Early DraftKings MLB picks August 14: I dream of Gio

We have another interesting Wednesday split with the bulk of the action being in the afternoon. The early DraftKings MLB slate has nine games. The remaining six games are in the main DraftKings MLB tournament. The early has much better pitching and Coors on it. This is going to be interesting….

More from FanSided

Rain: New York(slight), Chicago(very slight), Milwaukee(very slight), Washington(moderate)

Wind: 12 mph in from left in Milwaukee

Hot/Humid: New York(humid), Chicago(humid), Milwaukee(humid), Denver(hot), San Diego(humid), San Francisco(humid), Washington(both)

The main rain concern is in Washington, but about the only threat is pop up thunderstorms, as it was last night. All games should play. Just keep an eye on Washington to see if pitchers are safe.

I didn’t have any shares of Quintana, but hit with a couple of Flaherty-May builds. My hybrid Arizona/Yankees stack with Flaherty and Fried topped 150.

These tips are based mostly on past performance. This is a nice tool for building a lineup, but should not be the only pieces of information you use. We have plenty of writers on here who give you relevant information no matter which site you play on, and we all attack the slate from different angles.

Thunder Dan uses advanced metrics. Lumberjack uses a lot of pitch data. Tulloch uses a lot of leverage plays. Joe Metz and Juan Bond give you all the value plays. Between all of us, you can build a beast of a lineup on any site!
