FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (7/25/16): MLB DFS Advice

Welcome to Week 16 of the baseball season. We have 11 games on tap tonight with everything kicking off at 7:05 ET. In this article I will be providing you with options on FanDuel as you construct your lineup for July 25th, 2016.

As for Vegas insights, the only heavy moneyline favorites tonight are the Blue Jays (-255), Cubs (-200), and Orioles (-155).  The contests with the highest over/unders are the Athletics-Rangers (10.5) and Tigers-Red Sox (10).

Editor's Note: RotoBaller offers the best Premium MLB Subscription - only $1.99 per week. All the tools you need to help win your seasonal and daily leagues: Hitter & Pitcher Streamers, Matchup Ratings for every player, Under-the-Radar Surgers for AVG, HR, Ks, plus daily DFS Cheat Sheets, Lineup Picks, Expert Lineups, Stacks and Avoids. 

 

DFS Lineup Stacks to Target for FanDuel

Phillies versus Jarred Cosart

Sometimes when people zig you need to zag, and that is the case here. Hardly anyone is going to consider the Phillies a viable stack for tonight's slate, given their bottom-five ranking in offensive categories versus RHP. But Cosart is making his first start since April 22, and he was hardly impressive in the minors (30/25 K/BB in 50 IP). If you fork up for Jake Arrieta or Noah Syndergaard, keep the Phils in mind as you build out your lineup.

Tigers versus Drew Pomeranz

Pomeranz had a shaky debut to DH-life as a pitcher, giving up five runs in three plus innings versus the Giants. Things won't get any easier versus a Tigers lineup that is heating up, notably Miguel Cabrera and Ian Kinsler. Tigers don't come cheap, but owners may be weary of a date with Pomeranz. Don't be.

Also Consider: Diamondbacks versus Chase Anderson

 

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider for FanDuel

Aaron Sanchez (SP, TOR) - $9,600

Sanchez has eclipsed 40 points in three of his last four starts and the Padres .670 OPS versus RHP is 29th in baseball. The Blue Jays should coast to a victory today versus Colin Rea, making this an easy win opportunity.

Anthony DeSclafani (SP, CIN) - $7,500

How is DeScal still under $8,000!? Here are his last six outings (FanDuel points): 45, 51, 38, 39, 45, 38. He's providing a safe floor while the Reds seem to enjoy providing him run support. Are you worried about a date with Jake Peavy? Me neither.

 

DFS Infielders to Consider for FanDuel

Catcher (C)

Evan Gattis (C, HOU) - $2,700

El Oso Blanco is on a roll right now, hitting three home runs in his past two games. He's a cheap source of power with a HR to his name versus opponent Michael Pineda.

First Base (1B)

Hanley Ramirez (1B, BOS) - $2,800

Speaking of en fuego, HanRam has consecutive 30 point games and has found his power stroke again. Justin Verlander is a tough draw, but at sub $3,000 this is well worth a share or two.

Also Consider: Edwin Encarnacion (1B, TOR) - $4,800

Second Base (2B)

Cesar Hernandez (2B, PHI) - $2,800

Hernandez followed up his 28 point Saturday with a 21 point Sunday and has three steals in his past five games. This is one of my main targets for Phillies stacks.

Shortstop (SS)

Marcus Semien (SS, OAK) - $3,200

Semien is quietly having a fantastic season (20 HR) and gets a juicy matchup tonight. He has a .945 OPS versus LHP and gets one here with Martin Perez.

Third Base (3B)

Jake Lamb (3B, ARI) - $3,600

Obligatory "Jake Lamb vs RHP" post. He has a .313/.383/.651 slash versus righties and has a great matchup with Chase Anderson tonight. Ownership should be low thanks his uninspiring week, which should only benefit tourney formats.

 

DFS Outfielders to Consider for FanDuel

Odubel Herrera (OF, PHI) - $4,000

Herrera is coming off a series with Pittsburgh in which he hit 7-for-13 with 5 R, HR, and 2 SB. He'll look to continue being the focal point of the Phillies lineup tonight.

George Springer (OF, HOU) - $3,500

Springer has averaged over 20 points in his last five games and has a HR versus opponent Michael Pineda. Look for him to stay hot here.

Mark Trumbo (OF, BAL) - $3,300

Everyone keeps waiting for Trumbo to regress but he keeps mashing. He hit homers 29 and 30 this weekend and continues to mash at home (.293, 16 HR). He's too cheap on this slate.

Also Consider: Giancarlo Stanton (OF, MIA) - $3,100 and Randall Grichuk (OF, STL) - $2,600
