DraftKings DFS Players
Walker Buehler - SP, LAD ($14,100)
I'm actually comfortable with both starting pitchers now that the series is in Dodger Stadium, a much more pitcher-friendly park than Fenway. Buehler has 22 strikeouts in 16 2/3 innings this postseason and has massive upside if he's able to work deep into his start.
Joc Pederson - OF, LAD ($7,100)
It is essential to maximize the amount of plate appearances throughout your lineup, as each trip to the plate is another chance to produce. The best way to do this is by using hitters early in the lineup - Pederson will be leading of for the Dodgers. Joc crushed righties with his 139 wRC+ this year and is very affordable.
Xander Bogaerts - SS, BOS ($6,800)
I'm loving Bogaerts out of the Red Sox two-hole. If Boston keeps scoring runs like they have been this series, Bogaerts will likely be involved with some runs and RBIs. If you're going with Red Sox bats, he's great to pair with Mookie Betts or J.D. Martinez.
Craig Kimbrel - RP, BOS ($3,300)
Relievers are a great way to get more high-priced elite players into your lineup. While it's obviously no guarantee he will pitch, Kimbrel will certainly come in to close out the game if the Red Sox are winning. He and Kenley Jansen are both fantastic options as two of the best relief pitchers in baseball.
