MLB DFS Pitching Primer: Friday, July 5

Welcome back to this Friday edition of the MLB DFS Pitching Primer! I’m Thunder Dan and I’ll be covering pitching for MLB DFS on all season long at FanSided Fantasy. I’m including both FanDuel and DraftKings pricing and will be covering my favorite pitching options for both sites.

If you haven’t noticed, our big news at FantasyCPR was that we are now FanSided Fantasy, you’re one stop site for everything fantasy sports related. I know everyone on our staff is really excited about the transition and the opportunity to grow our reach to more fantasy sports fans! Nothing on our end is going to change, we just happen to have a new site to host our articles and we have big plans to continue expanding our content to give our readers the most comprehensive analysis of season-long and DFS, all for free!

"The goal of the pitching primer is to help you narrow down your pitching options for both your GPPs and cash games. Analyzing pitchers and pitching matchups is something I really enjoy and I hope to give you a detailed analysis of why I think each pitcher makes for a compelling cash or GPP play."

The primer is back for today’s 13-game main slate on FanDuel and Draftkings. I hope you had a fun Fourth of July and maybe even turned a profit with your DFS lineups! My good friend Brandon Lauderback, also known as “LumberjackDFS” on Twitter, covered pitching for me yesterday and is going to be an awesome addition our MLB team for the rest of the year.

I don’t have time to break down every pitcher and every match-up, and you likely don’t have the time to read that much analysis anyway. I’m here to give you a place to start your research or at least trim down the list of pitchers to a more manageable number. I always include my rankings for both cash and GPP contests at the end of every article, too.

Since we have so many pitchers to choose from, I am going to go ahead and list all of our options on the next slide so we can have a big picture view of tonight’s pitching options.
