MLB DFS Pitching Primer: First Look

Here are tonight’s pitching match-ups. The home pitcher is listed second and the Vegas odds are listed in parenthesis when available. Remember that some pitchers have extremely large home/road splits.

Vegas lines and implied run totals can be tricky to navigate at times and they do change throughout the day, but they are certainly a great place to start your MLB DFS research. For cash games, I am often looking for large home favorites, while anything goes for GPPs.

Brad Keller vs. Austin Voth (-190)

Zach Davies (-120) vs. Steven Brault

Dylan Bundy vs. Aaron Sanchez (-120)

Eduardo Rodriguez vs. Gregory Soto

Vince Velasquez vs. Jacob DeGrom (-220)

Masahiro Tanaka (-120) vs. Brendan McKay

Dakota Hudson (-120) vs. Drew Pomeranz

Eric Lauer vs. Clayton Kershaw (-195)

Brett Anderson (-140) vs. Yusei Kikuchi

Antonio Senzatela vs. Zack Greinke (-190)

Felix Pena vs. Justin Verlander (-200)

Adrian Sampson vs. Martin Perez (-185)

Jordan Yamamoto vs. Julio Teheran (-195)

We have two of the best pitchers in baseball toeing the rubber tonight with Jacob DeGrom and Justin Verlander both opening as -200 or better home favorites. But which one should you pencil into your cash game builds? Let’s take a look at my “cash game ace” who I believe is the top play on the slate!
