FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (4/6/19): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Tom Vecchio highlights the top FanDuel MLB DFS lineup picks for 4/6/19, and a couple of sleepers to consider while building daily rosters.

We have a full day of games but they are split into an early slate and a late slate, so I'll bring a few options from each slate. There is no super expensive pitcher on the slate, so you can look elsewhere if you want to spend down.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel on 4/6/2019. 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 reach out to me on Twitter @DFS_Tom.

FanDuel DFS Pitchers

Carlos Carrasco - P, CLE vs TOR (FD - $10,000)

As mentioned above, there is no super expensive pitcher, but Carrasco is the most expensive option on either slate today. He got off to a rough start this season allowing six earned runs in just 4.1 innings against the Twins. He is a much better pitcher than that which is shown by his 29.5% strikeout from last year and a super low 5.5% walk rate. He is up against a Blue Jays whose current roster finished with a 25.3% strikeout rate last season.

Lucas Giolito - P, CWS vs SEA (FD - $7,100)

Giolito came out firing in his first start of the season with eight strikeouts in 6.2 innings pitched and only one walk. He can be a bit of a hit or miss pitcher since he allowed 1.40 HR/9 last season overall, which can get him chased out of games quickly. The White Sox come in at +100 "home dogs" which should hopefully keep his ownership lower, which is great for tournaments.

 

FanDuel DFS Infielders

Luke Voit - 1B, NYY @ BAL (FD - $4,700)

Voit and the Yankees are in Baltimore to face Dylan Bundy who allowed a .325 wOBA and 2.33 HR/9 to right-handed hitters last season, putting Voit in a great spot. The Yankees offense was a bit hit or miss in the first few games but seemingly game to life in their most recent outing versus the Orioles.

Adam Frazier - 2B, PIT vs CIN (FD - $3,700)

Do early-season hitting streak matter? Well, Frazier has a five-game streak active right now and up against Tanner Roark, who isn't a great pitcher at all. Roark allowed a .332 wOBA and 1.26 HR/9 to lefties last season and is great to stack against today.

Zack Cozart - SS, LAA vs TEX (FD - $2,100)

Cozart should draw into the lineup again today since Andrelton Simmons is dealing with a back injury. Cozart is very cheap today and allows you to stack up the Angels a bit more easily tonight, especially if you want to add Trout to those stacks. Cozart doesn't have great numbers himself and isn't for cash games, only for GPPs.

Matt Chapman - 3B, OAK @ HOU (FD - $4,400)

Chapman should be a top option on this slate as he comes in with .376 wOBA and a .258 ISO versus left-handed pitchers last season, which is some of the best you'll find. He's fine for any format and has legit multi-hit, multi-RBI potential tonight.

 

FanDuel DFS Outfielders

Jorge Soler - OF, KAN @ DET (FD - $3,400)

Soler is up against Matt Moore today who is horrible against right-handed hitters. Yes, there is really no other way to put it, Moore is terrible against righties, allowing .390 wOBA and 1.64 HR/9 to them last season. Stack the Royals righties today!

Ender Inciarte - OF, ATL vs MIA (FD - $3,500)

Inciarte is the member of the Braves who often goes overlooked in their stacks since he doesn't bring a ton of power with his .132 ISO versus right-handed pitchers. But that also means he is a bit cheaper and brings some stolen base upside against Sandy Alcantara who had a 17.7% walk rate vs. left-handed hitters last year.
