Carlos Rodon, P, Chicago WhiteSox

FanDuel Price: $8,100

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Carlos Rodon has been a bit up and down, sporting a 4.07 SIERA in 116.1 innings. In addition, righties have really gotten to him, as he's allowed a .484 slugging percentage, .361 wOBA and 4.50 xFIP to right-handed sticks. Also, as antiquated as the stat is, Rodon has only logged three wins on the year to go against eight losses.

Why You Should Use Him:

Rodon has really turned things on in the second half of the season. He's sporting a 3.31 xFIP while while maintaining a strikeout rate of 22.8%.

The Phillies sport one of the worst offenses in baseball against left-handed pitching, ranking 28th in wOBA (.288) and owning the sixth-worst strikeout rate (22.8%).

The White Sox are pretty big favorites (-157 money line), so Rodon has a good chance to pick up the victory.
