DraftKings MLB featured picks and lineup for Wednesday May 9
SECOND BASEMEN
Wednesday’s second basemen pool features a lot in the bargain bin.
When Alen Hanson has scored DKFP, all but one time he has scored 10 or more. In hitter-friendly Philadelphia, where the Giants are projected to score 4.28 runs, he is worth a look.
Jonathan Schoop hasn’t showcased his power yet this season. Andrew Cashner has given up nine home runs in seven starts, so this could be a prime spot for Schoop to bust out.
TOP TIER
Ozzie Albies ($5,100), vs. Ryan Yarbrough
Albies has showcased his impressive power on the road. Ten of his 13 doubles and eight of his 10 home runs have come on the road, yielding a 1.069 OPS and .400 ISO.
Others: Jonathan Schoop ($3,500)
VALUE
Kike Hernandez ($3,000), vs. Patrick Corbin
Hernandez is an auto-roster against southpaws since that’s his specialty. His ISO is up to .242 and BABIP .301 against lefties over his career.
Others: Alen Hanson ($3,000), Austin Barnes ($2,900)
