FanDuel Price: $6,700
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
In a reduced slate, there are limited options available. With studs David Price and Justin Verlander taking the mound and Seth Lugo a heavy favorite at -205 on the moneyline, Ricky Nolasco and his pedestrian 17.7% strikeout rate is sure to be ignored.
Why You Should Use Him:
Nolasco has been quietly impressive in September, sporting a 3.32 ERA and .249 wOBA allowed.
Nolasco has also put up two 50-plus-point outings in his last four starts, and while he doesn't strike out a ton of batters, the Houston Astros strike out at the fourth-highest rate in Major League Baseball (23.6%).
Over the last 14 days, the Astros have been pretty mediocre on offense, ranking 24th in league with a .286 wOBA. All of this leads to a sneaky matchup for Nolasco.
