Pitcher Early Corey Kluber FD 12100 DK 12600 Opponent - CHW (Reynaldo Lopez) Park - CLE FD - 46.74 DK - 25.96 After looking like he’d really found his strikeout groove over the better part of late May and most of June, Kluber had a disaster of an outing against the Twins on Friday. He allowed four runs in five innings while striking out three. Dude got pulled after only 65 pitches and it will likely go down as his lowest-scoring game of the season. He’ll look to bounce back against the White Sox on Wednesday. Chicago strikes out at the fourth-highest clip in the majors against righty pitching and are below average in team wOBA in that platoon split. Despite the fiasco last game, Kluber is still averaging right around seven innings per start and carries an insane 9.6:1 K:BB ratio this season. Those are just elite peripherals and should work to his favor against the free-swinging White Sox. He’s a big-time -290 opening favorite and for good reason. Ross Stripling FD 9400 DK 9700 Opponent - CHC (Jon Lester) Park - CHC FD - 35.41 DK - 18.7 Stripling has put up nothing short of ace-level numbers since entering the starting rotation. In his last 38 innings (6 starts) he's struck out 54 batters and allowed only six earned runs. He's also limited the walks, allowing only two free passes in that stretch. There are few pitchers in baseball who can claim this kind of on-the-mound dominance. Any concerns about him sticking in the starting rotation or not getting stretched out with the Dodgers' finicky pitch counts are long gone. This isn't an ideal matchup with the Cubs who rank among the best in the league against righties, but the wind in Wrigley is blowing in on Wednesday and should help reduce some of the power. Main Charlie Morton FD 10000 DK 12200 Opponent - TB (Nathan Eovaldi) Park - HOU FD - 43.13 DK - 23.1 After a very strong start to the...

DFSR's Daily Fantasy MLB Podcast for FanDuel & DraftKings Tuesday 6/19/18 DFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis are back at it on the baseball podcast discussing a full slate of Tuesday action for FanDuel and DraftKings. They start off with the discussion about the ace-level arms of Justin Verlander and Chris Sale taking the mound. It's a tough choice between the two (assuming you can't play them together on DraftKings). Verlander has a slightly better matchup and money line, but Sale is clearly the better of the two arms. They also look at guys like Domingo German, Vincent Velasquez and Jameson Taillon coming in the middle tier of starting pitchers on DraftKings. On the offensive side of things, there's a game in Coors with a run line creeping towards 12. Nolan Arenado against a weak lefty is always a great spot and today could be a time to jam him into lineups. Plus they look at a bunch of other teams facing gas can arms. Be sure to subscribe...

Daily Fantasy MLB Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - 6/18/18 Fresh off the weekend, we have an MLB slate just ripe for the picking. I always get excited when we see top end arms and some offenses in great spots against gas cans. There's Trevor Bauer, Gerrit Cole and a game in Coors. What more could we ask for?

Pitcher Trevor Bauer FD 11200 DK 12400 Opponent - CHW (Dylan Covey) Park - CLE FD - 48.1 DK - 26.12 It hasn’t exactly come about overnight, but Bauer now needs to enter the conversation as one of the elite pitchers in the game. He’s steadily improved just about every season and 2018 is shaping up to be the best of them all. He’s putting down batters at an elite 31% K rate while also keeping the walks under three per nine. His 3.04 xFIP is one of the best in the big leagues and, if anything, his price is still in check because he has*only*  five wins on the season. That’s really the only number holding back some of his top end performances. The White Sox strike out at the sixth-highest rate in the majors against righty pitching this season at 25% though they aren’t exactly pushovers on the offensive end. There’s some pop those bats. But Bauer enters as the top money line starting pitcher of the slate at -240 and, considering the price, will likely be the chalk for cash games. Gerrit Cole FD 11000 DK 13000 Opponent - TB (Undecided) Park - HOU FD - 44.13 DK - 24.04 At the time of this writing, there’s no Vegas line on this game but I suspect Cole comes in somewhere around the -275 range (or higher) considering the matchup, team and current form for the righty. The strikeout numbers haven’t completely sustained from the beginning of the season when he put up double digit K games in five of his first seven outings. But he’s settled into somewhere around 10 K’s per nine in the short term and I suspect that to be the regression point for Cole’s season strikeout numbers. This Tampa Bay Rays team doesn’t strike out a ton in their current construction but Cole likely comes out as an overwhelming win favorite and is able to dial up the swings and misses. Andrew Suarez FD...

DFSR's Daily Fantasy MLB Podcast for FanDuel & DraftKings Friday 6/15/18  DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the Friday podcast discussing a full slate of action for FanDuel and DraftKings MLB. They begin with a breakdown of some of the pitching options and how this might be a night to get some solid arms on the cheap. Ross Stripling appears too cheap on both sites in a matchup against the Giants. He makes for an excellent cash play all around. Then, of course, there is Corey Kluber who is getting better as the season moves forward. He’s been able to go so many innings per game. They also look at Zack Godley, Kevin Gausman and James Paxton who is facing the Red Sox. For stacks, there’s a game in Texas between the Rockies and Rangers that has the highest implied total of the day. All of this and much more on a full Friday podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings MLB.
