4 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 4/20/17
Noah Syndergaard, P, New York Mets
Price: $11,200
Just about everything is working in Noah Syndergaard's favor today.
The New York Mets are the biggest favorites on the slate (-173 moneyline), the Philadelphia Phillies' 2.84 implied total is the lowest and he'll be pitching at one of the more pitcher-friendly parks in Citi Field.
The Phillies rank only 19th in wRC+ against right-handed pitching to start the season, while also owning the 7th-highest strikeout rate. Bringing those numbers into a matchup with Syndergaard -- who has a 2.04 SIERA and 27.4% strikeout rate through three starts after posting a 2.95 SIERA and 29.3% strikeout rate last season -- creates a pretty ideal situation for fantasy production, and Syndergaard is easily the day's top pitching option.
