We have a two-game MLB playoff slate where have both sets of American League games in action. Options are limited across the board, but let's take a look.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel on 10/6/18. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.
You can also read more DFS lineup picks for DraftKings and other sports too. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me up on Twitter @DFS_Tom.
FanDuel DFS Pitcher
David Price - P, BOS vs NYY (FD - $8,200)
Price is up against the Yankees who he has struggled with this season, but we are dealing with a two-game slate today, so you need to come at this from a game theory perspective. He is the cheapest of the four pitchers going, so with those savings, you would be able to load up on the hitters you want. At this point, if you are still playing MLB DFS, you should only be playing tournaments, so the path to points through hitters might be easier with him at pitcher.
FanDuel DFS Infielders
Luke Voit - 1B, NYY @ BOS (FD - $3,900)
If you aren't going to be rostering Price tonight, Voit should be a top target since you want to be going for some home run upside. He comes in with a .484 wOBA and a .440 ISO vs left-handed pitchers this season, which should give him plenty of power in this great hitter's park.
Jose Ramirez - 2B, CLE @ HOU (FD - $4,000)
The Indians got shut down yesterday vs Verlander and they are in for an equally tough matchup vs Gerrit Cole today. With that said, they need their best player to step up and get their offense going. He has three career at-bats vs Cole, with one hit, but that one hit is a home run.
Alex Bregman - 3B, HOU vs CLE (FD - $3,900)
Bregman has a .243 ISO vs right-handed pitchers this season and is coming off a game where he had a home run and two RBIs. This matchup is tough versus Carlos Carrasco, but you have to take a stand on these small slates to give yourself some upside.
FanDuel DFS Outfielders
Giancarlo Stanton - OF, NYY @ BOS (FD - $4,700)
This might not be a "must win" game for the Yankees, but it's as close as you're going to get. Dating back to the last few games of the regular season, Stanton has four home runs in his last five games and brings a massive .329 ISO vs left-handed pitchers.
Jackie Bradley Jr. - OF, BOS vs NYY (FD - $2,700)
JBJ is probably cheaper than he should be but probably priced down a bit due to the two-game slate. He is best used in a Red Sox stack and comes in with a .186 ISO vs right-handed pitchers this season. A Sox wrap around stack can save a good bit of money today.
