MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Expert Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks For Today (3/29/25)

March 29, 2025

Koby's top DraftKings and FanDuel MLB DFS picks for today, Saturday, 3/29/25. His favorite daily fantasy baseball lineup sleepers and value picks for DFS on DraftKings and FanDuel.

Welcome back, RotoBallers! This is my debut with the MLB team this year, and I'm excited to share my DFS picks for this season. DraftKings and FanDuel have split the slates, but we will focus on the main slate, which includes six games.

We have a lighter pitching slate, which means we have to get creative in GPP. The two games that stick out the most are the Rangers/Red Sox game, which has the highest total on the day at nine! The Mariners/Athletics game is no surprise to be our lowest at seven, so the pitching matchup there should be looked at heavily.

This article will provide my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 3/29/2025, with the slate starting at 7:05 p.m. EDT. The lineup picks will range from some elite players to mid-priced options and value plays. You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for other sports here. Monitoring injury news and today's MLB starting lineups is always essential.

DraftKings, FanDuel Pitchers - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Bryce Miller vs. ATH ($7.9K DraftKings; $9.9K FanDuel)

Bryce Miller loves going against the Athletics. In the last two seasons, he has faced them four times,  struck out 30 batters, and given up six runs. He also gets the benefit of the more pitcher-friendly ballpark in Seattle.

He pushes the fastball down the hitter's throats and has them swinging into oblivion with his sinker. The Athletics lineup has gotten better but we just saw Gilbert strike out eight of them, and I could very well see Miller doing something similar.

Bryce Miller is feeling it this spring. (He averaged 95.2 on his four-seamer last year.) https://t.co/m2HAgGM19k pic.twitter.com/Oy3yXoBwFc

Spencer Schwellenbach vs. SDP ($8.8K DraftKings; $10K FanDuel)

Spencer Schwellenbach cooked during spring break, where he finished his final game with 10 strikeouts. During spring training, he had a 26:2 K:BB ratio and looks more than ready to compete this season.

Last season, he had a 25% strikeout rate and wasn't particularly hit much harder by one side of the plate or the other. As long as he keeps the pitch count low, I don't see Spencer not getting a handful of strikeouts along with a QS and a win.

Also consider: Brandon Pfaadt vs. CHC ($7.7K DraftKings; $8.6K FanDuel), Spencer Arrighetti vs. NYM ($7.5K DraftKings; $8.4K FanDuel)

DraftKings, FanDuel Infielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Eugenio Suarez - 3B, ARI vs. Shota Imanaga ($3.6K DK; $3K FD)

Suarez has come out insanely hot to start the season with three home runs in the first two games. He gets a tough matchup, going against Shota Imanaga, but he did hit lefties for .350 at home last season, including a homer against him. I'm going to ride the hot hand to start the season.

Eugenio Suárez AGAIN!

Matt Olson – 1B, ATL vs. Randy Vazquez ($5.1K DK; $3.4K FD)

Matt Olson had a bit of a down year last year, but he did have three homers during spring training. He gets a great matchup against Randy Vazquez, who had a 4.87 ERA last season and was very susceptible to lefties. Lefties batted .365 against him, and if there is any lefty to take advantage of something like that, it is Matt Olson.

Jorge Polanco – 2B/3B, SEA vs. Osvaldo Bido ($3.8K DK; $2.5K FD)

This is a straight GPP play, and I also prefer this much more on FanDuel. Polanco started the season with an incredible 3/3 night that included a game-winning home run. He struggled a lot more in last night's game but still finished with a hit.

If Polanco can return to his pre-2024 days, he could be a dangerous hitter for the Mariners, who need it badly. He is still extremely cheap on FD and gets a solid matchup against Osvaldo Bido, who had a bit of an up-and-down season last year.

Also consider: Christian Walker (HOU), Ozzie Albies (ATL), Corey Seager (TEX), Mookie Betts (LAD)

DraftKings, FanDuel Outfielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Jarren Duran - OF, BOS vs. Tyler Mahle ($5.4K DK; $3.7K FD)

Duran exploded as an elite hitter during last season's campaign and is getting a matchup here against Tyler Mahle, who has been on and off injury for the last few years.

Durran batted just a touch under .300 against righties last season and hit 17 of his 21 homers against them as well. He already has three hits on the season with a stolen base in each game so far as well. I'm expecting a big game here from Duran and possibly his first homer of the season.

Shohei Ohtani - OF, LAD vs. Reese Olson ($6.5K DK; $4.5K FD)

Shohei had a rough night against Jack Flaherty but should be able to bounce back against Reese Olson here. Olson had a poor spring training, giving up 10 runs in 14 innings this year and lefties hit .253 against him last season.

Shohei is batting .571 against righties in four games this season, and with Reese primarily throwing the slider and four-seam, I don't see Shohei having too much of an issue hitting it.

Wilyer Abreu - OF, BOS vs. Tyler Mahle ($3.6K DK; $2.9K FD)

I hate to double up here, but Wilyer can't be ignored at his price. He already has five hits on the season and two home runs. Even last season, he was batting .266 against righties, and with his price being what it is, I'll be all over him until he goes cold.

Wilyer Abreu has stepped to the plate 6 times this season.

He's gotten on base every time 🔥

DraftKings, FanDuel MLB DFS Stacks

1. Atlanta vs. Randy Vazquez

Atlanta has been off to a tough start, but with Spencer Schwellenbach on the mound, they should gain a lead and hopefully hold it in this one. Randy Vazquez has been blown up by lefties, and if those guys can get to him, it could be an early night for Randy.

Fave combo - Olson, Harris III, Albies, Profar

2. Red Sox vs. Tyler Mahle

The Red Sox had the hits but could not convert in the end, resulting in their loss yesterday. Duran and Abreu have been scorching hot, though and I expect them to take advantage of the veteran arm in Tyler Mahle.

Fave combo - Duran, Abreu, Devers, Story

3. Dodgers vs. Reese Olson

This Dodgers lineup is just too good, from top to bottom, they can hurt you. Reese Olson had a rough spring,g and if that translates here to the regular season, then the Dodgers are going to have a field day with him.

Fave Combo - Ohtani, Betts, Freeman, Muncy
