MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Expert Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks For Today (3/30/25)

Aaron Nola - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Injury News

Andy's top DraftKings and FanDuel MLB DFS picks for today, Sunday, 3/30/25. His favorite daily fantasy baseball lineup sleepers and value picks for DFS on DraftKings and FanDuel.

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Today, we will look at a jam-packed Sunday slate on both DraftKings and FanDuel.

There are several games on this slate that we will emphasize that have a high projected run total. The clash between the Blue Jays and Orioles holds the highest O/U of nine runs.

This article will provide my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 3/30/2025, with the slate starting at 1:35 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

Aaron Nola vs. WSH ($9.2K DraftKings; $9.8K FanDuel)

Aaron Nola faced the Washington Nationals four times last season. Across 24 1/3 innings against Washington, Nola posted an impressive 1.85 ERA with a 1.19 WHIP. He did not allow a run in two of these starts and tallied at least five punchouts in two as well.

Jesus Luzardo tallied 11 punchouts against the Nats on Saturday, and Zack Wheeler tallied eight on Opening Day.

Max Meyer vs. PIT ($6.8K DraftKings; $7.2K FanDuel)

In spring training, Max Meyer tallied 11 strikeouts across 14 innings of work. He walked just two batters and allowed just one home run. Meyer has battled injuries throughout his young MLB career, but enters the 2025 season healthy.

Across 126 innings of Triple-A ball, the former third overall pick tallied 151 strikeouts in 126 innings of work. Facing a weak Pirates offense, Meyer is a strong value play on the slate.

Also consider: Andrew Heaney vs. PIT ($7.5K DraftKings; $8.1K FanDuel), Tanner Bibee vs. KC ($8.7K DraftKings; $9.1K FanDuel)

DraftKings, FanDuel Infielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Brandon Lowe- 2B, TB vs. Ryan Feltner ($4.3K DK; $3.1K FD)

Brandon Lowe was very productive against sliders last season, which should play well against Ryan Feltner. Felter threw his slider 20.5 percent of the time (second-most) last season, generating a poor .474 xSLG and a .360 xWOBA.

Last season, Lowe generated a strong .441 xSLG against sliders, which is the highest mark among players still on the Tampa Bay roster. In addition, against southpaws, Lowe posted a strong .835 OPS.

Adley Rutschman – C, BAL vs. Chris Bassitt ($4.9K DK; $3.3K FD)

Chris Bassitt had a disappointing 2024 campaign and will look to start his 2025 season against a tough Baltimore lineup. Last season, Bassitt threw his sinker 40.8 percent of the time. This pitch was ineffective as it generated a .421 xSLG and only a 12.8 percent whiff rate.

Baltimore backstop Adley Rutschman mashed sinkers (from right-handed pitching) last season, boasting a stellar .586 xSLG. He has already enjoyed a strong start to the 2025 season, tallying two home runs with four total hits.

Alec Bohm– 3B, PHI vs. Mitchell Parker ($5K DK; $3K FD)

Mitchell Parker saw the Phillies once last season and allowed 10 hits and nine earned runs across three innings. In this contest, Alec Bohm did some damage. Bohm took him deep when facing his primary pitch (his fastball).

When facing fastballs from left-handed pitching, Bohm generated an overall .563 xSLG with a .389 xwOBA. The Phillies are a great stack this afternoon, and Bohm should be at the top of the list.

Also consider: Ryan O'Hearn (BAL), Yandy Diaz (TB), Bryce Harper (PHI), Jordan Westburg (BAL)

 

DraftKings, FanDuel Outfielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Christian Yelich - OF, MIL vs. Marcus Stroman ($5K DK; $3.7K FD)

Christian Yelich generated a stellar .569 xSLG against sinkers in 2024, which should set him up for success against the Yankee right-hander Marcus Stroman. Last season, Stroman's primary pitch, his sinker, generated a hefty .301 BA with a .360 xwOBA. This pitch generated a low 13.9 percent put-away rate, and he gave up seven home runs with this pitch.

Even though Yelich has tallied just one hit through the first two games of the season, expect him to bounce back in a favorable matchup.

Kyle Schwarber - 1B (DK Only)/OF, PHI vs. Mitchell Parker ($5.9K DK; $3.9K FD)

Kyle Schwarber has already launched two long balls over his first two games, and I would suggest riding the hot hand in this matchup. When facing fastballs from left-handed pitching last season, Schwarber generated an impressive .555 xSLG with a stellar 50.0 percent hard-hit rate. He also posted a .411 xwOBA, which was the highest mark on the team last season, among players who saw more than 150 pitches in this situation.

He will face Parker, who throws a fastball 48.6 percent of the time, which generated a hefty .487 xSLG last season. Given Schwarber's successes against fastballs from southpaws, he is a great option.

Cedric Mullins- OF, BAL vs. Chris Bassitt ($4K DK; $2.9K FD)

My final outfielder to highlight is Cedric Mullins of Baltimore. Similar to Rutschman, Mullins enjoyed similar success against sinkers thrown by right-handed pitchers last season. In this situation, Mullins generated a .512 xSLG with a .421 xwOBA.

Last season, the Orioles began to deploy Mullins exclusively against right-handed pitching, which significantly improved his overall production. When facing right-handers last season, the 30-year-old posted a .245/.325/.441 line with 17 of his 18 long balls.

Also consider: Colton Cowser (BAL), Taylor Ward (LAA), Joc Pederson (TEX), Nick Castellanos (PHI)

 

DraftKings, FanDuel MLB DFS Stacks

1. Phillies vs. Mitchell Parker

As previously mentioned, the one time Parker faced this Philadelphia lineup last season, he allowed 10 hits and nine earned runs across just three innings of work. Through his first 151 innings of MLB action last summer, he posted a modest 4.29 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP.

He generated a 4.37 xERA with a .256 xBA. The Phillies have an elite matchup on this slate.

Fave combo - Bohm, Schwarber, Castellanos, Harper

2. Rays vs. Ryan Feltner

Last season, Feltner logged a career-high 162 1/3 innings and posted a 4.49 ERA with a 1.34 WHIP. He tallied strikeouts at a low 19.9 percent rate while placing in the 34th percentile in xERA. He also generated groundballs at a low 44.4 percent rate.

Feltner's two most-used pitchers last season (four-seamer and slider) generated a .428 xSLG and a .474 xSLG. Playing in a minor league ballpark should set the Rays up for success this afternoon.

Fave Combo - Lowe, Aranda, Diaz, Mead

3. Orioles vs. Chris Bassitt

My other stack to consider is the Baltimore Orioles facing Chris Bassitt. Last season, Bassitt struggled as he posted a high 4.16 ERA and a 1.46 WHIP across 171 innings of work. He placed in the 24th and 26th percentiles in xERA and xBA, respectively.

When facing Baltimore last season, he posted a 5.73 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP across 11 innings of work. The Orioles have also scored 23 runs across their first three contests.

Fave combo - Rutschman, Mullins, Westburg, Cowser
