3 MLB FanDuel Studs to Target on 9/29/17
With an absurd .525 wOBA against southpaws, Nolan Arenado offers elite upside at Coors Field against Hyun-Jin Ryu. What other high-priced MLB players should be on your radar in daily fantasy baseball on Friday?

Trevor Bauer, P, Cleveland Indians

Price: $9,000

Pitching is tough to tackle tonight, as there are so many teams that don't have much to play for today and likely won't push their starters. Stephen Strasburg would usually be the day's top option, but he threw only 84 pitches in his last start, and the Washington Nationals are likely to once again keep his workload to a minimum with the playoffs looming.

Trevor Bauer has some risk -- the Cleveland Indians also don't have anything on the line tonight -- but they just let Carlos Carrasco deal 8 1/3 innings Thursday, so there's a decent chance the Chicago White Sox see a healthy dose of Bauer here.

Armed with a 3.84 SIERA this year, Bauer is an appealing fantasy option because of that 26.0% strikeout rate of his. The White Sox are a dreamy matchup for righties, with their active roster sitting among the bottom 10 in wRC+ (91) while striking out at the third-highest rate in the majors (24.4%).
