DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/10/18): MLB DFS Lineups

We've got three slates on DraftKings tonight, with the main slate starting at 7 pm. This means that the Giants-Phillies matchup won't be included, but the nine other games are good to go.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings on 5/10/18. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.

You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for sites like FanDuel, and other sports too. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to hit me up on Twitter (@TroyKlauder).

DraftKings Starting Pitchers

Miles Mikolas - P, at SD ($10,200)

Mikolas gets the best matchup you can ask for as a right-handed pitcher as he takes on the Padres on Thursday. The Padres have just a .286 wOBA versus righties this year, the third-lowest mark in the league, as well as the highest strikeout rate at 27.5%. Furthermore, Petco Park is one of the best pitcher's parks in all of baseball. Mikolas has a 2.70 ERA through six starts with just two walks on the entire season, so he should have no issues with this Padres lineup.

Garrett Richards - P, vs MIN ($8,900)

Richards is priced much cheaper than he deserves to be, especially coming off of his last outing where he went 6 2/3 innings scoreless with eight strikeouts. Richards has a monster 30.0% K-rate this year, so he's got a ton of upside tonight. The Twins are merely an average lineup against righties with a .316 wOBA. If Richards can stay healthy, he might not be this cheap again all season, so take advantage while you can.

DraftKings Infielders

Yasmani Grandal - C, vs CIN ($3,600)

It's surprising to see Grandal with such a modest price tag when he's been one of the best catchers in fantasy baseball this season, with a .282/.385/.500 line and a 149 wRC+. He's also cut his strikeout rate significantly from last year, down to 20.8%. Opposing starter Tyler Mahle has a very high 2.06 HR/9 with a 4.92 FIP, so Grandal should have plenty of production against him out of the Dodgers three-hole.

Lucas Duda - 1B, at BAL ($3,400)

Duda has been cold this season, but Thursday presents the ultimate buy low opportunity as he takes on Chris Tillman in Oriole Park. Tillman has had an outrageously horrific season, putting up a 9.24 ERA with more walks than strikeouts after posting a 7.84 ERA in 2017. He's a pitcher you want to target, especially when he's at home in one of the best parks for power numbers. Don't forget that Duda hit 30 home runs last year!

Jonathan Schoop - 2B, vs KC ($3,500)

On the other side of the Royals-Orioles matchup, Schoop also gets to enjoy the park factors of Camden Yards. He's at a very cheap price since returning from the disabled list, considering that he put up some monster fantasy numbers last year, batting .293 with 32 home runs and 105 RBI. He'll get lots of chances for those RBI batting cleanup for the O's.

Yangervis Solarte - 3B, vs SEA ($3,900)

Solarte has been one of baseball's hottest hitters in the last 15 days, batting .311 with a .918 OPS and four home runs. His full-season numbers are just as impressive, as Solarte is rocking a 134 wRC+ on the year. He's playing in a great hitter's ballpark in Toronto against Mariners starter Mike Leake, owner of a 6.28 ERA.

Jean Segura - SS, at TOR ($4,900)

Segura has hit left-handed pitching very well this season, putting up a .346 wOBA against lefties. Segura has lots of value as the Mariners two-hole hitter, as he will get lots of plate appearances and the opportunity for both runs and RBI.

DraftKings Outfielders

Lorenzo Cain - OF, at COL ($4,600)

Four words that every fantasy player wants whispered in their ear: "Playing in Coors Field." Coors Field is the top hitter's park in the league, so guys like Lorenzo Cain have the potential for a huge night. Cain has been a fantasy catalyst atop the Brewers lineup, with four homers and eight steals while batting .274. He's a strong play on any night, and a can't miss bat tonight at Coors.

Marcell Ozuna - OF, at SD ($3,700)

There's no question that Ozuna needs to get his act together. At this price, though, I'm willing to bet that his talent will shine through. Ozuna had a monster season in 2017 where he put up a 142 wRC+ with 37 bombs. He might not put up those numbers this season, but he's certainly can't be as bad as he's been so far. I like him in GPP formats for an under-the-radar high upside play.
