FanDuel MLB Lineup Advice: Tuesday (5/14)

Rain is expected this evening in five games, including potential postponements in Baltimore and Boston. Coors isn’t an option this evening, as the Rockies play in San Diego this afternoon, but we do have plenty of useful hitters along with three aces to choose from. Let me show you all the players I’m considering for cash games as well as my final lineup.

I tell myself the same thing every day when I build a lineup. This is your weekly reminder as well: “Don’t be an idiot”

It is simple, but entirely necessary. This is your hard earned cash, and you don’t have to throw it away. Think out your player selection and make the single smartest lineup you can put together. That includes watching as starting lineups roll in before lock. If a player you loved is batting 7th instead of 2nd like you were anticipating, maybe rethink things. If the opposite is true and there is a player you like, but expected to bat near the end of the order, turns up in the heart of the order, then don’t hesitate to get him plugged in. Most importantly, don’t get cute. Just play to win, period.

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.
