MLB DraftKings & FanDuel DFS Primer: Sunday (4/17)

Here we are with our second Sunday slate of the season. This is one of my favorite days to play DFS because we actually get confirmation on almost every team’s lineup. That’s a massive advantage in this racket, especially on Sundays. This is the day where many managers choose to rest players, and that’ll surely be the case after some extensive schedule in the opening two weeks.

Sunday’s Starting Pitcher Rankings

PLAYER DK SALARY FD SALARY VALUE RISK
Zack Wheeler (PHI) at MIA $10,200 $10,200 Very High Very Low
Alek Manoah (TOR) vs. OAK $10,000 $10,000 High Low
Jose Urquidy (HOU) at SEA $8,600 $8,500 Medium Memiun
Nestor Cortes (NYY) at BAL $8,200 $8,400 Very Low Very High

Sunday’s Starting Pitcher Strategy

We mentioned this yesterday, and the same rules apply. We’re dipping into the backend of these rotations, and it’s leaving us with some cheap options. That makes lineup construction much easier, but it also makes the slate much more volatile. There are a ton of lineups that we love, though, and we’ll mention all of those in the hitter strategy section later on!
