Get set for today’s MLB DFS Pitching slate with our top FanDuel and Draftkings arms to build around on the fantasy baseball schedule.

Hello everyone, for today I will be focusing on the two larger slates, the Early only, and Main slate. I will be covering the top MLB DFS Pitching plays here at FanSided Fantasy, for each slate today. I will be discussing, in detail, four pitchers from the Early slate, and four pitchers from the Main slate.

I’ll also mention before we get started, you will see a variety of different statistics in this article, such as xFIP (Expected Fielding Independent Pitching), ISO (Isolated Power), K (Strikeout) rate, GB (Ground-ball) rate, FB (Fly-Ball) rate, and HC (Hard Contact). Along with various other statistics that will focus on a players specific pitch-type. This allows us to isolate specific pitchers, who are not only in good matchups, but are also in good recent form.

Everything you see in this article can be found on various websites, such as Brooks Baseball or RotoGrinders Plate IQ. These are two of my favorite websites/tools, to use for research, and the best thing about them is they are completely free. Alright lets dive in!
