FanDuel MLB DFS Picks – October 4th

Last nights FanDuel MLB DFS Picks reeled in a few gains as we picked the correct starting pitcher that gave us.
Buehler hurled six innings of shutout baseball to cooperate with eight strikeouts and notching the NLDS series triumph over the Washington Nationals at Game 1. Of course, Buehler notched a quality start because he mowed throughout the Nats offense.
Our four-man Braves pile was busy, however we were rescued by a Freddie Freeman residence run from a prominent flop. John Donaldson listed an RBI, scored a run and was struck by a pitch while Nick Markakis doubled and scored a run. However, Matt Joyce was unable to give exactly the exact value we desired to us and was held into a zero.
Our three-man Dodgers pile was strong, yet unspectacular. Justin Turner led the way with a run scored a single and a stolen base while Chris Taylor singled and walked twice. Corey Seager didnt provide us much .
Finally, our second baseman, Kolten Wong, was great as he walked in 2 runs, doubled, walked and singled. Wong was also robbed of a single in his first at-bat onto a diving catch by center fielder Ronald Acuna Jr.. .
It was a bounce back evening after a flop about Wednesday night, and now I will look to make it nights on this four-game slate that is main!
P — Stephen Strasburg (WAS) — $10,100 vs. LAD
Rather than last night when I went with a money lineup, tonights lineup will be geared more towards GPPs since I will be using Stephen Strasburg since he takes on the strong Los Angeles Dodgers in tonights Game 2 of the NLDS in Dodgers Stadium. Even though Strasburg threw 34 pitches of aid Tuesdays Wild Card win, director Dave Martinez chalked it up as equivalent to what hed do in between begins, therefore Strasburg should be able to deal with a complete workload within this one and Im not worried about some innings or pitch limitations, especially with the teams 29th-ranked bullpen behind him and the two Max Scherzer and Patrick Corbin unavailable to piggyback from him. Strasburg has already been dominant this season as he has pitched to a 3.32 ERA, 3.25 FIP and a 3.17 zFIP to go alongside a stout 10.80 K/9 rate. Hes carried that victory to the road and he has submitted a 3.39 ERA, 3.23 FIP and a 3.45 xFIP outside Nationals Park to move along with a fine 10.18 K/9. What I like here is that current Dodgers bats are hitting just .189 off of Strasburg using a joint .706 OPS, so hes not afraid to go up from the temptations of the Dodgers. Together with the Nats underdogs along with the Dodgers one of the greatest offenses in baseball, I enjoy Strasburg this four-game slate as a GPP play.
C/1B — Paul Goldschmidt (STL) — $3,800 vs. ATL
The Cardinals took Game 1 from the Braves in Atlanta and I believe theyve got an exceptional shot of taking Game 2 as well as they take on right-hander Mike Foltynewicz who suffered a rocky regular season that included a trip to the minors. Foltynewicz finished the regular season with a 4.54 ERA, 4.97 FIP along with a 4.73 xFIP to go along with a but 1.77 HR/9. Now, he was exceptional at September with a 1.50 ERA around 30 innings of work, so hes feeling it entering this one, however, I also think the Cardinals offense has been riding tons of confidence into this 1 tonight. Goldschmidt should surely be driving plenty of confidence into this contest as he started a homer in the nights upset win off of Dallas Keuchel because his torrid second half persists. Goldschmidt struggled from the first half with his new group, however he posted that a big-time .271 ISO, .886 OPS, .365 wOBA and 128 wRC+ since the All-Star break — manufacturing that were utilised to seeing from the hulking first baseman. That marks back-to-back games with a home run and four home runs over his final six games. His bat was greatest against lefties, but I am willing to cover against a righty as he is red-hot entering this one to spare.
2B — Kolten Wong (STL) — $2,600 vs. ATL
Though he can hit lefties well, Wong was moved down the lineup last night to the seven pit, however he would very well go up to the two-hole tonight against the right-handed starter Foltynewicz — even a pitcher he has enjoyed lots of success against in his profession. At the regular season, Wong posted a .797 OPS, .339 wOBA along with 111 WRC. Additional his very best work — by far — was done on the street where he posted a .212 ISO, .922 OPS, .384 wOBA and 137 wRC+ compared to just an 80 wRC+ at home. He hit righties for a .209 ISO, .925 OPS, .385 wOBA along with 141 wRC+ around the road. We do get some soda with Wong since he homered 11 times in the regular season, but plenty of stolen base upside as he swiped 24 bases on the year, 20 of which came against a right-wing pitcher. Last night marked a hit for Wong on three games with a game in just two of these three competitions. Wong has also been running a lot on the bases of late as he has swiped four bases over his past eight games, but hes also attempted six steals in that moment. Eventually, hes owned Foltynewicz in their background against one another as he has gone for 11 (.455) with three doubles, a homer and a stolen base . Im absolutely loving the worth and cross-category upside down tonight if he can hit out of the two-hole.
3B — Matt Carpenter (STL) — $2,900 vs. ATL
All told, it was a disappointing season for Carpenter, particularly compared to past seasons, since he homered only 15 times in 129 games and submitted a .166 ISO that fell well below the .266 mark he published while homering 36 times just last year. Carpenter did not receive the beginning last night against the lefty, but he must co against the righty. His best work came from righties, using an increased .177 ISO, but I am liking Carpenter for yet another reason: recency. As mentioned, his year was largely a battle, but Carpenter enters these playoffs coming off the very best month of his season as he published a .233 ISO, .866 OPS, .364 wOBA along with 127 wRC+ in the month of September. Carpenter homered twice over the last three regular season matches, and weve seen this guy go on several severe stretches of residence run generation in the past. I am hoping the final games of the regular season began a stretch. Carpenter has also enjoyed some success out of a power perspective against Foltynewicz as he has gone 3 for 12 (.250) with a homer and a double against the right-hander. I think we could find some value that is wonderful from Carpenter at this price tonight.
SS — Paul DeJong (STL) — $3,100 vs. ATL
We are completing a four-man Cardinals stack in a rush as DeJong is a real fine option at shortstop as somebody who has also hit Foltynewicz for electricity in the past. It was a wonderful regular year from DeJong from a power standpoint as he struck on a career-high 30 home runs and submitted a .211 ISO on the season also. On top of the 30 home runs, we also have some stolen foundation upside as DeJong swiped nine bases on the season. Weve seen a skill from the righty-swinging DeJong to strike right-handed pitching very well in the past and that he did so again this season with some noteworthy reverse-splits. DeJong submitted a .228 ISO, .783 OPS, .329 wOBA along with a 104 wRC+ against right-wing pitching this year. Additionally, he posted a huge .292 ISO, .875 OPS, .359 wOBA and a 125 wRC+ on the road against righties. In laymans terms, DeJong hit 27 of his 30 home runs contrary to a right-handed pitcher this year and six of his nine steals also came against a righty. Finally, DeJong has gone 3 for 10 (.300) using a double and a homer in his profession against Foltynewicz. Hes likely to hit last in this pile, thus a large night from DeJong can signify a big night for this four-man Cardinals heap.
OF — Nelson Cruz (MIN) — $4,300 vs. NYY
The Twins and Yankees kick their ALDS show tonight from Yankee Stadium and New York as the two greatest home run-hitting clubs in the regular season. The Twins edged the Yankees at the home run department, thanks in part to the ageless Nelson Cruz as he clubbed a whopping 41 home runs in just 120 games because of injury. Yes, that is great for an enormous .328 ISO on this season. Cruz and the Twins will shoot on left-handed James Paxton in this , a pitcher that endured an abysmal first season with the Yankees, but still ended with a 3.82 ERA, 3.86 FIP and 4.03 xFIP along with a 1.37 HR/9 speed. Having said that, I am going to roster a trio of players who hit lefties well this season, which certainly begins with Cruz who published some of, if not the greatest numbers I have seen from a left-handed pitcher. Ready for this? Cruz submitted an unworldly .461 ISO, 1.207 OPS, .464 wOBA along with also a 195 wRC+ against left-handed pitching this year. The figures were actually better at home in exactly the pitcher-friendly Safeco Field, however let us not fret over his .319 ISO, 1.096 OPS, .436 wOBA along with 176 wRC+. He is white-hot with an eight-game hitting streak entering this one using four home runs, three doubles and 11 RBI at the time. I suggest paying up for the thunderous Cruz in this matchup.
OF — Marwin Gonzalez (MIN) — $2,900 vs. NYY
Next man up in our three-man Twins heap is Gonzalez who did not hit for a ton of home run power this season, but he certainly enjoyed himself contrary to left handed pitching. Gonzalez hit only 15 homers and posted a .151 ISO within an injury-shortened 114-game season, but everything was better against left-handed pitching. Gonzalez hit .300 using a .167 ISO, .789 OPS, .332 wOBA and also a 106 wRC+ from lefties this season compared to some .144 ISO, .715 OPS, .306 wOBA and 88 WRC+ vs righties. His bat was a tiny bit better over the road against lefties using a .796 OPS, .338 wOBA along with 110 wRC+ in most situations such as the one he sees himself in tonight. Id keep a watch out for the Yankees confirmed lineup for this one as Gonzalez overlooked the final week of the regular season with an oblique injury, however, hes reportedly all set for the Game 1 tonight. Before the accident, Gonzalez set a poor September behind him by going 2 for 5 with a run and three RBI. He hit in seven of his last nine matches so his bat clearly started to turn out. I really dont find him netting tonight to a huge amount of ownership, so that he can offer us an increase with a few production in this one.
OF — Matt Joyce (ATL) — $2,300 vs. STL
After picking Strasburg as my pitcher and then filling into both my Cardinals along with Twins piles, Id $2,500 left for an outfielder, and Im likely to go back into Matt Joyce despite a difficult matchup from Jack Flaherty who had been one of, if not the very best pitcher in baseball in the seasons second half. In actuality, I think that will frighten many off of the Braves generally, even though I really do observe Joyce getting some possession with some pricey pitchers on the background. Still, his job against right-handed pitching this year was once again strong as he posted a .298 typical, .871 OPS, .377 wOBA along with 131 wRC+ against righties over the year followed by a .176 ISO, .942 OPS, .403 wOBA and a 149 wRC+ against righties in SunTrust Park where this one happens tonight. Joyce had a night in the nights NLDS opener, something which could have people from him. Personally, with his enormous 16.4% walk rate at home from righties this year, I believe Joyce gets the patience that could even net him a few walks even if his extra-base power doesnt appear. No matter he will not need to do a lot to strike appreciate tonightbut well need him to put last night and find a way to get on base at least once this day.
UTIL — Jonathan Schoop (MIN) — $2,800 vs. NYY
Completing this lineup along with also our Twins pile is Schoop while his ability against lefties surged on the street, was demolished pitching at the regular season. For the period as a whole, Schoop clobbered lefties to the tune of a .286 ISO, .917 OPS, .376 wOBA along with also a 136 wRC+. Compared that to his 87 wRC+ from righties and we all understand where the majority of his production came out of this year. But, all the way jumped to .310 around the street against lefties to go together with a .907 OPS, .375 wOBA along with 135 wRC+ from them. In September, Schoop fought after a white-hot August, however he notched a two-hit game with a double and a homer in that time. He notched a hit entering this particular one. I dont like that Schoop has gone for seven in his profession against Paxton, however his manner is the type that can do lots of damage with a single swing and flip those fortunes around — especially given his job against lefties here in 2019. The cost is right within this matchup from a lefty, so I will take Schoop to anchor this Twins tonight.
