Tuesday night in the MLB brings us a huge 13-games slate on DraftKings. With such a large slate of games, there are a ton of solid options to choose from, but I have tried to whittle it down to my core plays for the night. On the pitching side, there is one ace that I’m locking in, while on the hitting side I am once again focusing on some reasonably priced value options in the $4,000 salary range to lead the offense. Let’s dig in!
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.

Pitchers
Stephen Strasburg (WAS): $10,300 vs. SF
Strasburg couldn’t ask for a better spot than he gets on Tuesday pitching at home as big Vegas favorite against the weak-hitting Giants. So far this season, the Giants rank dead last in wOBA (.225) against righties while ranking 29th in wRC+ (37) and have the ninth highest strikeout rate (25.2%). Strasburg got roughed up a little bit in his last start but should bounce back nicely at home in a favorable matchup on Tuesday. Lock him in as your SP1.
