3 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 9/18/16
Even in a tough matchup, Ryan Braun offers huge upside, and his low salary is very enticing. Who else can provide solid fantasy production at a discount price?

Josh Bell, 1B, Pittsburgh Pirates

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Josh Bell continues to impress in his rookie season. He is slashing .326/.429/.488 with a huge .395 wOBA through 105 plate appearances. Today's matchup puts him in a good spot to build on that success as he takes on Dan Straily.

While Straily's 3.81 ERA is a career-best mark, he's still sporting an ugly 4.67 SIERA, which is well above his (also uninspiring) 4.48 career SIERA.

Straily has an especially bad 5.61 xFIP against left-handed hitters this year, and the switch-hitting Bell could give him fits today. As a plus, the game is at the hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park, which ranks fifth in home run factor.
