Mike Napoli, 1B, Cleveland Indians

FanDuel Price: $3,700

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Anthony Rizzo, Edwin Encarnacion, and Chris Davis all are flashier names and find themselves in great position for production tonight, which will almost certainly leave Mike Napoli underowned.

Why You Should Use Him:

Napoli has been crushing the ball recently, averaging 16.4 FanDuel points over his past 10 games. Over the last two weeks, Napoli has a .446 wOBA, .471 ISO, .745 slugging percentage, and 44.1 percent hard-hit rate. Seven of his 14 homers have come in that 14-game stretch.

He gets a matchup against lefty Wade Miley tonight, which offers him an opportunity to remain hot. Miley has a 5.85 ERA on the season and has given up 12 home runs in 11 games. He's also allowed righties to post better numbers against him in his career.

Napoli, a righty, has destroyed left-handed pitching throughout his career, boasting a 36.6 percent hard-hit rate and improved peripherals across the board against them. He has an obscene 47.2 percent hard-hit rate against lefties this season.

Let others take the bigger names at first base today. Napoli has just as much upside as any of them and will come at lower ownership, making him one of the best tournament options available.
