    The San Francisco Giants will look to avoid the sweep against the Dodgers on Sunday. The Giants will have Trevor McDonald on the mound against Emmet Sheehan. The Giants are currently 4.0 games back of the Wild Card and must play with a sense of urgency if they want to make it into the postseason, but another loss could put a dent in those chances as teams like the Reds who are ahead of them, have a four game winning streak, while the Marlins, who are just behind the Giants are on a five game winning streak. The Giants offense must get going early off Sheehan on Sunday if they want to beat the Dodgers and avoid the sweep.

    Here is who to target from the Giants:

    Outfielder Heliot Ramos ($3,800):

    Ramos has faced Sheehan twice and was able to notch a hit against him, whereas the rest of the Giants have gone a combined 1-for-15 against Sheehan. In this series, Ramos has been able to get three hits, two runs, one home-run, one run batted in, and was able to draw two walks thus far. He has been on base in each of those games. He is a safe bet to get on base on Sunday, and at that price tag, he could be a low-risk, high-reward option. 

    Catcher Patrick Bailey ($2,700):

    Bailey is a value pick on Sunday. He was the only other batter on the Giants who was able to get a hit off of Sheehan in the past, going 1-for-4, thus far against the Dodgers pitcher. In September, Bailey has maintained a .273 batting average, garnering 15 hits, 10 runs, four home-runs, and 13 runs batted in 17 games, thus far. As a switch-batter, Bailey has a higher batting average against right-handed pitchers (.221) than left-handed pitchers (.207), so if you don't want to spend too much at the catcher position, add Bailey to your lineup for Sunday's slate. 

    Outfielder Jung Hoo Lee ($3,400):

    Lee has gone 0-for-2 against Sheehan, but against a right-handed pitcher, at that price point, Lee should be in DFS lineups for Sunday's slate. In the month of September, Lee has been batting .300 on average, and garnered two hits in Saturday's outing, after getting the day off on Friday. Lee should be able to get on base and/or drive in a run on Sunday. He should be on DFS players' radar for the afternoon slate.
