3 Under-the-Radar MLB FanDuel Plays for 6/20/18
Joey Gallo is always a boom-or-bust option, but he could be primed for a dinger in a solid spot against Jakob Junis tonight.

Andrew Benintendi, OF, Boston Red Sox

FanDuel Price: $4,700

This is a tough price to pay on a Coors Field night, but it's all the more reason Andrew Benintendi should go low-owned in a good spot against Lance Lynn. Lynn has always struggled against lefties, and this year is more of the same, allowing a .383 expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA) and 42.5% hard-hit rate.

The Boston Red Sox are showing a worthwhile 4.85 implied team total.

Meanwhile, Benintendi has been a beast in 2018, posting a .403 xwOBA, .246 isolated power (ISO), and 13.5% strikeout rate against right-handed pitching. He also brings added upside with his speed (12 stolen bases), and it doesn't hurt to bat near the top of a lineup that features stalwarts like Mookie Betts and J.D. Martinez. Few will be on Benintendi, and the dangerous Red Sox are always capable of piling up the runs.
