Tom Vecchio highlights the top FanDuel MLB DFS lineup picks for 9/15/18, and a couple of sleepers to consider while building daily rosters.

We have a four-game early slate which starts at 3 pm est and then an eight-game slate which starts at 7 pm est. There are plenty of good options across the board, we have high priced pitchers to look at, along with Coors Field in play.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel on 9/15/18. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.

FanDuel DFS Pitcher

German Marquez - P, COL @ SFG (FD - $10,600)

Marquez is the most expensive pitcher on the entire slate and has been amazing as of late. He comes in with nine or more strikeouts in four straight starts, while allowing a total of five earned runs in that span. He is getting a massive positive park shift being away from Coors Field and now in San Francisco, which is a great pitcher's park. Up against the Giants, who have a .295 team wOBA vs right-handed pitchers this season, which is fourth worst in the league.

Mike Clevinger - P, CLE vs DET (FD - $10,400)

Clevinger comes in with eight or more strikeouts in four straight starts, with only seven earned runs in his last four starts. He is just half a step behind Marquez in terms of his production, but still just as good of an option. He is up against the Tigers who have a 23% strikeout rate vs right-handed pitchers and a low .140 team ISO vs righties. Great option for cash or GPPs tonight.

 

FanDuel DFS Infielders

Kurt Suzuki - C, ATL vs WAS (FD - $2,600)

Suzuki is cheap today and comes in with a solid .172 ISO vs right-handed pitchers this season, which should put him in a good spot. Why is he in a good spot? Well, that is due to the fact he is up against Jeremy Hellickson, who is giving up 1.11 HR/9 to righties and a 34% fly ball rate.

Neil Walker - 2B, NYY vs TOR (FD - $2,600)

If Walker draws the start today, he is a cheap option, who gets you plenty of exposure to the Yankees powerful offense. He is facing off against Sean Reid-Foley, who is giving up a .339 wOBA to lefties and 2.19 HR/9 this season.

Anthony Rendon - 3B, WAS @ ATL (FD - $3,900)

Rendon just crushes righties this season with his .365 wOBA and a .197 ISO, so you should be trying to get him in your lineups, with this favorable hitter's park in front of him. He is up against Julio Teheran, who is very home run prone, which is shown by his 39% fly ball rate and 35% hard contact rate to righties.

Jorge Polanco - SS, MIN @ KAN (FD - $3,000)

Polanco isn't that expensive and comes in with a .361 wOBA vs right-handed pitchers this season, which is truly solid for a player at his price point. He is up against Ian Kennedy, who is giving up a .334 wOBA to lefties, along with a massive 43% fly ball rate.

 

FanDuel DFS Outfielders

Joc Pederson - OF, LOS @ STL (FD - $3,000)

Pederson comes in with a surprisingly high .291 ISO vs right-handed pitchers this season and has home runs in two of his last three games. If he is hot right now and has numbers this solid, he should be an automatic lock into your lineups tonight.

Curtis Granderson - OF, MIL vs PIT (FD - $3,500)

It's not certain that Granderson will get the start today, but if he does, he has some really nice upside. He comes in with a .212 ISO vs right-handed pitchers and is now facing off against Ivan Nova, who is giving up 1.57 HR/9 to lefties, which won't play well in this favorable hitter's park.
