Todays Daily Fantasy Baseball Rankings Best starting pitcher
After one of the lightest MLB DFS slates of the year yesterday, Matt Kemp Jersey Tuesday night brings a 15-game schedule. As is often the case on nights like this, our daily fantasy baseball SP rankings are loaded with potential studs and value sleepers (as well as a few matchup-based fades). Finding your starting pitcher on FanDuelwon't be difficult, but figuring out which pair to go with on DraftKings will take a little more work.
Perhaps the biggest question tonight is whether to trustNoah Syndergaard (vs. Giants), who's disappointed for much of the year regardle s of how favorable the matchup looks on paper. He has another good one tonight and his price continues to be affordable, but it might be foolish to continue thinking he's going to get his act together. You can useMasahiro Tanaka (@ Blue Joe Morgan Jersey Jays)for roughly the same price, and he has just as good of a matchup and been much better lately.
Max Fried (@ Pirates)checks in at a nice price, especially on DraftKings, for his favorable matchup against Pittsburgh, and you can expect to seeChase Anderson (vs. Marlins)in a ton of lineups given his price and matchup.Jerad Eickhoff (@ Padres),Eduardo Rodriguez (@ Royals), andDevin Smeltzer (@ Indians)also have good matchups, though Smeltzer is a big risk despite a solid major league debut last week.Reynaldo Lopez (@ Nationals)is a major value sleeper given his matchup, but his ceiling is fairly low -- and his floor is extremely low.
As far Alex Wood Jersey as fades,Shane Bieber (vs. Twins)is in a tough spot, but he has the stuff to pay off in tournaments. The same goes for Hyun-Jin Ryu (@ Diamondbacks).Frankie Montas (@ Angels)is way overpriced on DraftKingsgiven his matchup, andMadison Bumgarner (@ Mets)is only marginally better.
There's some potential for rain for the Red Sox-Royals and Reds-Cardinals, so check thecloser to lineup lock for the latest weather reports.

League average for position players is 100, and every point above 100 is a percentage Jesse Winker Jersey point above league average. For example, a 125 wRC+ means a player created 25% more runs than a league average hitter would have in the same number of plate appearances. Similarly, every point below 100 is a percentage point below league average, so a 80 wRC+ means a player created 20% fewer runs than league average." For more on the stat, .
