Welcome back. Today’s main slate has twelve games. The teams with the highest implied runs scored totals tonight are the Athletics, Angels and 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. Keep an eye on player availability as the slates on DK and FD are different today.
Today’s free pick comes from the Pirates with Wilson Ramos ($3,700 on DK, $2,200 on FD). Ramos has gotten hot recently. He has three extra-base hits in his last two games. The Mets are facing Jake Arrieta who has a 5.54 ERA in Philadelphia tonight, so don’t be surprised if he has another big night.
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 15th, 2020
We are going to look at the Rays for pitching. Jack Flaherty ($9,400 on DK, $9,800 on FD). Flaherty is going to be facing a Brewers team tonight who is striking out nearly 30 percent of the time over the last week. Flaherty struck out six in his last outing in five innings, and we could see him stretch out further into the game tonight which could lead to big numbers.
Our second pitching choice today is Ljay Newsome ($6,300 on DK, 5,800 on FD) of the Mariners. Newsome has given up just three earned runs in his appearances this year, two of those being starts. The Giants have cooled off they have a 0.167 batting average over the last week and have scored just two runs. The concern will be if he can go deep enough into the game to get a win, but at his price, you should still be able to get 12-15 points from him.
Infield DFS Picks for September 15th, 2020
Anderson Tejeda ($3,200 on DK, $2,400 on FD) has hits in four straight games, and three extra-base hits and a steal in that time frame as well. At his price, it will be easy for you to get some high priced players into your lineup.
The other infield play today is Chris Taylor ($4,300 on DK, $2,800 on FD) of the Dodgers. In Taylor’s last three games, he has two home runs and two doubles, making him one of the hottest players in baseball in that stretch. He is likely to have a high ownership percentage tonight, so you might want lean toward him in cash games than GPP.
Outfield DFS Picks for September 15th, 2020
Brett Gardner ($3,200 on DK, $2,500 on FD) in his last three games has a home run and a double. He will be going up against Taijuan Walker tonight of the Blue Jays in the Bronx which is one of the friendlier home run hitting environments in baseball and Walker has a 61 percent fly-ball rate. This mix could lead to a big score for the Yankees tonight.
Mark Canha ($4,700 on DK, $3,400 on FD) is four for his last twelve, including two multi-hit games, a home run and a triple. With the A’s going into Colorado tonight, getting Canha as part of an Oakland stack could really pay off.
