4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 9/23/16
Jeremy Hellickson, P, Philadelphia Phillies
FanDuel Price: $7,600
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
Facing a hard-charging New York Mets team challenging for a Wild Card spot, the Philadelphia Phillies are large underdogs at -164. As a result, Jeremy Hellickson should see low ownership on Friday.
Why You Should Use Him:
Hellickson has been fantastic in his last two starts, allowing no earned runs over his last 15 1/3 innings pitched.
He's logged a pretty strong 4.11 SIERA in 2016 on the strength of a healthy 40.6% ground ball rate.
A further dive into Hellickson's batted ball profile reveals a low 25.5% hard-hit rate, and he has only allowed 0.95 home runs per nine innings pitched in the second half.
