DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (5/24/16): MLB DFS Advice

Does it amaze anyone else at how Matt Harvey is pitching? He dominated in his first season back from TJ surgery, but now he's struggling? It just doesn't make sense to me, but I'm hoping he's able to figure it out soon.

Well, let's get down to it!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball MLB lineup picks for DraftKings on 5/24/16. The DFS lineup picks will range from high-priced to low-priced options and identify options who will out-perform their expectations, including sleepers and value plays on DraftKings.

 

DFS Lineup Stacks to Target on DraftKings

 

Los Angeles DodgersWright has looked great this season in the Minors, but the MLB is a different beast and Wright struggled in previous years in the MiLB. The Dodgers don't have the best offense in the MLB, but teams seem to dominate the Reds pitching, and it's a great idea to attack that tonight.

Texas RangersIf you are a fan of using Vegas odds, this is the stack for you. The Rangers are a -123 favorite in a game set at 10 runs, which is one of the highest over/unders for a game outside of Coors this season. They get a great matchup against Chacin and the Angles, and Texas can be used in all leagues.

Boston Red SoxThe Red Sox get a good matchup against De La Rosa in a hitter friendly stadium tonight. De La Rosa has an ERA over 10 this season, and the Red Sox have one of the best offenses in the MLB. The Red Sox are an elite stack tonight.

 

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider on DraftKings

 

Stephen StrasburgStrasburg gets a great matchup against the Mets, who are dealing with a few injuries right now. He's a -168 favorite in a game set at 7 runs, and Strasburg is an elite option tonight. He hasn't allowed many home runs this season, and that's how New York does most of their damage, and Strasburg can be used in all leagues.

Jeff SamardzijaShark has looked great this season, as he has a 6-2 record, 2.66 ERA, and 7.7 K/9 through his first nine starts. He gets an elite matchup against the Padres tonight, and he dominated them in his last start. He's a -200 favorite in a game set at 7 runs, and he can be used in all leagues.

 

DFS Infielders to Consider on DraftKings

Catcher (C)

Matt WietersDraftKings has been pricing their players more based on matchup than production. Wieters has been on fire recently, as he's averaging nearly 10 fantasy points per game over his last 10 games. He also gets a good matchup against Fister, and he can be used in all leagues.

First Base (1B)

Hanley RamirezHanRam has been on fire recently, and he gets an elite matchup against De La Rosa tonight. He has been better against left-handed pitching in his career, and Ramirez can be used in all leagues.

Second Base (2B)

Howie KendrickKendrick has been quietly heating up for the Dodgers, as he's hitting over .300 over his last 10 games. He gets a great matchup against Wright tonight, as well. With that being said Kendrick still comes with a ton of risk, and he's best suited for GPPs tonight.

Shortstop (SS)

Xander BogaertsAny time Bogaerts faces left-handed pitching, he needs to be considered. He's hitting .417 against lefties this season, and De La Rosa looked terrible before he was injured. Bogaerts is a safe option with tons of upside, and he can be used in all leagues.

Third Base (3B)

Danny ValenciaValencia has certainly cooled off a bit recently, but he is still hitting nearly .350 with great power over his last 10 games. He has tremendous upside for his price tag, and he gets a decent matchup against Karns. Valencia can be used in all leagues.

 

DFS Outfielders to Consider on DraftKings

 

Mookie BettsIf you're stacking the BoSox, Betts is a must tonight. Bradley Jr. gets all of the attention, but Betts is averaging 15.2 fantasy points per game over his last 10 games. He has played well against left-handed pitching in his career, and he can be used in all leagues.

Yoenis CespedesCespedes can be had at a discount tonight because of his terrible matchup. Cespedes has been on fire recently, though, and he can hit any pitcher in the MLB. He's best suited for GPPs because of the matchups, but he's a good option at his low price tag tonight.

Leonys MartinMartin has been on fire recently, and he's now leading off for the Mariners with Ketel Marte injured. Martin is hitting over .400 over his last 10 games, and he has been consistently scoring double digit fantasy points. Martin can be used in all leagues.
