Welcome back. Today’s slate has nine games. The teams with the highest implied runs scored totals tonight are the Dodgers, Mets, Padres, A’s, and White Sox so keep them in mind when picking players. We will keep you abreast of the juiciest matchups and make sure you know who to keep your eye on.
Today’s free pick comes from the Braves with Jeff McNeil ($3,500 on DK, $2,800 on FD). McNeil now has multi-hit games in three of his last five games, and three straight games with a home run. At his price, he is worth using again today to see if his hot streak continues.
Behind the paywall expect to find a high value plays that are notably well priced on DraftKings and FanDuel. We have two pitchers, infielders and outfielders that we love for today’s main slate of games. And we’ve got more.
Pitching DFS Picks for September 9th, 2020
We are going to look to Cubs for pitching. Yu Darvish ($11,500 on DK, $11,500 on FD) has been great all year and tonight he will face a Reds lineup that is striking out 28 percent of hte time. Darvish himself has struck out ten or more batters in three of his last five starts and hasn’t given up more than one run in a start since July. Our second pitching choice today is Clayton Kershaw($10,500 on DK, $11,000 on FD) of the Dodgers. Much like Darvish, Kershaw isn’t going to be cheap, but with him facing the Diamondbacks today there is still room for upside. In his last start against Arizona he gave up just one hit over six innings and struck out eight. Arizona has just a 0.215 batting average against left-handed pitching with a 0.315 SLG. This is a great matchup for Kershaw.
Infield DFS Picks for September 9th, 2020
Austin Nola ($4,900 on DK, $3,000 on FD). Nola has hits in four of his six games as a Padre and now has home runs in two of his last three games. He isn’t as cheap as he was in the past but the Padres are scoring runs(31 in the last five days), so don’t be afraid to use Nola in GPP games today.
The other infield play today is Donovan Solano ($4,300 on DK, $2,500 on FD). The Giants will face a lefty tonight in Nick Margevicius. Solano has hit left-handed pitching well this year with a 0.317 batting average, to go along with four doubles and a home run.
Outfield DFS Picks for September 9th, 2020
Wil Myers ($4,100 on DK, $3,100 on FD) now has hits in six of his last seven games, which includes a two home run performance last night. Myers has been surprisingly consistent, season, and could be at the start of a hot streak, so he is a solid play if you’re looking to get a piece of the high scoring Padres.
DJ Stewart ($2,000 on DK, $2,400 on FD) has now hit four home runs in his last three games, and multiple hits in two of those three games. You’re also getting him at or near the minimum price, which is equally enticing.
