MLB DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Sunday, May 5
How do you plan to beat the field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
stlcardinals84: There is some good high-end pitching today, but I am taking a stand here. Freddy Peralta is the pitcher that I want. His stuff has been fantastic in 2024, and the walks are no longer an issue. Tarik Skubal and Nestor Cortes have major weather concerns, while I don’t trust the Joe Ryan chalk. Give me Peralta as the clear SP1 choice over the other three options.
Krayton: As much as I love Freddy Peralta today (similar to Tyler Glasnow yesterday), I still will be looking to get some lower-priced options, such as Garrett Crochet, Jon Gray, Hunter Brown, and Ryan Pepiot (DK) in my lineups. I have a lot of interest in Texas again today, and I like getting some savings at pitcher to afford some of the more expensive bats.
tcsmith031: The high-end pitching looks fabulous, but there are enough viable cheap pitchers out there to make casting a wide net a viable approach to tournaments today. Fully punting with Bailey Falter against the lowly Rockies is intriguing, while Garrett Crochet, Jon Gray, Hunter Brown, and even Ryan Feltner are likely to crack my GPP player pool.
TJ Zwarych: Freddy Peralta and Joe Ryan are fantastic, and although I’ll try to get even with the field, my priority for tournaments is to be overweight on the likes of Ryan Pepiot, Bailey Falter, and Garrett Crochet.
