FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/29/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Get ready for another Saturday of MLB action, with six games on the main slate. It's a good day to go cheap on pitching to try to fit in a Coors stack. If you're not comfortable taking this risk, then you should pay up for Dylan Bundy.

In this article, we'll identify players who will help you win a cash game and build your bankroll or take down a GPP for a big pay-day. Every player on this list is on one of my own FanDuel teams.

I'll be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for the FanDuel main slate on 8/29/2020. Be sure to also check out all the MLB player news including late scratches, and the projected and confirmed daily MLB lineups for each DFS slate. You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for sites like DraftKings, and other sports too.

FanDuel DFS Pitchers

Dylan Bundy - LAA vs SEA ($9,100)

Bundy has slowed down a bit after a phenomenal start, allowing four runs in consecutive outings, while failing to pitch more than 5.2 innings. He gets the perfect matchup to bounce back here against the Mariners, a team that he threw a complete-game gem against earlier in the season.

Trevor Cahill - SF @ ARZ ($7,000)

Cahill is coming off a dominant start where he went 5.1 innings, allowing one hit for one run, while walking two and striking out eight. He takes on a Diamondbacks team that came into Friday night with only 19 runs in their last eight games. Don't expect Cahill to pitch deep into this game, but some strikeout upside here. His cheap price allows you to include some big bats in prime matchups, so we'll take the risk here.

FanDuel DFS Infielders

Trevor Story - SS, COL vs. SD ($4,500)

Story is worthy of his lofty price tag against LHP Adrian Morejon and the Padres' bullpen. Story has been a lefty masher this season, slashing .343/.465/.743 coming into Friday's game. Going cheap at pitcher allows us to fit in a pricey bat like Story.

Rafael Devers - 3B, BOS vs. WAS ($3,400)

Devers has been one of my favorite plays of late due to his slow start and low price. He's starting to come around of late, going 12-for-39 (.308) with five runs, two home runs, and 11 RBI. Devers gets a good matchup against RHP Anibal Sanchez, who has allowed six home runs in only 25 innings this season.

Jake Cronenworth - 2B, SD @ COL ($3,300)

Cronenworth continues to surprise the baseball world, coming into Friday's game hitting safely in 11 consecutive games. He takes on RHP Antonio Senzatela, who just got rocked by the Dodgers to the tune of six runs in only 5.1 innings in a game where he allowed four home runs.

Brandon Belt - 1B, SF @ ARZ ($3,300)

Belt has been terrific this season, coming into Friday's game slashing .315/.390/.589 with five home runs and 14 RBI. He takes on RHP Luke Weaver, who has allowed eight home runs in only 24.1 innings this season. Belt is seeing the ball well right now, so he's a solid option whenever he faces a mediocre righty.

FanDuel DFS Outfielders

Matt Kemp - OF, COL vs. SD ($3,200)

Kemp at Coors against a lefty is always a solid option, as the veteran has slashed .400/.471/.467 with a -5.9 K-BB% against southpaws at home. He makes for a more affordable Rockies' option to pair with Story in a great matchup against Morejon.

Raimel Tapia - OF, COL vs. SD ($3,100)

Tapia is another affordable Rockies hitter. He's become a fixture at the leadoff spot and has gone 9-28 (.321) over his last eight games. Ride with the leadoff hitter for the Rockies in a likely slugfest. This gives us a nice trio of Tapia + Kemp + Story to stack.

Victor Robles - OF, WAS @ BOS ($2,400)

Robles is starting to come alive at the plate, coming off a 3-4 game where he put up two runs and one double. He's at a cheap enough price to hope this is the start of a hot streak in a great matchup against the disastrous Red Sox pitching staff.
