Major League Baseball has 14 games under the lights tonight giving us plenty of options as we use these FanDuel daily picks to put together our fantasy baseball lineup.
As you shake off the ringing in your ears from last nightās fireworks (or whatever activities left you with some lingering effects), get ready for another full day of Major League Baseball action including 14 games in action tonight to give us a big pool of options for tonightās DFS fantasy baseball action. Ā There is one matinee game in Chicago not included in the āmainā competition, but the other 28 teams (without the Cubs and Reds) leave us with plenty of different directions to go of todayās FanDuel daily picks.
Most of tonightās action is in the early evening with seven games getting underway shortly after 7:00. Ā There are four more games in the midwest that start around 8:00 before threeĀ games from the West Coast close things out. Ā Most teams are past the halfway point in their season as they play out this final week before the All Star break which is next Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
As we continue moving quickly Ā to the All Star break, make sure to stay tuned to all our fantasy baseball coverage. Ā My FanDuel daily picks will continue to be posted mostĀ mornings right here at FanSided. My daily 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, Iāve 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 tonightās contest game.
Iāve found it very helpful to rank my picks every morning for whatever sport Iām writing about using stars after each selection to show the strength of the pick. Iāll continue that rating system as I move over to cover fantasy baseball. 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 points-per-dollar basis). Also on the final slide of the post, you can see how Iām putting together the my most confident picks into my lineups for todayās competition. I suggest you build your own customized team with the players you like the most, but youāre welcome to check out my lineups and use them as a place to get started.
In my FanDuel daily picks, all salary references and references to āfantasy pointsā refer to FanDuelĀ pricing and scoring. Ā If you are looking for similar coverage specifically for DraftKings, check the box above for related posts or find the latest on the fantasy baseballĀ hub.
