exposure to a great matchup.
