Welcome back. Today’s main slate has ten games. The teams with the highest implied runs scored totals tonight are the Braves, Yankees, and the Astros 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 Rangers with Sam Huff ($2,800 on DK, $2,000 on FD). Huff has hits in each of his last four games, including back to back multi-hit games. In that four-game stretch, Huff has hit two doubles and a home run. He is a solid play at home against Houston tonight, especially if the roof is open in Arlington.
Behind the paywall expect to find 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 25th, 2020
We are going to look to Cleveland for pitching with Carlos Carrasco ($10,400 on DK, $10,800 on FD). With Cleveland just two games back of first place, this weekend will determine where they fall into the playoff bracket. Carrasco is coming off a one-hit, eleven strikeout performance, and will face the Pirates tonight who don’t strike out at an alarming rate, but they don’t hit well either. Look for 6-7 strikeouts for Carrasco and very few runs given up.
Our second pitching choice today is Chris Bassitt ($7,900 on DK, $8,600 on FD) of the Athletics. Bassitt will be facing a Mariners team that has struck out nearly 32 percent of the time over the last five days and has a batting average of just 0.192 in that time as well. Bassitt has given up just one run in his last three starts and has struck out at least seven in each of his last two starts. This is a good matchup for Bassitt, and he should be given a full start with the A’s pushing for playoff seeding.
Infield DFS Picks for September 25th, 2020
Miguel Rojas ($3,900 on DK, $3,200 on FD) Rojas hasn’t hit a lot lately, but he has excelled against left-handed pitching this year, with a 0.515 batting average, and six doubles, a triple and two home runs. As a team the Marlins are among the best against lefties, so don’t be surprised if they score lots of runs against the Yankees tonight.
The other infield play today is Mike Moustakas ($4,300 on DK, $2,900 on FD) of the Reds. Moustakas has at least a double in each of his last three games, to go along with a home run. Moustakas likely won’t see high ownership tonight going against the Twins which makes him a good play in GPP contests.
Outfield DFS Picks for September 25th, 2020
J.D. Martinez ($4,300 on DK, $3,600 on FD) hasn’t had a great year, but he has started to play much better in recent days. In his last four games, he has three doubles and a home run. He will be facing Kyle Wright of the Braves today, who played well in his last outing but four of his previous five starts he allowed at least three runs in each of those starts.
Eddie Rosario ($4,100 on DK, $3,200 on FD) has hits in each of his last four games. In those games, he has two multi-hit games and two home runs. The Twins have been the best team in baseball at home, so look for them to score runs today, as they have the fifth-highest SLG percentage in the last five days.
