Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Walker Buehler got roughed up in Sunday's loss versus the San Francisco Giants.

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's victory versus the San Francisco Giants.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/4/21): MLB DFS Lineups
The Saturday split is about the same as last Saturday. There are six early games, eight games on the main slate, and one game that bucked the trend of normal start times.

Clayton Kershaw Throws Simulated Game On Friday
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw (forearm) threw two innings during a simulated outing on Friday. The veteran lefty isn't scheduled to throw again until Sunday.
