FanDuel Price: $8,400
Why He Will Go Overlooked:
On tonight's small slate, the pitching options are top-notch. Madison Bumgarner makes another start after his shoulder injury, and Luis Severino, Cole Hamels, and Michael Fulmer all top $9,000, and should be popular options.
Sporting a career-worst 21.0% strikeout rate, Felix Hernandez of the Seattle Mariners faces one of the best offenses in the league in the New York Yankees (fourth in team wOBA at .335), and is not likely to see high ownership rates.
Why You Should Use Him:
While some peripherals aren't the greatest for King Felix, there's some optimism from a DFS perspective in starting Hernandez today.
The Yankees have been a very strong offense, but over the last two weeks, they've shown some warts. They rank 26th in team wOBA (.279) while striking out a very hefty 25.9% of the time.
The Mariners righty has come back nicely from the disabled list, and he's recorded a swinging-strike rate of 9.0% or greater in each of his last three starts.
On paper, this looks like a daunting matchup, but King Felix could be in for a huge night.
