FanDuel Picks For July 1

Fantasy CPR
Welcome back to the best place to get fantasy sports advice across multiple sports. Today I am going to give you my best picks and choices for your FanDuel lineups that I can. My advice is based purely on mathematical and statistical analysis and I try to avoid using player biases and so forth.
NOTE: these picks are based solely on statistics. Some players have never faced their opponents, or have very little experience against them. I am not saying that none of those are good picks. This is based on statistical analysis only. If you have a gut feeling, then by all means, follow that. This is not an exact science.
Here are my FanDuel picks for July 1:

Brett Anderson, Dodgers ($7,300): Anderson delivered a stellar 20 fantasy points in his last game. He is pitching really well and one of a few options I like in the 7:05 slate of games. My goal for the games will be to spend low money on pitchers and go big in the outfield and try to make up the difference. Anderson has a nice matchup with the Diamondbacks and I expect he should do well.
Nathan Eovaldi, Yankees ($6,900): Eovaldi is a decent prospect for the games today. This is not the easiest match-up but it is a decent one. Eovaldi has scored 12 and 14 fantasy points his last two games and should be a decent bet to have similar results against the Angels.
*Note*: Check back as ESPN.com has conflicting advice on the Yankee starting pitcher.

Bear Goggles On
Paul Goldschmidt, Diamondbacks ($5,400): Goldschmidt is a very pricey option, but if you recall I said I wanted to go cheap on the pitchers and spend a little more on the hitters. Goldy has been one of the hotter options in daily leagues and rightfully so. It also does not hurt that he is 7/11 against Anderson with two homers and 5 RBI. If you are going to spend money, he is a solid bet.
Logan Forsythe, Rays ($3,000): Forsythe has been one of the hotter infielders in baseball lately and he has been solid against Carlos Carrasco with a 3/6 career against him. He is a fairly cheap play and will still yield us some flexibility to spend big in the outfield. This game is all about making the mathematical odds work in your favor and I like the chances of getting a solid three to five points out of him.
Next: FanDuel Outfield Hitter Options

Outfield Hitter Options:
Curtis Granderson, Mets ($3,500): Granderson has been playing like his old self lately. He also has been great against Jon Lester so that is a good thing. He is batting .275 with two home runs and 4 RBI against him. I like those kind of odds and at this price tag you can’t go wrong.
Mike Trout, Angels ($5,200): Trout is always a safe bet in any type of fantasy league. He is easily one of my favorite players to own in any type of fantasy baseball league. We saved a lot of money leading us up to the outfielders and I feel like Trout is money well spent. He is playing well and is always a safe bet to hot one out of the park.
As always we thank you for stopping by and wish you FanDuelers the best of luck!
