DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/19/16): MLB DFS Advice

This is a solid slate of games tonight, which is lead by the matchup between Jake Arrieta and Noah Syndergaard. That game will be featured on ESPN, and it should be an elite matchup. There are also a few other solid matchups to look forward to tonight.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball MLB lineup picks for DraftKings on 7/19/16. You can also see our FanDuel DFS lineup picks for 7/19/16. 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 DraftKings. Well, let's get down to it!

Editor's Note: RotoBaller offers the best Premium MLB Subscription - only $1.99 per week. All the tools you need to help win your seasonal and daily leagues: Hitter & Pitcher Streamers, Matchup Ratings for every player, Under-the-Radar Surgers for AVG, HR, Ks, plus daily DFS Cheat Sheets, Lineup Picks, Expert Lineups, Stacks and Avoids. 

 

DFS Lineup Stacks to Target on DraftKings

Colorado RockiesThe Rockies are the obvious stack tonight, as they are whenever they play in Colorado. They get a great matchup against Blake Snell, and they are -155 favorites in a game set at 12 runs. If you can fit the Rockies in your lineup, it would be wise to do so.

Detroit TigersThe Tigers get a great matchup against Tommy Milone tonight. He has struggled quite a bit on the road this season, and the Tigers are a much better offense on the road. They are -155 favorites in a game set at 10 runs, and they make a great stacking option if you're avoiding the game in Coors.

Boston Red SoxThe Red Sox get a great matchup against Peavy, who has thrown well recently. He hasn't become a great pitcher, though, and the Red Sox have one of the best offenses in the MLB. They are -160 favorites in a game set at 10.5 runs, and they can be used in all leagues.

 

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider on DraftKings

Carlos MartinezMartinez has quietly been enjoying a great season, as he has an 8-6 record with a 2.85 ERA and a 7.6 K/9. He gets a great matchup against a weak San Diego offense, and the Cardinals are -200 favorites in a game set at 8 runs. Martinez can be used in all leagues.

Reynaldo Lopez - Lopez will be making his first start of the season tonight, and he's entirely too cheap. He comes with some risk, as he has an ERA over 3.00 in the minors, but he also has elite strikeout potential. He's the favorite tonight against the Dodgers, and he's a great option for his low price tag.

 

DFS Infielders to Consider on DraftKings

Catcher (C)

Sandy LeonLeon has looked outstanding for the Red Sox this season, and he gets a great matchup against Peavy tonight. The Red Sox should be able to score plenty of runs tonight, and Leon is a cheap way to get exposure to them.

First Base (1B)

Kennys VargasVargas has been on fire since joining the Twins this season. He has displayed elite power, which has given him elite upside. He gets a great matchup against Sanchez tonight, and Vargas is a bit too cheap.

Second Base (2B)

DJ LeMahieuLeMahieu is an elite hitter in Coors this season. He's hitting around .380 in Colorado and he has also dominated left-handed pitching in his career. He gets a great matchup against Blake Snell, and LeMahieu is an elite option tonight.

Shortstop (SS)

J.J. HardyHardy isn't a player that gets a ton of recognition, but he has been on fire recently. Over his last 10 games, he's hitting over .350 with good power. He gets a good matchup against Eovaldi in an extremely hitter friendly stadium. Hardy has been playing well enough for all leagues.

Third Base (3B)

Nolan ArenadoArenado is another player that should be considered every time he's playing at home. He gets a great matchup against Snell, and Arenado has been playing well recently. He isn't a cheap option, but he can be used in all leagues.

 

DFS Outfielders to Consider on DraftKings

Giancarlo StantonStanton has struggled quite a bit this season, but he has been on fire over his last 10 games. He has been a consistent option, but he has also displayed elite upside. His price tag hasn't reached his recent production, and he can be used in all leagues.

Michael BournBourn has been heating up over his last few games, and he has displayed good upside. He has elite speed, and he gets a good matchup against Sanchez tonight. Bourn is best suited for GPPs, though.

Corey DickersonDickerson is hitting nearly .300 over his last 10 games, and he gets a great matchup against Chatwood in Colorado tonight. Dickerson is a player with a ton of power, and he's still fairly cheap. He's a great option tonight.
