MLB DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Monday, June 22
Who is your favorite hitter to spend up for in cash games?
headChopper: Wilyer Abreu
ebeimfohr: Shohei Ohtani
boggslite: Wilyer Abreu
What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
headChopper: I am playing multiple entries in large-field tournaments. I think there are plenty of good stacks, so my lineups will all feature heavy stacking of some sort. I will be underweight on the Coors Field game and overweight on some of the stacks right below those teams. My pitching will be a tight pool of around 5–7 options, focusing on the high-strikeout pitchers.
ebeimfohr: I will have an extremely tight player pool, with only a handful of pitchers and stacks on my menu, so I am focusing primarily on smaller-field tournaments. In these contests, I will probably be locking onto chalkier pitchers on both sites, so for my hitters, I’ll be moving away from options like Coors Field and onto what projects as lesser-owned offenses that are, in my opinion, some of the very best of the slate.
boggslite: Large-field tournaments – There’s not a lot to love when it comes to pitching tonight, and while I expect a Dylan Cease / Kyle Bradish combination to be very popular, I will likely eat the chalk and differentiate my lineups with my hitters. I won’t completely fade the Coors Field game, but I also won’t be all-in on that game, as the Brewers, Dodgers, and Orioles have the potential to outscore those teams in their matchups.
Who is your favorite pitcher (when considering price, matchup, projected ownership, etc.) on the board and why?
