Jason Bales highlights the top daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for 7/24/16. These are the top value and sleeper plays for your FanDuel MLB DFS lineups.
FanDuel has contests that avoid the Colorado Rockies and Atlanta Braves game at 4:00 PM EST, but that is so pointless. There is a ton of great value in that game, and it would be unwise to avoid it. Strategy changes a bit, but play the "all day" contests.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball MLB lineup picks for FanDuel on 7/24/16. 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 FanDuel.

DFS Lineup Stacks to Target for FanDuel
Cincinnati Reds
The Cincinnati Reds get a great matchup tonight against the Arizona Diamondbacks and Zack Godley. This game will be held in Cincinnati, which gives a huge bump to all the power hitters playing. The Reds have huge upside and are a great tournament stack tonight.
Colorado Rockies
The Colorado Rockies get a great matchup tonight against the Atlanta Braves and Tyrell Jenkins. Jenkins is one of the worst pitchers on the Braves' staff, and the Rockies are fantastic in Coors Field. This one is pretty much a no-brainer.
Boston Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox are one of the best hitting teams in the league. They should be able to score early and often against the Minnesota Twins and Tommy Milone. On FanDuel, most of the elite hitters on the Red Sox team are not too overly priced, so fire them up in all formats.
DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider for FanDuel
Rick Porcello has been fantastic of recent, and he should ride his hot streak into today's game as well. His price tag is down right now, the Minnesota Twins love to strikeout, and he has been consistent. This sounds like a lock for today.
Jameson Taillon is extremely cheap and worth consideration in tournaments tonight against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Phillies have been horrible offensively this season, Taillon pitches better in Pittsburgh, and he is worth risking it on his low price tag.
DFS Infielders to Consider for FanDuel
Catcher (C) - Sandy Leon
Sandy Leon has been on fire this season. He is a great part of the Boston Red Sox lineup, and he is currently one of the best hitting catchers in the league. The RBI opportunities are there every single night, so he generally does not disappoint.
First Base (1B) - Marwin Gonzalez
Marwin Gonzalez has been hitting well of recent, and he should be able to take advantage of his solid matchup against Tim Lincecum and the Los Angeles Angels. After a spark or two, Lincecum fell off the map again. Attack him until he proves otherwise.
Second Base (2B) - Brandon Phillips
Brandon Phillips has huge power and his price tag is down because he is not a very consistent hitter. Tonight, he is hitting in Cincinnati, which gives him a huge power boost. In tournaments, he is one of the best second base options on the board without question.
Shortstop (SS) - Jonathan Villar
Jonathan Villar will be under-owned tonight because he gets a tough matchup against the Chicago Cubs and Jon Lester. However, Lester has struggle a lot of recent, and if he struggles tonight, Villar will have no problems taking advantaging and crushing the ball on his way to a great under-owned performance.
Third Base (3B) - Jose Reyes
Jose Reyes has been very surprising for the New York Mets this season. He is hitting great, and as far as fantasy is concerned, he is producing with the best of them. It looks like he should continue to start, at least while he is hot, so fire him up.
DFS Outfielders to Consider for FanDuel
Carlos Gonzalez is hitting against Tyrell Jenkins and the rest of the Atlanta Braves' bullpen in Colorado tonight. There is nothing else that needs to be said.
Christian Yelich has been on fire of recent for the Miami Marlins, and he is worth consideration in both 50/50 contests and tournaments tonight against the New York Mets and Steven Matz. Matz has not been himself of recent, and the Marlins could use that to their benefit.
