3 Under-the-Radar MLB FanDuel Plays for 9/19/18

Josh Bell, 1B, Pittsburgh Pirates

FanDuel Price: $3,300

The Pittsburgh Pirates are affordable across the board, so they could draw some ownership against Heath Fillmyer, but they still figure to fall behind more obvious teams like the Cleveland Indians, Milwaukee Brewers, and Toronto Blue Jays.

Although the Pirates don't have the most powerful offense, their matchup against Fillmyer is one of the slate's best. Fillmyer checks all the boxes we want to see, with a poor 5.14 SIERA, 14.8% strikeout rate, 10.3% walk rate, and 40.0% hard-hit rate allowed.

Josh Bell isn't often a guy we look to, but he's batting third again tonight, and owns a solid career 114 wRC+ against right-handed pitching. He's also ending the season on a high note, producing a 58.8% hard-hit rate, .460 xwOBA, and .227 ISO in September. Stacking Bell and the Pirates could be a lucrative move in tournaments tonight.
