DFS Lineup Stacks to Target for FanDuel
San Francisco Giants
The San Francisco Giants are absolutely hammering the ball right now. They have been on fire for about two weeks now, and they can be used in both 50/50 contests and tournaments. Even without Hunter Pence and Matt Duffy, multiple runs per game are coming across the plate. Do not avoid them.
Boston Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox are obviously one of the best offenses in the league as far as powerful and run production is concerned. Tonight, Nick Martinez and the Texas Rangers are going to attempt to keep them from scoring. This is likely not going to happen. Stack the Red Sox with confidence.
Arizona Diamondbacks
The Arizona Diamondbacks have a ton of power scattered throughout their lineup. Tonight, Tyler Anderson is going to pitch against them in Coors Field, which is the best stadium in the majors for hitters. The Diamondbacks are going to score early and often, so make sure to keep them on the radar tonight.
DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider for FanDuel
Max Scherzer is the best pitcher on the board. He has been dominating teams over his last few games, and he should continue to pitch well tonight against the Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers are not a great offensive team, and Scherzer should easily pick up the win against Zach Davies.
Cody Reed gets a great matchup against the San Diego Padres in Cincinnati. The Reds do have a very hitter-friendly ballpark, but Reed just posted a huge nine strikeout performance against the Houston Astros in Houston, so he is worth consideration in both 50/50 contests and tournaments. The Padres do not hit the ball nearly as well as the Astros do.
DFS Infielders to Consider for FanDuel
Catcher (C) - Buster Posey
There is just no getting around this. Buster Posey's price tag has skyrocketed of recent, but for great reason. He is hitting .385 in his last 10 games with six RBIs and four extra base hits. Use him in all formats until he cools down.
First Base (1B) - Freddie Freeman
Freddie Freeman is going to get overlooked tonight against Steven Matz and the New York Mets. Despite his bad matchup, he is hitting over .450 in his last 10 games with three home runs and eight RBIs. It took him quite a bit to get going, but it looks like he does not plan on stopping now that he got started. Use him in tournaments.
Second Base (2B) - Ramiro Pena
Let's go back to the San Francisco Giants' lineup real quick. Ramiro Pena has been starting for the injured Matt Duffy, and he is hitting .462 so far this season. His price tag is down right now, so take advantage of that before it starts to come up.
Shortstop (SS) - Nick Ahmed
Nick Ahmed is one of the worst hitters on the Arizona Diamondbacks' team, but he is worth consideration in tournaments tonight against the Colorado Rockies in Coors Field due to his low price tag. He has a bit of power with four home runs this season, and he should see a couple of RBI situations. He is a great salary relief option.
Third Base (3B) - Jake Lamb
Speaking of the Arizona Diamondbacks, do not pass on Jake Lamb tonight. He is a power hitting machine. On the season, he has 14 home runs, and in his last 10 games, he is hitting over .350. That is a deadly combination. Add Coors Field to the mix, and it is almost impossible to ignore rostering him.
DFS Outfielders to Consider for FanDuel
Adam Duvall gets a great matchup tonight against the San Diego Padres in Cincinnati. On the season, he has a solid 20 home runs, and that is part due to the fact that he plays half of his games in Cincinnati. It is a great hitter-friendly ballpark. Use Duvall in all formats tonight, especially tournaments.
Carlos Beltran makes for a great tournament option tonight against the Minnesota Twins. He is hitting over .300 in his last 10 games with three home runs and 10 RBIs. On the season, he has 19 home runs. For an old man, he still has a lot of pop left in his bat. Fire him up.
Kevin Pillar is still too cheap. He is starting to cool down, but he is still launching home runs. He has four in his last 10 games, and he is hitting very close to .300 over that span. On the season, he only has seven home runs, so it should be rather obvious that he is currently on a hot streak. Use him until he cools down completely.
