Though it may be hard to believe, we’ve already played enough games for a season the length of last year’s to have already been completed. Fortunately, we have many more weeks this season, and plenty of baseball remains before the postseason.
Let’s take a look at a packed Sunday slate from an MLB DFS perspective.

Sunday's Starting Pitcher Strategy
Bieber is clearly the best arm on the slate, and his salary might even be too low considering what he has accomplished this year. Valdez, Rodon, and Buehler make up the second tier for me. They can save you salary compared to Bieber, but they offer plenty of strikeout upside to go along with an ability to work deep into a game and earn a quality start. Lopez and Sandoval are budget options who are in play due to their recent success. There is a lot of salary flexibility depending on the risk we are willing to take on at the pitcher position.
