For this massive 14-game DFS slate tonight on DraftKings, we are going to do something a little different. Because of the number of players available, I will give you one from each salary tier for each position. There will be a high-end tier, a mid-range, and a cheap option. For the players the tiers will work like this:
Pitchers:
High-End: $9,000+
Mid-Range: $7,600-$8,900
Cheap: $7,500-
Batters:
High-End: $4,600+
Mid-Range: $3,600-$4,500
Cheap: $3,500-
In the interest of transparency as well as wanting to see how this goes, I will post the results on Sunday’s DFS article so stay tuned.
Be sure to check us out daily for our DFS content.
On the Mound
High-End: Alek Manoah @ Milwaukee Brewers ($9,500) – Better option than the $10,000+ guys as they will all be facing tough offenses.
Mid-Range: Dylan Bundy vs. Colorado Rockies ($7,700) – Pitched well last time out and we know how Colorado is on the road.
Cheap: Cole Irvin @ Kansas City Royals ($6,400) – Irvin is solid and he just put up 20.7 DK points against these Royals on the 18th.
On the Dirt
First Base
High-End: Paul Goldschmidt ($5,500) – If you have the money, you get the best NL hitter into your lineup.
Mid-Range: Jose Abreu ($4,000) – Abreu is heating up with the weather.
Cheap: Hunter Dozier ($3,000) – Could be getting hot.
Second Base
High-End: Andres Gimenez ($4,600) – He is a safe play with a floor similar to Luis Arraez but $700 cheaper.
Mid-Range: Ketel Marte ($4,400) – Facing a youngster at home and has nearly nine DK points per game over his last 10.
Cheap: Orlando Arcia ($3,500) – Arcia has slotted right into the Braves lineup after Ozzie Albies went down. Take advantage of the price.
Third Base
High-End: Jose Ramirez ($6,000) – One of the best players in baseball needs to be there if you can afford him.
Mid-Range: Patrick Wisdom ($3,800) – Three straight multi-hit games will get you in here.
Cheap: Ryan McMahon ($3,100) – he went 6-for13 in Miami, so the road hasn’t hurt him on this trip.
Shortstop
High-End: Carlos Correa ($5,100) – Has a 1.043 OPS with 20 hits in 13 games since coming off the IL on June 8.
Mid-Range: Kyle Farmer ($4,200) – Another high floor player, Farmer has 16 hits in his last 10 games.
Cheap: Nico Hoerner ($3,000) – Here is another guy that just seems to hit and facing Andre Pallante shouldn’t scare him.
On the Grass
High-End: Yordan Alvarez ($5,700) – Absolute masher even if he does face Luis Severino.
Mid-Range: Andrew Vaughn ($3,900) – This guy is raking lately, batting .478 over his last 10.
Cheap: Alex Verdugo ($3,100) – Since taking a breather on Saturday, Verdugo has a little four-game hitting streak going.
Good Luck with all of your DFS lineups.
