There was a sizable Monday slate, and we now have an even bigger Tuesday slate. There are 15 games tonight, meaning all 30 teams will play. There are plenty of options to choose from, and multiple different ways to construct your lineups.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel on 7/10/18. 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 @BalesSJustin.
FanDuel DFS Pitchers
Justin Verlander - P, vs OAK ($11,800)
Verlander has been an elite pitcher this season, posting a 9-4 record with a 2.15 ERA and a 0.84 WHIP through 19 starts. He also owns a 11.0 K/9 to go along with a 0.9 HR/9 through 125.2 innings. Verlander will be playing in a pitcher friendly stadium tonight, and he gets a great matchup against the Oakland A's, who he found success against earlier this season. He's a -212 favorite in a game set at eight runs, and Verlander can be used in all leagues.
Rich Hill - P, at SD ($8,000)
Hill has struggled quite a bit this season, but he has been able to score 30, 51, and 40 fantasy points in three of his last four games. Overall, he owns a 2-3 record with a 4.56 ERA and a 1.37 WHIP through only 10 starts. He has flashed upside with a 9.7 K/9, but he has also struggled with a 1.7 HR/9. Hill gets a great matchup against the San Diego Padres in a pitcher friendly stadium, and he's a -161 favorite in a game set at 8 runs. Hill is a solid option on this slate.
FanDuel DFS Infielders
Paul Goldschmidt - C/1B, at COL ($4,800)
Goldschmidt has been playing at a high level recently, posting a .385 average with a .667 slugging percentage and a 1.145 OPS over his last 10 games. He has also been an elite hitter against left-handed pitching throughout his career, and Goldschmidt gets a great matchup against Tyler Anderson. He can be used in all leagues tonight.
Kolten Wong - 2B, at CWS ($2,700)
Wong has looked decent recently, hitting .286 with three extra-base hits, four RBIs, and two steals over his last 10 games. He gets a good matchup against Dylan Covey, and Wong owns 0.091 wOBA and 0.107 ISO differentials against right-handed pitching. He isn't the safest option on the board, but he's a solid salary relief play.
Nolan Arenado - 3B, vs ARI ($4,800)
Arenado is hitting .481 with a 56% extra-base hit rate against left-handed pitching in Coors this season. He has been struggling in his last few starts, but this is the type of matchup that can help his recent struggles. He gets a tough matchup against Patrick Corbin, but Arenado can be used in all leagues.
Chris Taylor - SS, at SD ($2,900)
Taylor has been playing well over his last 10 games, recording a .270 average with a .459 slugging percentage and a .784 OPS over that span. He generally leads off against left-handed pitching, which could give him a couple extra at-bats tonight. He gets a good matchup against Eric Lauer, and Taylor makes a great option for his low price tag.
FanDuel DFS Outfielders
A.J. Pollock - OF, at COL ($4,100)
Pollock has looked good since returning from injury, and he'll be playing in Coors tonight. He gets a great matchup against Tyler Anderson, and Pollock owns dominant 0.076 wOBA and 0.101 ISO differentials against left-handed pitching. He's expected to hit fourth in the Diamondbacks lineup, and he can be used in all leagues tonight.
Tommy Pham - OF, at CWS ($2,900)
Pham is dealing with an injury after fouling a ball off of his foot, but he's expected to draw the start tonight. His numbers haven't been overly impressive recently, but he does own a 54% hard-hit and a 94 mph exit velocity over the last 15 days. He's also expected to hit second in the Cardinals lineup, and he's entirely too cheap for his upside. At this price, Pham can be used in all leagues.
