FanDuel DFS Pitchers

Luis Severino - P, at PHI ($10,600)

Severino has been enjoying an elite season, posting an 11-2 record with a 2.24 ERA and a 0.97 WHIP. He also owns a 10.6 K/9 through 104.2 innings. Severino will be be throwing in a hitter friendly stadium, but the Philadelphia Phillies have struggled at times this season. Severino is currently a -201 favorite in a game set at only 7.5 runs, and he can be used in all leagues.

Freddy Peralta - P, vs KC ($7,700)

Peralta has only started three games this season, but he has looked outstanding in those games. He currently boasts a 2-0 record with a 2.30 ERA and a 0.89 ERA. He has displayed tremendous strikeout potential, recording 25 strikeouts through 15.2 innings. He gets a great matchup against the Kansas City Royals, and Peralta is a -208 favorite in a game set at 8 runs. He's a great salary relief option tonight.

 

FanDuel DFS Infielders

Eric Thames - C/1B, vs KC ($3,900)

Thames has been a more consistent and a more powerful hitter at home this season. He has also been a significantly better option against right-handed pitching, possessing 0.185 wOBA and 0.266 ISO differentials against righties. He gets a solid matchup against Jake Junis tonight, and Thames makes a high upside tournament option.

Jason Kipnis - 2B, at STL ($3,100)

Kipnis has been heating up over his last 10 games, posting a .286 average with four extra-base hits (three home runs) and six RBIs. He also owns 43% hard-hit and 50% fly ball rates with a 95 mph exit velocity over the last 15 days. Kipnis still comes with a surprisingly low price tag, and he can be used in all leagues.

Jose Ramirez - 3B, at SLT ($5,200)

Ramirez continues to play at an elite level. Over his last 10 games, he's hitting .313 with a .688 slugging percentage and a 1.188 OPS. He's a more powerful option against right-handed pitching, although he does get a tough matchup against Carlos Martinez. Ramirez is a player that has been hitting well enough to be considered in all leagues.

Kike Hernandez - SS, vs CHC ($2,700)

Hernandez has caught fire over his last 10 games, and he's a player that always starts against left-handed pitching. He owns a .500 slugging percentage and a .256 ISO against left-handed pitching this season, and Hernandez is expected to lead off against Jon Lester tonight. Hernandez is an option that can safely be used in all leagues for his current price tag.

 

FanDuel DFS Outfielders

Scott Schebler - OF, at ATL ($3,600)

Schebler has cooled down recently, but he continues to be a consistent option with tremendous upside on a nearly nightly basis. He owns a .357 average with a .643 slugging percentage and a 1.000 OPS through four games against Atlanta this season. Schebler will be playing in a stadium designed for left-handed batters, and he can be considered in all leagues tonight.

Robbie Grossman - OF, at CWS ($2,500)

Grossman has scored fantasy points in 12 of his last 15 games, including four games with double digit fantasy points. He has also found success on the road this season, where he's hitting .274 with a .384 slugging percentage and a .729 OPS. He gets a good matchup against Reynaldo Lopez, and Grossman makes a solid salary relief option.
