4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 9/23/16
Albert Pujols has a great matchup against Doug Fister in his personal playground of Minute Maid Park.

Albert Pujols, 1B, Los Angeles Angels

FanDuel Price: $3,000

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

While it's always a loaded position and one that seems hard to have a whole lot of hidden value, first base has a good option today. Albert Pujols ranks as the 23rd-most expensive first base option on Friday. With a mediocre implied team total of 4.08 runs, Pujols should be largely ignored.

Why You Should Use Him:

The Los Angeles Angels will take aim at Doug Fister, who's struggled through 2016 with a tough 5.16 SIERA.

Fister's lost his last four decisions, and he's allowed 1.19 home runs per nine innings pitched on the year.

Pujols, meanwhile, has turned his play up in the second half, logging an .809 OPS and .213 ISO, along with 5 home runs in September.

Priced too low at $3,000, Pujols makes for a great value play at first base.
