Welcome back. Today’s slate has ten games. The teams with the highest implied runs scored totals tonight are the Rockies, Angels, and Athletics 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 Athletics with Sean Murphy ($3,700 on DK, $2,300 on FD). As a cash game play, Murphy is very solid. He has hits in three of his last five games, and in the games, he hasn’t had hits he has walked. With the A’s projected to be among the higher-scoring teams tonight, Murphy should be a nice player to own.
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 11th, 2020
We are going to look to the Brewers for pitching. Brandon Woodruff ($8,500 on DK, $7,600 on FD) hasn’t been going deep into games, but the number of runs he gives up is low, and his strikeouts have been high, which make for a nice mix in GPP contests. We will be facing a Cubs team that has been struggling a bit as of late striking out 26.5 percent of the time, and only scoring 3.8 runs per game in their last 5 games. Our second pitching choice today is Yusei Kikuchi ($6,200 on DK, $7,900 on FD) of the Mariners. Kikuchi is coming off a nice start against, where he struck out seven batters, over six innings. He will be facing a Diamondbacks team that is among the worst in the league against left-handed pitching.
Infield DFS Picks for September 11th, 2020
Jeimer Candelario ($3,700 on DK, $2,800 on FD). Jeimer has multi-hit games in five of his last six games, and home runs in three of his last four games. The Tigers will be in tough against Lucas Giolito tonight, so you should keep Candelario for GPP contests only.
The other infield play today is Jedd Gyorko ($3,900 on DK, $2,700 on FD). Gyorko is coming off a game where he hit two home runs and he has multi-hit games in three of his last five games. Gyorko has hit five home runs in 33 at bats against left-handed pitching so far this year and will face a lefty in Jon Lester of the Cubs tonight.
Outfield DFS Picks for September 11th, 2020
Leody Taveras ($2,300 on DK, $2,900 on FD) has five extra-base hits in his last five games. He has been leading off for the Rangers as of late, so he should get lots of at-bats going against Mike Fiers of the A’s who has an ERA close to five.
Taylor Ward ($2,800 on DK, $2,500 on FD) isn’t going to be the first player that people think of when they look at the Angels tonight, however he has three straight multi-hit games, and he is priced near the minimum in a game in Colorado. His price should allow you to get Mike Trout or Anthony Rendon into your lineup while also getting some nice productivity.
