4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 9/28/16
Jose De Leon's ugly 5.52 ERA may cause him to see less ownership than his peripherals say he should.

Kole Calhoun, OF, Los Angeles Angels

FanDuel Price: $3,300

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Struggling to a .722 OPS in the second half and with several sluggers like Carlos Beltran, Yoenis Cespedes and Jose Bautista in great spots, Kole Calhoun is unlikely to see much ownership.

Why You Should Use Him:

Sonny Gray returns from an elbow injury, but he is slated to make a limited return. Should Calhoun see multiple at bats against Gray, he will face a pitcher who has struggled with the long ball this year, allowing 1.40 home runs per nine innings.

The Athletics, meanwhile, sport the 11th-worst bullpen ERA in the league at 4.01, so the Halos will be in a nice spot even if Gray exits early.

Calhoun has picked up his production in September with a 128 wRC+ this month, and he could make for a nice value play.
