TX's MLB DFS Breakdown

TX’s Daily Fantasy Intro:

What’s up, 4DEEP?! We have six games on the FanDuel Early Slate today. Let’s get into it!

TX’s Elite Pitching:

  • Tyler Glasnow – (TB vs. BOS) – FD: $11.3k – Heavy favorite at home in a pitcher’s park. Glasnow averages 20% more fantasy points at home and Boston has a .220 batting average against him in 40 at bats. Over their last three games, the Red Sox are averaging 11 Ks.
  • Logan Gilbert – (SEA @ CIN) – FD: $10.2k – Road favorite against the Reds today. The one red flag is it’s a hitters’ park. The Reds have a 25% K-rate to righties. Gilbert has averaged 48.5 FPPG over his last two games.

TX’s Mid-Tier Pitching:

  • Hyun Jin Ryu – (TOR @ OAK) – FD: $9.7k – Heavy favorite with a favorable park shift taking on the A’s today. The A’s have a 24% K-rate to lefties. Ryu scores 39% more fantasy points on the road. From a Statcast perspective, he is in the top 90% in exit velo and top 80% in average distance.
  • Michael Wacha – (SD vs. PHI) – FD: $9.1k – Not a fan of picking on the Phillies really, but the slate is limited, and Wacha is in a pitcher-friendly park. He has a decent floor and has scored 42 FPPG over his last five home games and 35 FPPG over his last eight games.

TX’s Door #3 Pitcher:

  • Zach Davies – (ARI vs. COL) – FD: $6.7k – I feel gross mentioning him, but we have a favorable match-up against the Rockies today. Davies scores 24% more fantasy points at home and has averaged 35 FPPG over his last two.
