Tzu-Wei Lin, SS, Boston Red Sox

FanDuel Price: $2,000

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

If he can shake off the after-effects of a nasty collision at home yesterday, Carlos Correa is probably the chalky play at shortstop. His .403 wOBA and platoon advantage against Jaime Garcia could produce some crooked point totals.

Not even an option on FanDuel until recently, Boston Red Sox rookie shortstop Tzu-Wei Lin will probably see low ownership rates.

Why You Should Use Him:

With only 29 plate appearances to his name, many could be wondering just who this rookie shortstop is. But if he keeps this recent run of play going, people won't be wondering for too much longer.

Albeit in a small sample, Lin has more than held his own, recording a .360 batting average and a 10.3% walk rate. He's also recorded two three-hit games to his name so far.

And with a date against Andrew Cashner and his 5.73 SIERA, the Red Sox make for a strong play. Lefties have been a large culprit in that inflated skill-interactive mark, as they've posted a 30.1% hard-hit rate and a 39.1% fly-ball rate.

At site minimum pricing but part of an offense that's racked up 33 runs in the last 3 games, Lin deserves some attention.
