DraftKings, FanDuel Pitchers - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Tanner Bibee - RHP, CLE at Tigers ($8.7K DraftKings; $8.9K FanDuel)

Tanner Bibee backed up a promising rookie campaign with a dominant sophomore season in the big leagues. In 31 starts, the Guardians righty produced a 3.48 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and 187 strikeouts over 173 2/3 innings.

Cleveland is on the brink of elimination, so there's always the possibility that Bibee gets yanked early if things aren't going well. However, dating back to the regular season, the 25-year-old has reached at least six strikeouts in seven of his last nine starts.

Gerrit Cole - RHP, NYY at Royals ($8.3K DK; $9.4K FD)

While Gerrit Cole is cheaper than Tanner Bibee on DraftKings, the Yankees pitcher is $500 more expensive on FanDuel. If you can't find the value hitters you like on FD, you should roll with the Guardians arm against the Tigers over the pinstripes pitcher against the Royals.

In theory, New York is in a different situation than Cleveland and can afford to lose Game 4. This raises Cole's floor a little, as he will likely get to pitch more innings than Bibee. The defending AL Cy Young winner didn't do so hot in Game 1 against Kansas City, where he allowed three earned runs, seven hits, and two walks with four strikeouts over five innings.

DraftKings, FanDuel Infielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Josh Naylor - 1B, CLE at TBD ($4.1K DK; $3.5K FD)

In 152 regular-season games, Josh Naylor mashed 27 doubles and 31 home runs with 108 RBI. He's underperforming in the ALDS, but is a great bounceback candidate versus Detroit. Don't expect the Guardian to remain down for a fourth straight game.

Michael Massey - 2B, KC vs. Gerrit Cole ($3.8K DK; $2.8K FD)

Rostering a leadoff man below $4.0K on DraftKings on a two-game slate feels like stealing. Regardless, DFS managers should do it anyway. Dating back to the regular season, Michael Massey has a six-game hitting streak with a double, triple, and home run, averaging 11.4 FD PPG.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. - 2B/3B/OF, NYY at Michael Wacha ($4.8K DK; $3.6K FD)

In this ALDS, Jazz Chisholm Jr. has been talking that talk but also walking the walk. In three postseason games in pinstripes, the versatile bat has two runs, a stolen base, and a home run. His positional flexibility and multiple avenues to points make him an intriguing option in tournaments.

DraftKings, FanDuel Outfielders - MLB DFS Lineup Picks

Aaron Judge - OF, NYY at Michael Wacha ($6.5K DK; $4.7K FD)

The vibes are at a season-low for Aaron Judge, but the potential AL MVP can turn that all around with a big game to send New York back to the ALCS. Judge will still be incredibly popular in every competition, but alittleless than usual. Trust the process and continue to roster the man who won plenty of slates by himself during the regular season.

Kerry Carpenter - OF, DET vs. Tanner Bibee ($4.4K DK; $3.3K FD)

One does not simply sleep on Kerry Carpenter. The Tigers outfielder has already shown postseason DFS managers what he can do with one swing of the bat. Getting that slate-destroying power in your lineup provides infinite upside in a massive game for Detroit.

Alex Verdugo - OF, NYY at Michael Wacha ($3.0K DK; $2.7K FD)

He may be cemented at the bottom of the Yankees lineup, but Alex Verdugo has been sneaky good for DFS purposes. The former Red Sox player is incredibly cheap on both sites and owns a .300 average with two runs and an RBI through three games of this ALDS.
