So, about those FanDuel DFS lineup picks from yesterday... we started off horrible by going cheap at pitcher with R.A. Dickey, but bounced back in the NLCS matchup as Daniel Murphy, Kyle Schwarber, and Jorge Soler all went yard.

We have two elimination games on the slate for Wednesday. Will the World Series be set come tomorrow? I hope not, I want as much baseball as possible!

Let's get to the FanDuel DFS lineup picks for today's games.

Offenses to Target for FanDuel Stacking

Kansas City Royals versus Marco Estrada

The Royals must have used my Toronto recommendation as bulletin board material because they came out and pummeled R.A. Dickey. The knuckleball wasn't knuckling, and the Royals took advantage. They look to close out the series today and I think they will, led by Alcides Escobar, Eric Hosmer, Salvador Perez, and Lorenzo Cain.

Honorable Mention: Mets versus Jason Hammel

 

DFS Starting Pitcher to Consider for FanDuel

Edinson Volquez (SP, KC) - $8,300

Volquez gets the call in this potential-series clincher. He shut out the Blue Jays over six innings in Game 1 while striking out five. The other bonus with Volquez is he should have a longer leash as the bullpen was taxed for 5.1 innings yesterday.

 

DFS Infielders to Consider for FanDuel

Travis D'Arnaud (C, NYM) - $3,400

Ownership should be low on D'Arnaud as players look to go cheap at catcher which gives us an edge. He's hitting .273 in the NLCS and provides the pop we want in a FanDuel lineup.

Eric Hosmer (1B, KC) - $3,100

Hosmer continues to put together a quietly impressive postseason with a .313 average in the ALCS. He's 4-for-5 lifetime versus Marco Estrada.

Daniel Murphy (2B, NYM) - $4,500

I'm a fool to keep using Daniel Murphy but you can't make me fade him. He's now had a postseason-record five straight games with a homer. Oh and he's batting .500 in 10 AB versus Hammel. If you want to make a fade play, my vote is Ben Zobrist.

David Wright (3B, NYM) - $2,900

Wright's bat came alive versus Jake Arrieta and it continued to Wrigley as he went 3-for-4 in Game 3 with two runs. Look for the Captain to continue his hitting ways versus Hammel.

Alcides Escobar (SS, KC) - $2,300

Escobar continues to be a table-setter for the Royals, finishing Game 4 with a 2-for-3 line and three RBI. He now has a .600 average in the ALCS. The ownership will be high, but at least he's cheap.

 

DFS Outfielders to Consider for FanDuel

Yoenis Cespedes (OF, NYM) - $4,000

Cespedes has relinquished the alpha dog status to Daniel Murphy but he's still chipping in. He's hitting .308 in the NLCS and is due for a long ball.

Lorenzo Cain (OF, KC) - $3,700

The Royals are going to win the AL Pennant if Cain keeps pacing this offense. He's hitting .357 so far  and is 2-for-6 versus Estrada.

Dexter Fowler (OF, CHC) - $2,800

Perhaps the last time I can shout out my fellow Milton High School alum, Fowler has a .326/.399/.467 clip versus lefties in 2015 and will need to be a huge component should the Cubs win Game 4.
