FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (9/2/16): MLB DFS Advice

After that brief four-game slate yesterday, the monster of a slate tonight is a breath of fresh air. It is baseball time again. The Arizona Diamondbacks are traveling into Colorado to face off against the Rockies, so obviously, keep an eye on that game. Who else makes for a great stack? Read on to find out.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball MLB lineup picks for FanDuel on 9/2/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from high-priced to low-priced options and identify options who will out-perform their expectations, including sleepers and value plays on FanDuel.

Editor's Note: Purchase a full season NFL Premium Pass (including Draft Kit + DFS Premium), and also get MLB Premium + DFS for free through October. Premium DFS lineup picks, expert lineups, tools and more - seven days a week. You can see screenshots of our NFL Premium and MLB Premium and DFS tools. What are you waiting for?

 

DFS Lineup Stacks to Target for FanDuel

Cincinnati Reds

The Cincinnati Reds are one of the better hitting teams in baseball when at home, which is why their matchup tonight against the St. Louis Cardinals and Alex Reyes is so enticing. The Reds have a ton of power and upside, and Reyes is not one of the better pitchers on the board tonight, let alone in the league. Stack the Reds in all formats.

Arizona Diamondbacks

The Arizona Diamondbacks are headed into Colorado to take on the Rockies in Coors Field. Coors Field is known for high scores and home runs. The Diamondbacks have a lot of power. Does more need to be said?

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers get a great matchup tonight against the San Diego Padres and Clayton Richard. Richard looked solid in two straight games now, but he tends to struggle more often than not. In Los Angeles, the Dodgers should be able to do some damage.

 

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider for FanDuel

David Price ($10,300)

In his last two starts, David Price has 45 and 60 fantasy points, which is great, even considering his rising price tag. He gets another great matchup tonight against the Oakland Athletics, and he should be able to at least come close to value. The Red Sox will likely win this game, which is a huge bonus on FanDuel. Use Price in all leagues.

Julio Urias ($8,400)

Julio Urias is very cheap, if taking his recent production into consideration. He has 51 and 48 fantasy points in his last two starts, and he should be able to handle the San Diego Padres tonight. This is a no-brainer.

 

DFS Infielders to Consider for FanDuel

Catcher (C) - Nick Hundley ($3,200)

Nick Hundley is nothing special at the plate. Everyone knows that; even Colorado fans. However, the ball flies in Coors Field, and Hundley is semi-cheap, especially for a player with huge upside. Use him in tournaments for the most part due to his low price tag.

First Base (1B) - Hanley Ramirez ($3,700)

Hanley Ramirez has been hammering the ball of recent. He has two home runs in his last two games, and of recent, he is actually hitting as good, if not better, than Big Papi (David Ortiz). He can be used in both 50/50 contests and tournaments tonight against the Oakland Athletics and Triggs.

Second Base (2B) - Chase Utley ($2,800)

Chase Utley is very cheap on FanDuel. In his last 10 games, he has over 10 fantasy points in four games, which goes to show his upside. The Dodgers are likely going to score quite a few runs tonight against Clayton Richard, and Utley can be used in tournaments without hesitation.

Shortstop (SS) - Asdrubal Cabrera ($2,900)

Asdrubal Cabrera has some of the best upside in the league right now, and his price tag definitely does not reflect that. The New York Mets are on fire, and while Cabrera does struggle from game to game, he also has the ability to hit two home runs in one night. He has proven that he has elite upside for a shortstop. Use him in tournaments.

Third Base (3B) - Jedd Gyorko ($3,300)

Speaking of elite upside, Jedd Gyorko has five home runs in his last 10 games, which is incredible considering his price tag. His power is through the roof, and he is hitting in Cincinnati, which is great for power hitters. See where this is going?

 

DFS Outfielders to Consider for FanDuel

Mark Trumbo ($3,300)

Mark Trumbo is a bit too cheap on FanDuel. He gets a great matchup at home against the New York Yankees, and he is a home run hitting machine. When he makes contact, the ball flies. That is great to have at a cheap price in tournaments.

Ender Inciarte ($3,100)

Ender Inciarte is one of the most consistent hitters in the league right now, and he will continue to play well tonight against the Philadelphia Phillies. He can be used in 50/50 contests, especially since his price tag is significantly too low on FanDuel.
