5 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 6/22/16
Robbie Grossman, OF, Minnesota Twins
FanDuel Price: $3,000
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
Ian Desmond and Matt Kemp will likely be popular plays, with the rest of the outfield ownership spread among Baltimore's outfield. The Twins actually have one of the highest implied team totals but are rarely popular in daily fantasy. With the other options available, Robbie Grossman likely won't be overly popular.
Why You Should Use Him:
Grossman has looked right at home hitting near the top of the order for the Twins, posting a .432 on-base percentage, which is the highest among players with at least 100 at-bats.
He should have plenty of opportunities to get on base tonight against lefty Adam Morgan. Morgan has a 6.49 ERA on the year and has given up at least six runs in four of his last seven starts. Not great, Bob!
The Twins are projected for 4.9 runs against Morgan tonight, the third-most on the slate. It's hard to envision them scoring that much and Grossman not being involved while hitting out of the two-hole. He is a viable play in all formats tonight.
