4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 9/13/16
Ivan Nova, P, Pittsburgh Pirates
FanDuel Price: $7,300
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
With the Toronto Blue Jays and still-too-cheap Marcus Stroman installed as heavy -190 favorites on the moneyline and Noah Syndergaard taking the ball for the New York Mets, Ivan Nova should go largely overlooked.
Why You Should Use Him:
Nova has been brilliant since coming over to the Pittsburgh Pirates, logging a 2.53 ERA and 0.93 WHIP. He has also fired two complete games in his last four starts.
Nova has shown elite control, cutting down on the walks under Ray Searage's tutelage. He's issued just two free passes over 46 1/3 innings pitched.
In his seven starts with Pittsburgh, Nova only has one effort under 30 FanDuel points. He makes for a nice tournament pivot for his clash with a Philadelphia Phillies squad that boasts an implied team total of only 3.66 runs.
