MLB DFS Picks for 6/3/26: Daily Fantasy Baseball Strategy and Tips For FanDuel, DraftKings

Willy Adames - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Waiver Wire Targets

Casey Wilson's top DraftKings and FanDuel MLB DFS picks for today, Wednesday, 6/3/26. His favorite daily fantasy baseball lineup sleepers and value picks for DFS on DraftKings and FanDuel.

We have a split slate tonight with two extra games on FanDuel than on DraftKings. This does make a big difference because Payton Tolle on FanDuel is an elite play. We have been hot in these articles, nailing our hitter core plays yesterday with two home runs. Lets dig in tonight.

If you have not had a chance to check out my model, I will refer to it throughout this article. To get a better sense of where I am, not only on today's slate but on every slate, please give it a look. My plays are solely based on numbers, and this model is the brain behind the operation. I have also created a hitter model that is not public, but I will reference it in this article.

This article will provide my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 6/3/2026, with the slate starting at 7:05 p.m. ET on DraftKings and 6:40 p.m. ET FanDuel. The lineup picks will showcase elite players, mid-priced options, and value plays. You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for other sports here. Monitoring injury news and today's MLB starting lineups is always essential.

 

Top MLB DFS Pitcher for DraftKings, FanDuel

Chase Burns, SP - CIN ($10.0K DK/$11.0K FD)

You cannot ignore this man anymore. Chase Burns has fully arrived, and I have been telling everyone this for over a year now. He is, in my opinion, a top-3 pitcher in baseball, and I will continue to play him on every slate until the public catches up.

He has been tremendous this season, but has turned it on as of late. He has a 1.95 xFIP, 40.5% K%, 15.3% SwStr%, and a 0.79 WHIP over his last two starts. He has a 28.0% projected K% with 6.33 strikeouts in this matchup.

The Royals have struggled mightily this season against RHP in 2026. They have a 22.0% K%, .688 OPS, and a 91 wRC+ this season. Over their L14 days, they have a .576 OPS and a 59 wRC+ against RHP. They have a 3.5 implied run total in my model, one of the best-hitting parks in the big leagues, which tells you everything. Fire up, Burns.

 

Top MLB DFS Stack for DraftKings, FanDuel

Los Angeles Dodgers (Model-Projected IRT of 6.0 runs) vs. Zac Gallen

The Dodgers are heating up, and yesterday they gave Michael Soroka and this Diamondbacks team fits. They have a 6.0 implied run total in my model tonight on the road at Chase Field. They are my top stack in both models.

Zac Gallen has struggled, to say the least, in 2026. He has pitched to a 4.36 xFIP, 1.47 WHIP, 1.52 HR/9, and a 51.3% Hard Hit% this season. He has a 1.65 WHIP, 2.61 HR/9, 41.2% FB%, and a 41.2% Hard Hit% over his L14.

The Dodgers are on fire at the moment. They have a .850 OPS and a 136 wRC+ against RHP over their L14. Gallen has struggled mightily with LHH this season, and the Dodgers are full of lefties to take advantage of his splits.

Favorite Targets: Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Alex Freeland, Andy Pages, Will Smith

 

Top MLB DFS Hitter for DraftKings, FanDuel

Ernie Clement, 2B/SS/3B/1B (FD Only) - TOR ($3.6K DK/$2.8K FD)

Ernie Clement is red hot at the moment and gets a matchup with Grant Holmes, who has allowed a ton of hard contact and home runs as of late. Holmes has allowed a .396 wOBA, .308 ISO, and a 1.011 OPS against RHH over his last two starts. Clement has a .503 wOBA, .306 ISO, and a 1.170 OPS during that span. His position versatility allows us to play him anywhere in our lineups.
