Daily Fantasy Baseball Lineup Picks (6/20/17): MLB DFS Advice for FanDuel and DraftKings

We have a large Tuesday slate, which has been the pattern for the majority of the MLB season. That means we can tackle lineup construction in multiple different ways, as you can fill your lineup with mid-priced options or use a stars and scrubs type of lineup.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel on 6/20/2017. The DFS lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options, and of course, value plays

You can read our DraftKings DFS lineup picks as well. If you want to contact me, send me a message on Twitter at @BalesSJustin. Let's Cook.

Offensive Stacks

Cleveland Indians vs Chris Tillman

The Indians have been playing extremely well as a team, as they are hitting nearly .300 with good power over the last week. They get a good matchup tonight, as Tillman has struggled with an 8.08 ERA and 2.0 HR/9 through eight starts. Cleveland will also be playing in a hitter friendly stadium tonight. The Indians are -135 favorites in a game set at 10.5 runs, as well. They are a safe stack in all leagues on this slate.

Toronto Blue Jays vs Nick Martinez

The Blue Jays certainly aren't an elite offense, but they are in an elite spot tonight. They have been serviceable over the last week, as they have displayed upside, but they have also struggled in certain games. They will be playing in a hitter friendly stadium tonight, and they get a matchup against Martinez. He enters the game with a 4.67 ERA and 2.2 HR/9 through 10 games (nine starts). Toronto is currently a -225 favorite in a game set at 9.5 runs, which gives them the highest team total on the slate. They're a high upside stacking option tonight.

 

FanDuel DFS Pitchers

Chris Sale - P, at KC (DK - $13,200, FD - $11,700)

Sale has been one of the best pitchers in the MLB this season. Through 14 games, he has an 8-3 record, 2.82 ERA, and 12.4 K/9. He gets an elite matchup against the Royals, who play in a pitcher friendly stadium and rank in the bottom five in runs scored this season. Sale is a -183 favorite in a game set at 8 runs, as well. He isn't going to come cheap, but he's an elite option in all leagues on this slate.

Brandon McCarthy - P, vs NYM (DK - $6,400, FD - $7,900)

McCarthy has certainly had a few ups and downs this season, but he is in a great position tonight. He gets a matchup against the Mets, who have been a boom or bust offense this season. McCarthy is a huge -192 favorite, but the game is set at 8.5 runs. There are some concerns about McCarthy's strikeout rate, but he has flashed more than enough upside to be considered in all leagues tonight.

 

FanDuel DFS Infielders

Brian McCann - C, at OAK (DK - $3,700, FD - $3,400)

McCann was given the game off last night, which means he will be ready to go tonight. He has been on fire for the Astros, as he's hitting well over .350 with great power over his last 10 games. He has been a better fantasy option on the road this season, and he gets a good matchup against Sonny Gray tonight. McCann is an tremendous fantasy option for his position, and he can be used in all leagues.

Matt Carpenter - 1B, at PHI (DK - $4,500, FD - $4,000)

Carpenter has been one of the hotter players in the MLB over his last 10 games, as he's hitting over .400 during that span. He has also displayed solid power with nearly double digit extra-base hits. He gets a good matchup against Jeremy Hellickson in a hitter friendly stadium, and Carpenter can be used in all leagues.

Scooter Gennett - 2B, at TB (DK - $3,700, FD - $2,400)

Gennett has quietly been on fire recently, as he's hitting over .300 with ridiculous power over his last 10 games. He has six home runs over that span, but four of them were in one game. With that being said, Gennett isn't known for his power, and he has also displayed speed over that span. He gets a good matchup against Alex Cobb tonight, and Gennett's price tag is entirely too low on FanDuel.

Dansby Swanson - SS, vs SF (DK - $3,500, FD - $2,700)

Swanson hasn't been a standout player recently, but he has been fairly consistent with decent upside over his last 10 games. He is a young player that has hit left-handed pitching well, and he gets a solid matchup against Matt Moore tonight. He's still fairly cheap, and Swanson can be used in all leagues.

Jose Ramirez - 3B, at BAL (DK - $4,900, FD - $4,300)

It's tough to avoid Ramirez tonight if you have the salary available. He's hitting over .400 with an elite blend of speed and power over his last 10 games. He gets a good matchup against Chris Tillman, and he'll be playing in a hitter friendly stadium. He isn't going to come cheap, but he is an elite option in all leagues.

 

FanDuel DFS Outfielders

David Peralta - OF, at COL (DK - $5,000, FD - $4,000)

Peralta has been playing nearly as well as anyone in the MLB over his last 10 games. Over that span, he's hitting over .400 with a great combination of power and speed. He has dominated right-handed pitching throughout his career, and he gets a good matchup against German Marquez tonight. He'll be playing at Coors Field, and Peralta can be used in all leagues.

Lonnie Chisenhall - OF, at BAL (DK - $4,000, FD - $2,700)

Chisenhall is a high upside option for the Indians. He's hitting nearly .300 with good power over his last 10 games, but he tends to string hits together in games for upside. He isn't the safest player on the slate, but he's hitting in a dominant offense and he gets a good matchup against Chris Tillman. Chisenhall has hit right-handed pitching well, and he's a great option in a Cleveland stack.
