We're onto the second game of the World Series tonight! There was a lot more scoring than many expected with Chris Sale and Clayton Kershaw taking the mound. That shows how good each of these offenses are, though, potentially giving us a way strategy to utilize tonight.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings on 10/24/18. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.
You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for sites like FanDuel, and other sports too. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to hit me up on Twitter @BalesSJustin.
DraftKings DFS Players
David Price - SP, vs LAD ($13,400)
Both pitchers can be considered in this game, but I side slightly with Price. He has looked great over his last 10 games, posting a 5-2 record with a 3.50 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP in those games. He has also been a better option at home this season, and he comes with tremendous strikeout potential.
J.D. Martinez - OF, vs LAD ($10,400)
Martinez has been an elite hitter at home this season, recording a .328 average with a .669 slugging percentage and a 1.067 OPS in 81 home games. He has been a dominant option against left-handed pitching this season, as well. Martinez and Mookie Betts are both elite options, but Martinez is slightly cheaper, giving him a small edge over Betts tonight.
David Freese - 1B/3B, at BOS ($6,400)
Freese should draw the start against the left-handed pitcher, as he's hitting .321 with a .489 slugging percentage and an .876 OPS against lefties this season. He has also been on fire recently, hitting .357 with a .714 slugging percentage and a 1.126 OPS over his last 10 games. He's a cheap way to get a hitter in this game, who has been playing at a high level recently.
Craig Kimbrel - RP, vs LAD ($3,300)
If you're starting Price, it would be wise to pair him with Kimbrel. If you're assuming Price gets the win, Kimbrel will likely close out the game. He has flashed tremendous upside this season, recording a 13.6 K/9 through 68.2 innings. There are a lot of high priced players that should be considered in this game, and Kimbrel is a high upside way to get them in your lineup.
