Fantasy Baseball

A full day of action with some big names on the board can lead to tough choices for your daily fantasy baseball team. Whether you plan on entering contests during the day, night or both, here is a look at some of the best and worst options for Saturday.

Pitchers to Draft

Corey Kluber, Cleveland Indians ($11,300)

Following Monday's top-heavy slate, Tuesday contains several strong mid-level starters to consider for daily MLB lineups.

The more successful daily fantasy baseball teams are not always the ones filled with obvious names. When looking to fill out a lineup for Tuesday's contests, you shouldn't be afraid to find some cheaper talent to allow you to spend big in other places.

Sonny Gray, Oakland Athletics ($10,100)

A new week, another batch of waiver-wire additions just the way you like 'em: hot and fresh out of the oven.

Some players mentioned last week—including Noah Syndergaard, Avisail Garcia, Marlon Byrd, Torii Hunter, Jimmy Nelson and Shin-Soo Choo—are already owned in many leagues, but they remain quality pickups if they're available.

With a full schedule and many top names in action Saturday, picking a daily fantasy baseball team could end up being quite a challenge. No matter who you select, there will likely need to be a lot of compromising in value across the board.

Here is a look at the best and worst players to pick for May 16.

Felix Hernandez, Seattle Mariners ($11,600)

Looking to build the bank for a great weekend? DraftKings daily fantasy baseball provides a great opportunity to do just that. With a massive schedule, we've taken the liberty of picking out the best MLB position players for owners.

In anticipation of the Friday slate, here's a look at the top players to target at several positions across the MLB.

If you had to take one pitcher for your DraftKings lineup on Friday, it would have to be the New York Yankees' Michael Pineda. He comes into his start against the Kansas City Royals with a 5-0 record, 2.72 ERA and 1.51 WHIP this season.

A lack of true aces on the board could make Tuesday a big day for the hitters in daily fantasy baseball. If you find the right value for pitchers and combine it with some big-time performers at the plate, you could be in for a nice showing on May 12.

Some players mentioned last week—including Rusney Castillo, Trevor Plouffe, Alex Colome and Blake Swihart—are already owned in many leagues, but they remain quality pickups if they're available.
