3 Under-the-Radar MLB FanDuel Plays for 5/4/18

Garrett Richards, SP, Los Angeles Angels

FanDuel Price: $7,300

Those paying down at pitcher will look at young guns Walker Buehler and Jose Berrios, with Buehler in particular likely garnering solid ownership in tournaments against the San Diego Padres.

But don't forget about Garrett Richards against the Seattle Mariners. Richards is no slouch with a 29.1% strikeout rate and 55.7% ground-ball rate. The matchup against the Mariners is mediocre at best, and Richards' 15.0% walk rate shows the risk, but he's also demonstrated an impressive ceiling this season with a 55-point FanDuel performance on his resume.

Not only will he presumably go low-owned, but he's actually cheaper than either Buehler and Berrios, giving that much more wiggle room for your bats. That could go a long way if you want to stack the many expensive hitters on teams like the Yankees, Astros, and Red Sox.
