FanDuel Lineup and Picks for Sunday, May 6
Sample Lineup with an Ace
P – Max Scherzer
C/1B – Wilmer Flores
2B – Jonathan Villar
3B – Matt Duffy
SS – Amed Rosario
OF – Mallex Smith, Starling Marte, Domingo Santana
Utility – Yangervis Solarte
It’s going to be next to impossible to not play Scherzer in cash, He should be very highly owned but if he scores 70 points and you don’t have him, that could be a huge problem. It’s truly not as bad to find some value as I thought it might be. Flores will be the chalkiest play of the day due to his price tag. I’m hoping Villar flys under the radar a bit because I think he’s due for a big game tomorrow and it’s especially attractive given his price. Marte and Solarte would be the two biggest spends in this lineup and I feel comfortable with their ability to produce in their spots.
Sample Lineup without an Ace
P – Mike Soroka
C/1B – Wilmer Flores
2B – Jonathan Villar
3B – Travis Shaw
SS – Adeiny Hechavvaria
OF – Yoenis Cespedes, Starling Marte, Michael Brantley
Utility – Ozzie Albies
There’s a couple of repeat plays in each lineup because I’m really excited about the spots they find themselves in today. Soroka opens up a ton of salary, which gets us up to Shaw at 3B, Cespedes and Brantley in the outfield and then Albies as our biggest spend of the day. He was one of the only Braves that didn’t disappoint yesterday and he’s going to have a big game again today.
Stacks To Consider – Rays(vs Toronto), Brewers lefties(vs Pittsburgh) and Twins(at White Sox)
