DFS Lineup Stacks to Target for FanDuel
Chicago Cubs
The Chicago Cubs are the best offense in the league. Patrick Corbin is going to have a rough outing. Use them in all formats.
Seattle Mariners
The Seattle Mariners should be able to get ahold of the ball against Derek Holland and the Texas Rangers. They have a lot of home run power scattered throughout the order. Use them in tournaments.
Philadelphia Phillies
The Philadelphia Phillies are a tournament-only team tonight against the Milwaukee Brewers. Despite the great matchup, they tend to struggle at the plate. From time to time, their offense flourishes, so it is worth the risk.
DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider for FanDuel
Jake Arrieta is currently competing with Clayton Kershaw for best pitcher in the league. He gets a great matchup against the Arizona Diamondbacks today, who tend to hit better in Arizona. Use him in all leagues.
Aaron Nola has been surprisingly great so far this season for the Philadelphia Phillies. He should continue to pitch well against the struggling Milwaukee Brewers' offense. He can also be used in all leagues.
DFS Infielders to Consider for FanDuel
Catcher (C) - Miguel Montero
Miguel Montero has a lot of upside today against Patrick Corbin and the Arizona Diamondbacks. He posted over 20 fantasy points four games ago, and while his batting average is low on the season, he does have two home runs and 12 RBIs.
First Base (1B) - John Jaso
John Jaso has been hitting well all season long. With a batting average hovering right around .300, he is a safe bet to hit value, especially for his price tag.
Second Base (2B) - Daniel Murphy
Daniel Murphy recently lit up the Philadelphia Phillies' pitching staff. He combined for 47 fantasy points across three games. He will look to continue his success today.
Shortstop (SS) - Andres Blanco
Andres Blanco has been starting for the Philadelphia Phillies of recent, and he has been playing fairly well. He has eight or more fantasy points in two of his last three games, which is value considering his price tag.
Third Base (3B) - Jose Ramirez
Jose Ramirez has been on a tear of recent. He is hitting over .300 this season with double-digit fantasy points in three of his last four games. There is no reason to avoid him at all. Use him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.
DFS Outfielders to Consider for FanDuel
Nelson Cruz gets a great matchup against the Texas Rangers, and he currently has over 15 fantasy points in two of his last four games. He has great upside, and he has actually been rather consistent this season with a batting average around .300.
Andrew McCutchen has not been great so far this season, as his batting average is right around .250, but he is still usable in tournaments due to his high upside. He gets a great matchup, and he is still one of the best hitters in the league.
