Fanduel MLB DFS: Monday, August 10th Main Slate

FanDuel MLB Daily Lineups: Monday Main Slate Summary

Happy Monday! We start the week off with a nice 9-game MLB DFS Main Slate on Fanduel. Unlike the weekend slates full of stud pitching, tonight can get ugly quickly. On slates like these, I think it’s best to focus in on one or two pitchers and really narrow down your player pool. It’s a nice night to take a stand and it’s also a Coors Field night…

In regards to weather, it looks like a relatively quiet night outside of the White Sox @ Tigers game (I won’t roster a pitcher from that game due to rain delay concerns unless things change before lock). Let’s get to it on FanDuel tonight.

MLB DFS: Top Pitching Plays

On FanDuel, I think it’s quite important to ensure you roster an arm that has short odds in Vegas to get the win and someone that is likely to go 6+ innings to get those Quality Start bonuses FanDuel applies. Here are the pitchers that fit that mold tonight:

  • Kyle Gibson (-190) – Mariners have the highest implied k-rate on this slate. Gibson is a big favorite. No need to get cute in cash games, use Gibson.
  • Patrick Corbin (-122) – not a big favorite tonight, but likely to lead the slate in strikeouts (6.5K prop with juice on the over)
  • Dustin May (-155) – The Padres have a very high implied k-rate and have a putrid .138 ISO against right-handers. May looked great last time out and should be able to ride the momentum for his second win of the season.
  • Lance McCullers (-200) – Not really a fan of his as he’s looked below average in last two starts, but San Francisco has the third lowest implied total on the slate and have been striking out over 23% of the time against right-handers. McCullers is a big favorite for a reason.
  • Dallas Keuchel (-150) – Again, check the weather before lock. As of now (1PM CST), it looks very risky to roster Keuchel tonight. If the anticipated rain blows over, Keuchel will post a quality start and a win just by showing up at the stadium.
  • Ryan Yarbrough (-145) – Yarbrough is a nice pivot for GPP lineups and salary relief to fit in some Coors Field exposure. He got beat up by this Boston lineup his last time out, but he has slate leading swing-and-miss stuff against a Red Sox lineup posting a below average .145 ISO against lefties.

All in all, I don’t think it’s necessary to pay up for Patrick Corbin tonight (especially in cash games). We all know we want to get some exposure to Coors Field tonight and it will be very difficult to do so if you roster Corbin. Having said that, I do like Corbin a lot for GPP’s for that very same reason.

MLB DFS: Hitting Stacks, Value, and Best Plays

Well, it’s a Coors Field night… so the offense is pretty easy. Stack the chalky Rockies and Diamondbacks. You know who the studs are that you want to play, but you can also find some value with guys like Elias Diaz ($2,500), Jake Lamb ($2,500), Stephen Vogt ($2,500), Matt Kemp ($3,300), Kole Calhoun ($3,300), and Garrett Hampson ($3,000).

If you’re looking for some other stacks, I’m a big fan of getting some exposure to both the Chicago White Sox (5.0 implied run total) and the Los Angeles Dodgers at home with a 5.05 implied run total. Both offenses should be rather low-owned tonight and offer a nice pivot off of Coors Field.

As lineups start to post for the night, I’ll update this article with some of my top value plays, but for the most part, I’m all about Coors Field tonight.
