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 FanDuel 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 September 16:

Infield Hitter Options:
Live Feed
Bear Goggles On
Jean Segura, Brewers ($2,700): Segura is having a bit of a down season this year, but he is still going to be good for daily leagues. He is playing well as of late and should make for a good option on the 16th. He has four stolen bases in his last seven games and has a good career against Jaime Garcia. He ha s gone 5/15 against and should be a safe bet for a few hits.
Paul Goldschmidt, Diamondbacks ($4,200): It is always a good idea to use a talent like Goldy. He is not on a major tear right now so his price is pretty reasonable. He also comes to us for the 16th with a favorable match-up. He is 7/20 against Andrew Cashner and should be a good option for the 16th.
Next: FanDuel Outfield Hitter Options

Outfield Hitter Options:
Christian Yelich, Marlins ($3,100): Yelich is on a pretty decent hot streak right now and looks to continue that. He has a favorable match-up against Bartolo Colon having gone 7/22 against him with three RBI and a stolen base. Get him active.
Michael Brantley, Indians ($4,300): Brantley is a great player and a great talent. He also has a favorable match-up and should be a great option for the 16th. He is hitting the ball well lately and faces off with a familiar face in Danny Duffy. Over his career he has gone 6/17 against Duffy with two RBI.
Next: FanDuel Bonus Hitter Options

Bonus Hitter Options:
Catcher:
Yan Gomes, Indians ($2,300): Gomes is having a decent season and has also hit the ball safely in his last three games. He also sports a nice match-up with Danny Duffy with a 5/13 mark, a home run and two RBI.
Jose Altuve, Astros ($3,600): Altuve is playing well lately and is also on a mini six game hitting streak. He also has a decent match-up with Martin Perez with a 5/12 and an RBI.
