4 Under-the-Radar FanDuel MLB Plays for 8/25/16
Facing Max Scherzer, Chris Davis will likely be overlooked on Wednesday. What other players make for quality under-the-radar options?

Chris Davis, 1B, Baltimore Orioles

FanDuel Price: $3,700

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Facing ace Max Scherzer and his 31.6% strikeout rate, the Baltimore Orioles hitters, including Chris Davis, are bound to go overlooked.

Why You Should Use Him:

Davis has been absolutely on fire. He now has six home runs in his last seven games and is averaging 15.6 FanDuel points per game over his last 10 contests.

One bugaboo for Scherzer has been the long ball. His home runs allowed per nine innings is up 22% from 2015, and he's giving up 1.34 home runs per nine innings to lefties.

Combined with Scherzer's xFIP of 4.35 versus left-handed bats, and Davis makes for a quality option.
