FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/15/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

We've got a 10-game Wednesday night slate and based on the pitching options available we should see plenty of offense.

Kyle Gibson Allows Four Runs To Cubs In Loss

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Kyle Gibson allowed four runs across five innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Cubs.

One Bad Pitch Dooms Aaron Nola Versus Rockies

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola allowed three runs across 5 1/3 innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Sunday. Another start, another pitching line from Nola that didn't reflect how well he pitched.

Odubel Herrera Drives In Two Versus Rockies

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Odubel Herrera went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in a win over the Rockies on Saturday. Herrera is slashing .261/.316/.424 as he's been a solid bottom-of-the-order bat for the Phillies. He won't provide much power, but Herrera has value in deeper fantasy leagues. He's got good matchups versus the […]

Jean Segura Swats 12th Homer To Help Beat Rockies

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Jean Segura went 2-for-5 with a home run and two runs scored to help secure a win over Colorado on Saturday.

Andrew McCutchen Collects Two Hits In Win Over Rockies

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Andrew McCutchen went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in a win over the Rockies on Saturday.

Brad Miller Launches Pinch-Hit Homer Versus Rockies

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Brad Miller launched a solo home run as a pinch-hitter in his only at-bat versus the Rockies on Saturday.

Andrew Chafin, Sergio Romo Implode For A's On Saturday

Oakland Athletics relief pitchers Andrew Chafin and Sergio Romo combined for one of the worst innings of the season for the A's, as they allowed five runs to turn a feel-good afternoon into a miserable loss.

Matt Olson Homers In Loss To Rangers On Saturday

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson went 1-for-4 with his 33rd homer of the season on Saturday versus the Rangers.

Cole Irvin Whiffs Eight Rangers In No-Decision Saturday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Cole Irvin allowed two runs across seven innings with eight strikeouts against the Rangers on Saturday.

Zack Wheeler Silences Rockies For 13th Win

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler allowed one run across 6 2/3 innings to pick up his 13th victory on Saturday versus Colorado.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: Streaming catcher in fantasy baseball can sometimes feel like a fool's errand, but other times it can lead to hidden gems like Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk. The 22-year-old prospect has been a nice boost to an already lethal Toronto lineup late in the […]

Bryce Harper Belts 30th Homer Of Season On Thursday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper went 2-for-4 with a solo homer in a loss to the Rockies on Thursday.

Ian Kennedy Serves Up Two Homers In Blown Save Versus Rockies

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Ian Kennedy allowed three runs in 2/3 of an inning to take the loss on Thursday versus Colorado.

Ranger Suarez Silences Rockies Over Six Innings

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Ranger Suarez allowed one run across six innings with six strikeouts in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Thursday. Unfortunately for Suarez and fantasy managers, the Phillies bullpen couldn't hold the lead, but it was another strong outing from the 25-year-old lefty. Suarez has now made eight starts since transitioning from […]

Andrew Chafin Earns Save Versus White Sox On Thursday

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Andrew Chafin tossed a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save on Thursday versus the White Sox.

Yan Gomes Collects RBI In Win Versus ChiSox

Oakland Athletics catcher Yan Gomes went 2-for-4 with an RBI in a win versus the White Sox on Wednesday.

Travis Jankowski Scores Run In Loss To Brewers

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Travis Jankowski went 1-for-2 with a run scored in a loss at Milwaukee on Wednesday. The 30-year-old journeyman has been a solid player at times for Philly this season, but he's not a name to prioritize in fantasy. Jankowski has been hitting eighth, not ideal in a National League lineup, and he's […]

J.T. Realmuto Collects RBI In Loss At Milwaukee

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto went 0-for-4 with an RBI groundout and a stolen base in a loss to the Brewers on Wednesday.

Kyle Gibson Struggles With Control In No-Decision Versus Brewers

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Kyle Gibson allowed three runs across just 4 2/3 innings in a no-decision versus the Brewers on Wednesday.

Frankie Montas Stays Hot In Win Over White Sox

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Frankie Montas allowed one run across seven innings with seven strikeouts in a win over the White Sox on Wednesday.

Matt Olson Collects RBI In Loss To White Sox

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson went 0-for-4 with an RBI in a loss to the White Sox on Tuesday.

Starling Marte Swipes 43rd Base Of Season On Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Starling Marte went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in a loss to the White Sox on Tuesday. Marte has slowed down a little bit after his torrid start to his A's career, but the 32-year-old is still a must-start player in fantasy. He still leads the Majors with 43 […]

James Kaprielian Labors Versus White Sox On Tuesday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher James Kaprielian allowed one run across four innings in another short start for the rookie right-hander. The White Sox made Kaprielian work in this one as he had 92 pitches through four innings as he's now failed to complete the sixth inning in five straight outings. The rookie started the season […]
