DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy baseball lineup-June 7
This Tuesday is a monster night of DFS fantasy baseball with all 30 teams in action, and you can start your lineup with my DraftKings daily picks.
Major League Baseball is back to a full slate of 15 games tonight after a third of the league started the week with an off day. There are three waves of games tonight, and plenty of different ways to get in on the daily fantasy action over on DraftKings. To see who I think you should consider for your lineup card tonight, check out my DraftKings daily picks on the following slides.

For the most part, things look pretty sunny for tonight across the country with no rainfall currently forecasted for any of the 15 games tonight. The first wave of action starts around 7:00 PM ET when six games get started. One of those six is the second game of the Mets-Pirates double-header which could result in some interesting lineups in that contest. Four more first pitches are schedule in the 8:00 wave with five more from the West Coast starting at 9:40 or 10:00. Make sure to keep an eye on the weather as gamete approaches, but it looks like it will be another full night of hardball to enjoy.
As we continue into the dog days of summer with my full fantasy baseball coverage, my DraftKings daily picks will be posted each morning here at FanSided. My picks are designed to provide you the information you need to build your own lineup that can bring home a win for your team. In order to help you find the position and price-point that you need, there are a variety of options on each slide with high-salary options, mid-range options, and high-value options at each position. For starting pitchers and outfielders, I’ve separated my picks into high-salary and high-value options on separate slides while the other positions each get one slide per position with multiple pricing options. I base each of my picks on the current form of each player and the matchups each player will face in tonight’s contest game.
In my daily basketball picks, it was very helpful to rank my picks every morning using stars after each selection to show the strength of the pick. For a full explanation of the rating system, check out the last slide of this post, but in short, more stars means more confidence (on a point-per-dollar basis). Also on the final slide of the post, you can see how I’m putting together the my most confident picks into my lineups for today’s competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but you’re welcome to check out my lineups and use them as a place to get started.
In my DraftKings daily picks, all salary references and references to “fantasy points” refer to DraftKings pricing and scoring. If you are looking for similar coverage specifically for FanDuel, check the box above for related posts or find the latest on the fantasy baseball hub.
