When you are a fantasy baseball writer, you have to be ready to pinch-hit on short notice and have your "A game" ready to go! Unfortunately, my bro Mark Kieffler couldn't make it today but luckily for you, I do my own betting model, K projections, and I'm always dug into every slate even on days when I'm not scheduled to write an article!
We have a really solid 10-game slate on tap for tonight! I won't be covering any of the day slates here, but I will offer my thoughts on a few high-end pitching options as well as my favorite bats and stacks as well!
As always, this article will provide my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel. Wednesday's main slate locks at 7:05 EST on 6/10/2022. You can also read more DFS advice and lineup picks for other sports here. It's also essential to monitor injury news and today's MLB starting lineups. Now that we got all of that out of the way, it's onto the picks!

DraftKings, FanDuel Pitchers - MLB DFS Lineup Picks
Nathan Eovaldi @ LAA ($8,800 DK, $9,200 FD)
There's no way you can't put Eovaldi's name in the mix tonight even with a bunch of other good arms on the slate. Since his one "blow-up" start against Houston, he's responded in a big way but striking out 11 Mariners, six Orioles, and eight Athletics in his last three starts. He gets to face the Angels tonight, who have been struggling at the plate during their recent slide and aren't likely to have their best hitter Mike Trout in the lineup as he left last night's game early.
Tony Gonsolin @ CHW ($9,200 DK, $9,400 FD)
I haven't heard his name discussed much this morning or really in fantasy baseball circles lately, but let's just take a second to talk about how good Gonsolin has been for the Dodgers this year. Since getting stretched out, he's gone five or more innings in every start and has allowed two runs or fewer every time he's toed the rubber.
Over his last four starts, he's compiled 26 strikeouts while walking only four batters with wins against some quality opponents (PHI + NYM) in there, too. Gonsolin doesn't have a big strikeout projection here, but he does have a favorable match-up against a White Sox team that ranks near the bottom of the league in multiple offensive categories against RHP.
Also consider: Nestor Cortes, Aaron Nola, Jared Koenig (DK only punt play)

DraftKings, FanDuel Infielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks
Trevor Story - 2B/SS, BOS vs. Reid Detmers ($5,300 DK, $4,200 FD)
I was all set to use Story against the lefty Detmers yesterday and then he got pushed to today. And then Story went out and had two hits, including a double against another lefty in Suarez. He's been crushing LHP this season and when I wrote him up yesterday I noticed he matched up particularly well against Detmers pitch-mix. I won't hesitate to go back to some Boston righties tonight.
Brendan Donovan - 1B/OF (DK), 2B/SS (FD), STL vs. Corey Kluber ($3,300 DK, $2,600 FD)
Donovan is one of a few cheap Cardinals that I am considering today against Corey Kluber. While the Tampa veteran has been relatively solid this year, he's certainly not unhittable by any means. Donovan and fellow rookie Nolan Gorman (only 3.1k on DK) have been solid additions to this Cards lineup and really valuable players due to their versatility and ability to get on base.
Bryson Stott - 2B/SS, PHI vs. Adrian Houser ($2,400 DK, $2,300 FD)
I usually try to include some value plays and avoid writing up all the most expensive hitters. I was on Stott yesterday and left me hanging, going 0-4 on the evening. But I'm not giving up on this youngster yet. He was swinging a hot bat for five straight games prior to that and faces another hittable Brewer pitcher here in Houser, who throws mainly sinkers and sliders with the occasional curve. It never hurts to punt a middle infield spot, especially in cash games.
DraftKings, FanDuel Outfielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks
Joc Pederson - OF, SFG vs. Antonio Senzetela ($5,600 DK, $3,500 FD)
Pederson and the Giants have a solid history against Senzetela - the ultimate contact pitcher (8.5% K rate this season). He relies almost exclusively on ground balls but Joc is one of the Giants who hits ground balls less often than he hits line drives or fly balls. I like "Joc Jams" to get under a Senzy fastball or slider today and drive one into the bay!
Connor Joe - OF, COL vs. Alex Wood ($4,400 DK, $3,100 FD)
Joe has been excellent this season while hitting in the leadoff spot against lefties for Colorado. He led off last night's game with a solo home run off Carlos Rodon and managed a hit, walk, and a stolen base as well. With a .400 wOBA against LHP this season, he's a great play here against Wood is much less effective against RHH than lefties.
Christopher Morel - OF, CHC vs. Jordan Lyles ($4,600 DK, $3,500 FD)
I promise I am not chasing here, but another guy who had a leadoff home run last night was Cubs rookie Morel. He also tripled in that game and finished with 31.2 FD points. He's been rock solid since becoming the leadoff hitter for the Cubs and is riding a six-game hitting streak. With six steals already, we know he's going to be active on the basepaths when he has the chance, too.
DraftKings, FanDuel MLB DFS Stacks
Here are my top stacks for tonight (in the order in which I like them)
San Francisco Giants - They started out great then petered out last night, but I have to go back to them here against a pitcher like Senzatela who doesn't miss many bats. And, of course, we love targeting this Rockies pen, too. Vegas loves them here with a 5.2 implied run total.
Boston Red Sox - The prices on Boston are making it tough to fit entire four or five-man stacks, but I love the idea of pairing Story with J.D. Martinez and maybe one more cheap bat like Bobby Dalbec here.
Chicago Cubs - As much as Jordan Lyles hasn't been terrible this year, he's still a guy I think we can pick on here with the right Cubs bats. He allows a lot of fly balls and hard contact to lefties and righties alike.
I hope I gave you a head start on your research today and I wish you the best of luck! If you ever have questions about DFS or fantasy baseball, my DMs are always open and I appreciate you taking the time to read my picks today.
