3 Under-the-Radar MLB FanDuel Plays for 9/14/18
Michael Conforto is enjoying a strong second half, and is worth a look at Fenway Park tonight. Who else can we consider in tournaments on Friday night?

Jose Abreu, 1B, Chicago White Sox

FanDuel Price: $3,600

Stacking an offense like the Chicago White Sox on a full slate is a risky move, but they might be worth considering against Luis Ortiz.

Ortiz is making just his second big league start, and the first one didn't exactly go swimmingly, as Ortiz lasted just two-thirds of an inning while allowing three earned runs and registering no punchouts. It's not like he was tearing it up in Triple-A, either, with a 4.50 FIP and 15.6% strikeout rate over six starts.

Similar to the Mets' situation, the White Sox may garner some ownership for their value plays, but someone like Jose Abreu isn't likely to be very popular. Chicago's best hitter, Abreu has a solid .373 xwOBA and .200 ISO against righties this season, and over his career he owns an excellent 132 wRC+ in the split.

The rest of Chicago's lineup is cheap, so you can easily stack multiple bats while still rostering tonight's top arm, Max Scherzer. They're showing a 4.85 implied total at Camden Yards, the fourth-best of the slate.
