4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 7/26/17
The San Diego Padres always seem to go overlooked, but Wil Myers and crew could post a big night at home. Who else makes for a strong sleeper play?

Marco Estrada, SP, Toronto Blue Jays

FanDuel Price: $7,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Carlos Carrasco and the Cleveland Indians are heavy favorites tonight (moneyline -214). He's the second-highest priced pitcher on the slate, and, in racking up 33.9-plus FanDuel points in each of his last four starts, should be heavily owned.

After struggling to post more than 16 points in any of his last four outings, and owning a ghastly 5.52 ERA this season, Marco Estrada isn't likely to be as popular.

Why You Should Use Him:

That ERA is ugly, but Estrada's 4.37 SIERA shows he's probably bit a bit unlucky.

One positive for Estrada is that he's continued to generate a high amount of swings and misses -- he owns a 24.4% strikeout rate and a 11.5% swinging-strike rate.

Luckily for Estrada, he will face an Oakland Athletics that strikes out 25.3% of the time. At a low price point, Estrada could make for a quality investment.
