FanDuel MLB: Summary and Example Lineup for the Main Slate on July 26th 2019

Greinke is my favorite arm on the mound if you’re able to pay up for pitcher, but Pineda seems like the best overall play, when you consider value. But, I’m also considering a riskier Gio Gonzalez play, especially if you’re trying to buck the trends, target low ownership, or want a solid GPP lineup.

From there, I’m looking at stacking the Twins and Tigers bats on Friday night. You could go many other routes, but the Twins offense is red-hot right now, and the Tigers have a good pitching match-up with affordable FanDuel MLB salaries.

If you snag Gio in your pitcher spot and get some modest value out of the Twins and/or Tigers lineup, then you have plenty of cash to play a consistently good Altuve or re-surging LeMahieu. Either way, this slate is a heck of a lot more interesting than Thursday’s ways, so good luck and have some fun!

With that summary in mind, here’s a look at a sample lineup for the Main FanDuel MLB slate on Friday, July 26th:

Main Slate

P               Gio Gonzalez ($6,000)

C/1B        Brandon Dixon ($2,900)

2B             Jose Altuve ($4,400)

3B             Luis Arraez ($2,900)

SS             Jorge Polanco ($3,500)

OF             Max Kepler ($3,600)

OF             Eddie Rosario ($4,100)

OF             Nicholas Castellanos ($3,300)

UTIL         DJ LeMahieu ($4,200)
