MLB DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Saturday, May 25
How do you plan to beat the field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
stlcardinals84: There are two clear top offenses on this slate- the Phillies and the Dodgers. Both have elite upside, with the Phillies in Coors Field and the Dodgers in Cincinnati. However, I prefer to be underweight on the Dodgers as full stacks; I prefer targeting them for one-off power against Hunter Greene. The Phillies profile as the better full stack against an enigmatic pitcher in Dakota Hudson, and as such, I will be far overweight on PHI stacks and underweight on LAD stacks.
Krayton: I will be having a small pitching pool tonight, with Tanner Bibee being the guy I will be very overweight on. I also like Walker Buehler and Jordan Montgomery, and I will be taking an overweight stance on the Phillies tonight in Coors coming off a disappointing night. There are quite a few secondary stacks I am interested in, including the Diamondbacks, the Cubs, the Rockies, and even the Yankees facing Dylan Cease, where I feel I can get different pairing them with the Phillies.
tcsmith031: I won’t be fully fading the Phillies, but I do plan to be under the field on full stacks. Ownership should be more condensed on tonight’s smaller slate, and their implied run total north of 6 won’t fly under the radar. I don’t mind allocating that salary to other expensive stacks, including the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, and even Yankees on this slate.
TJ Zwarych: Tanner Bibee will still be my top option and likely my highest-owned pitcher, but I plan to take some shots in GPPs on low-owned pitchers to pair with my Dodgers and Phillies stacks. I’ll take shots on Jameson Taillon and Jose Soriano alongside the chalkier options.
