3 Under-the-Radar MLB FanDuel Plays for 8/21/18
The Dodgers figure to fly under the radar tonight, but don't rule out Justin Turner getting the job done against Daniel Poncedeleon​. Who else is an appealing target in tournaments?

Justin Smoak, 1B, Toronto Blue Jays

FanDuel Price: $3,500

Kendrys Morales remains cheap, and particularly after launching two bombs on Monday, he figures to be a popular value play tonight against Dylan Bundy.

But don't forget about teammate Justin Smoak, who's producing an excellent 38.2% hard-hit rate, 49.7% fly-ball rate, .245 ISO, and .408 xwOBA against right-handers this year. Just like Morales, Smoak will also benefit from Bundy's horrific woes against batters from the left side as he's allowing a .398 xwOBA to lefties with an unimposing 19.4% strikeout rate.

Excluding Morales, the Toronto Blue Jays shouldn't garner as much ownership as tonight's chalk teams, so you could make a solid tournament stack led by the two first basemen and left-handed leadoff man Curtis Granderson.
