Your DFS Pitching Picks for July 2
Patrick Corbin vs. Miami Marlins
DraftKings $11,100, FanDuel $10,600
At home this season Patrick Corbin has been sensational. He holds a 2.17 ERA and a 9.60 K/9. This is the same story with the sorry Marlins that we should all want to attack daily in DFS. Corbin should be major chalk and I still love him in DFS tournaments even with the chalk.
Charlie Morton vs. Baltimore Orioles
DraftKings $10,600, FanDuel $10,800
Morton has had a solid first half of the season. I always like taking pitchers in Tampa Bay in DFS as I see it more pitcher-friendly. Morton has been dominating righties, holding them to a .179 BAA and he is slashing lefties to a 12.02 K/9. I’m never scared of Baltimore outside of Trey Mancini. If you don’t trust or want leverage on Corbin I would go with Morton.
Matt Boyd @ Chicago White Sox
DraftKings $10,100, FanDuel $10,000
This is my pay up high DFS tournament upside play of the day. Boyd has been a little shaky of late, but he figured it out last time he pitched. Boyd always has that very high strikeout upside that we search for in DFS tournaments, especially on the road. Boyd turns it up a notch to get strikeouts as he holds a 12.90 K/9 on the road. I love Boyd here against a White Sox team that strikes out a ton.
Matt Strahm vs. San Francisco Giants
DraftKings $6,900, FanDuel $7,600
Strahm is my favorite pay down DFS option with the opponent and the field. San Diego is a very pitcher friendly park and the Giants are a very pitcher friendly team, as they are horrible. Strahm holds a solid 9.42 K/9 against lefties, which I’m looking for, as he has to go through Belt and Panik. I’ll never be scared of this Giants offense and Strahm helps you get in Coors.
