We have a two-game MLB playoff slate where we have both Championship games in action. Options are limited across the board, but let's take a look.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel on 10/13/18. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.

FanDuel DFS Pitcher
Hyun-Jin Ryu - P, LOS @ MIL (FD - $9,700)
You have to roster a pitcher tonight but we are dealing with an only two-game slate, so the options are a bit thin. Not to mention we have game 1 of the ALCS kicking off which means two aces are on the mound, but they are also super expensive. Wade Miley is pitching for the Brewers, who isn't the best pitcher so that naturally leaves us with Ryu. He has allowed a total of one earned run in his last four starts while adding eight or more strikeouts twice in that span.
FanDuel DFS Infielders
Jesus Aguilar - 1B, MIL vs LOS (FD - $3,900)
Even if you are rostering Ryu, you'll have to consider having some Brewers in your lineup, just based on the way lineup construction shakes out today. He comes in with a .389 wOBA and a .267 ISO vs left-handed pitcher this season. He has home runs in back-to-back games right now.
Brock Holt - 2B, BOS vs HOU (FD - $2,500)
Holt is as cheap as they come on a two-game slate and if he gets the starts, he will be hard to pass on simply from the salary savings perspective. He will have the platoon advantage today versus Justin Verlander, but this will still be a very tough matchup.
Justin Turner - 3B, LOS @ MIL (FD - $3,900)
With all of the rain in the area around Boston, Milwaukee should have the best hitting conditions available. Last night we saw plenty of offense from these two games, so let's go right back to the well. Turner has a .433 wOBA and .244 ISO vs LHP this season.
FanDuel DFS Outfielders
George Springer - OF, HOU @ BOS (FD - $3,800)
Springer had three home runs in the series versus the Indians and will come in with the platoon advantage tonight, but it will be a tough one against Chris Sale. He has a .190 ISO vs left-handed pitchers this season which is good enough on a short slate.
Jackie Bradly Jr. - OF, BOS vs HOU (FD - $2,500)
JBJ is another "value" option on this slate and will be coming in with the platoon advantage. He only had two hits in the prior series, but his savings can allow you to get up to a bigger Red Sox stack if that is the route you are going today.
