3 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 6/22/17
Tyler Flowers has continued to sizzle for Atlanta and has a great matchup tonight. Who else makes for a great sleeper play?

Tyler Flowers, C, Atlanta Braves

FanDuel Price: $3,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Hitting .366 on the season against left-handed pitching, including a 1.022 OPS, Buster Posey is likely to see a ton of ownership against Jaime Garcia in Atlanta.

Despite a robust start to his season with a .395 wOBA, Tyler Flowers is often a forgotten option at the catcher position. With bats like Posey and Gary Sanchez, he'll probably get overlooked this evening.

Why You Should Use Him:

Flowers' numbers are no fluke, and he will look to amp them up against veteran Matt Cain at home.

Cain has struggled this year, and same-sided righties have been a real thorn in his side. They've posted a .353 wOBA against him, including a 31.0% hard-hit rate and a 37.8% fly-ball rate.

Flowers, meanwhile, just happens to do his best work against righties. He's posted a 148 wRC+ against them this year, including a .922 OPS and .169 ISO.

Flowers makes for a nice pivot option with potential for a big evening on tap.
