Justin Bales's DraftKings MLB advice - daily fantasy baseball (DFS) lineup picks for 4/22/16. These are the top value and sleeper plays for your MLB DFS lineups.

It's always a fun night when a struggling pitcher travels to Petco Park. It makes the pick interesting, as you can fade that pitcher or side with the ballpark factor. Tonight, that pitcher is Adam Wainwright.

Who's ready to get down to business for the MLB season?

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball MLB lineup picks for DraftKings on 4/22/16. 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.

DFS Lineup Stacks to Target on DraftKings

Los Angeles Dodgers - The Dodgers will be traveling to Coors tonight, which makes them the best stacking option on the slate. They will likely be high owned, which hurts their GPP value, but they are -135 favorites in a game set at 11 runs, and they are an extremely safe option.

Colorado Rockies - There are a few games projected to be high scoring tonight, which means the Rockies could fly under the radar a bit. They are underdogs in a game set at 11 runs, which means they will likely do plenty of scoring tonight. They are best suited for GPPs, though.

New York Mets - The Mets tend to go overlooked each night, and tonight should be no different, as their game is projected to be fairly low scoring. They have been on fire over the last few games, though, as they have been hitting home runs at an elite rate. They're a high upside team that can also be used in cash games.

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider on DraftKings

Adam Wainwright - Wainwright has looked terrible early in the season, but he'll be heading to Petco Park tonight. That's one of the biggest stadiums in the MLB, and he gets a great matchup against a weak Padres offense. Wainwright is a -136 favorite in a game set at only 7 runs, and he's a great option tonight.

Aaron Sanchez - Sanchez has looked outstanding early in the season, as he has a 1.35 ERA and 20 strikeouts through 20 innings. He gets a good matchup against the A's, who have struggled at times on offense this season. He's a favorite against Sonny Gray, and he can be used in all leagues tonight.

DFS Infielders to Consider on DraftKings

Catcher (C)

Jarrod Saltalamacchia - At this point, I find it hard to avoid Salty, who has been dominant this season. He's hitting .313 with 8 extra-base hits and 15 RBIs. He gets a good matchup against Tomlin tonight, and Salty has been on a home run tear recently.

First Base (1B)

Adrian Gonzalez - Gonzalez's price tag is a bit surprising, as he has been on fire to start the season and he will be moving to Coors tonight. The only part of his offensive game that has been lacking is his power, which the move to Colorado should help tonight. He can be used in all leagues.

Second Base (2B)

D.J. LeMahieu - LeMahieu is now leading off for the Rockies, which gives him a boost in upside. He has hit left-handed pitching well in his career, and he has always been a significantly better player at home. He's a safe option tonight, and he makes a great play in all leagues.

Shortstop (SS)

Francisco Lindor - Lindor is a player that is just poorly priced tonight. He's entirely too cheap, as he has been dominating early in the season and his price tag doesn't represent that. He's a safe option, but he also comes with a ton of upside. He gets somewhat of a tough matchup against Verlander, but he can be used in all leagues still.

Third Base (3B)

Nolan Arenado - It's shocking that Arenado isn't the most expensive third baseman on the slate, but it's something to take advantage of. He's a great hitter in Coors, and he also has crushed left-handed pitching in his career. He has displayed great power this season, and he can be used in all leagues.

DFS Outfielders to Consider on DraftKings

Yoenis Cespedes - Cespedes, and the rest of the Mets, have been heating up recently. He has four home runs in his last six games, and he gets an easy matchup in Atlanta tonight. He has tremendous upside, and Ces can be used in all leagues tonight.

Carlos Gonzalez - This pick is for all of the Rockies outfielders, but CarGo seems to be a bit too cheap. He has loads of power, especially in Coors, but his price tag is low because it's a lefty/lefty matchup. Still, he should be priced significantly higher, and he's a great GPP option.

Adam Duvall - Duvall is a player with ridiculous power, but he has displayed it all that much this season. Instead, he's been hitting for a high average, which is very surprising. He hasn't lost that power, and he has the ability to go yard in any game, but he is best suited for GPPs because of the tough matchup against Lester.
