4 FanDuel MLB Studs to Target on 8/17/16
Carlos Carrasco, P, Cleveland Indians
FanDuel Price: $9,800
Carlos Carrasco is our top-ranked hurler for his home matchup with the Chicago White Sox. Carrasco, who is averaging 43.5 FanDuel points per game over his last two outings, is turning in another good season with a 3.73 SIERA, 23.6% strikeout rate, and 6.8% walk rate.
Carrasco’s strikeout rate dips to 18.7% at home this season, but Chicago’s struggling offense should help compensate for that. The White Sox have been particularly poor on the road, ranking 25th in ISO (.141), 22nd in wOBA (.301), and 26th in walk rate (7.0%).
