FanDuel DFS Pitcher
Mike Foltynewicz - P, ATL vs LOS (FD - $9,400)
Folty is the best pitcher on this short two-game slate, which should put him at the top of the list today. He comes in with a 26.6% strikeout rate this season and is up against the Dodgers who have a 22.6% strikeout rate vs right-handed pitcher this season. He has 14 strikeouts and allowed three earned runs in his last two starts, which is a nice bit of consistency to bring into the playoffs for the first time.
FanDuel DFS Infielders
Jesus Aguilar - 1B, MIL vs COL (FD - $3,700)
Aguilar is up against Antonio Senzatela, who is giving up a .345 wOBA and 1.42 HR/9 to right-handed hitters this season, which plays right into the hands of Aguilar. He comes in with a .263 ISO vs RHP, putting him in a spot to hit one out.
Johan Camargo - 3B, ATL vs LOS (FD - $2,800)
Camargo is a bit of a cheaper option, which is great since we are dealing with an only two-game slate and fighting to find any value we can. He has the platoon advantage against Hyun-Jin Ryu, who is giving up a 37% fly ball rate and a 35% hard contact rate to righties.
Trevor Story - SS, COL @ MIL (FD - $3,800)
This is a negative park shift for the Rockies since they are away from home, but this is still a very good pitchers park, so we could be in for a good bit of runs this series. The Brewers are doing a bullpen game today so he comes in with a .244 ISO vs RHP and a .355 ISO vs LHP, power from both sides of the plate.
FanDuel DFS Outfielders
Christian Yelich - OF, MIL vs COL (FD - $4,800)
Future MVP Christian Yelich will be at home to start the playoffs, where he and the Brewers have a solid matchup to get things going. He comes in with a massive .425 wOBA and a .281 ISO vs right-handed pitchers. He is at home in a great hitter's park which should give this game some nice potential upside.
Joc Pederson - OF, LOS @ ATL (FD - $3,100)
Pederson comes in with a very solid .374 wOBA and .295 ISO vs right-handed pitchers this season. Even if you are rostering Folty in your lineups, still think you can have some Pederson in there, since he is always good for a solo shot and won't negatively impact your lineup too much.
