DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/26/18): MLB DFS Lineups

The top daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings on October 26th, 2018. Troy Klauder's MLB DFS analysis and sleepers for building optimal DFS rosters.

Game 3 of the World Series takes place in Los Angeles tonight, starting at 8:09 pm eastern. Rick Porcello of the Red Sox takes on Walker Buehler of the Dodgers. As before, DraftKings has a Showdown slate available for us.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings on 10/26/18. 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 @TroyKlauder.

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.
