MLB DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Sunday, September 6
Who is your favorite hitter to spend up for in cash games?
stlcardinals84: Alec Burleson (FD) / Pete Crow-Armstrong (DK)
Krayton: Alec Burleson (FD) / Bobby Witt Jr. (DK)
TJ Zwarych: Bobby Witt Jr.
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?
stlcardinals84: This is one of the least exciting weekend slates we have seen this season, and it’s a bit of a bummer that it comes on the final Sunday anyone is going to care about baseball. I’m going to tone down my play a little bit today, with around 7-8 entries in the large-field contests. I plan to be overweight on Gavin Williams by a country mile as my clear SP1, while I also like playing some Cesar Perdomo as a $4,000 pitching option on DK. I’ll mix and match my stacks because I really don’t love much, but I plan to be overweight on the Blue Jays and Red Sox for sure.
Krayton: I will be playing my usual single-entry contests along with 20-max contests. On FanDuel, I will be heavily stacking the Coors Field game on both sides. On DK, I am looking to game stack the Blue Jays and Royals once again. For pitching, I like the idea of playing Gavin Williams at the top and Cesar Perdomo as the cheap option on DK to get the bats I want. That will be a combination I will be overweight on. On FD, Gavin Williams, Paul Skenes, Aaron Nola, and Cesar Perdomo are the pitchers that are in my core.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll be playing 150 lineups in large-field tournaments. Since there aren’t many standout offenses on the slate, I’ll be keeping a really tight pitching pool consisting of Gavin Williams, Payton Tolle, Aaron Nola, and Cesar Perdomo so that I can mix and match the different stacks on the slate. The Blue Jays vs. Royals game will be my priority, but I’ll get pieces of almost every team.
Who is your favorite pitcher (when considering price, matchup, projected ownership, etc.) on the board and why?

About the Author
Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
