4 Under-the-Radar Daily Fantasy Baseball Plays for 9/1/17
Facing struggling arm Nick Pivetta, Tyler Moore could make for a strong play. Who else profiles as a solid sleeper?

Tyler Moore, 1B, Miami Marlins

FanDuel Price: $2,000

Why He Will Go Overlooked:

Sporting an .896 OPS at home versus righties, and priced down to $3,000, Eric Thames of the Milwaukee Brewers is likely to be a popular play against Tanner Roark. Thames already has 22 long balls against opposite-handed pitchers, and Roark's allowed 1.69 homers per nine innings pitched this season.

With only 175 plate appearances and a .275 wOBA to his stat line this year, Tyler Moore is could be ignored.

Why You Should Use Him:

With Justin Bour shelved due to an injury, Moore has been seeing more playing time, and he's primed for a big night on Friday.

He will face rookie Nick Pivetta, who's got plenty of heat in his arsenal, but has struggled otherwise. Pivetta's thrown 100 innings for the Phillies this year, posting a 6.57 ERA.

Righties have jacked up Pivetta for a .423 wOBA, 44.9% hard-hit rate, and 41.8% fly-ball rate.

At the FanDuel minimum, Moore could make for an interesting play.
