DraftKings MLB picks August 30: MadBum’s Lamet

We have 14 games for our DraftKings MLB tournaments tonight. The Wrigley matinee will be available in DraftKings MLB showdown mode only. The pitching is strong, and so is the middle tier. That’s a nice change after the terrible middle tier last night.

They are going to have problems with that game in St. Louis. I wouldn’t use pitchers in that game. Bats may be safe but keep an eye on the weather to make sure. Nothing is a given there.

Pitching was mostly a disaster last night. Only Paddack hit value as a top arm. All of the value with Dereck Rodriguez and King Felix didn’t turn out to be much of a value. At least I cashed in the early slate….

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.
