If you have read any of my MLB articles in the past, you will know that I am a big proponent of building MLB DFS lineups using what I like to call “suited connectors” to steal a poker term. Suited connectors is the concept of utilizing multiple mini-stacks of two or three hitters from the same team in your lineup to bake in some of the correlated stacking upside along with spreading out your risk. This type of hybrid lineup construction works very well for Cash games and is also a viable GPP strategy to give your lineup some uniqueness. My sample FanDuel Lineup for Monday’s nine-game main slate takes advantage of this concept by deploying three sets of suited connectors.
As always, be sure to pay close attention to the lineups when they are released and monitor the weather leading up to game time. For reference throughout the season, be sure to bookmark our overview of MLB Park Factors and how to Use Weather to Your Advantage in MLB DFS. Also, check out our GPP and Cash Games Primers to learn more about different daily fantasy game types specific to MLB.
