MLB DFS players entering tournaments, cash games, or 50-50s on FanDuel or DraftKings for Sunday's slate have plenty of tough choices to make. Investing in Mike Trout, Whit Merrifield or Manny Machado is a great way to guarantee production, but all three come with a hefty price tag on both sites. They'll eat up a large portion of your MLB DFS salary cap right off the bat, so making the correct call on the value of MLB DFS picks such as them will be critical when evaluating Sunday's MLB DFS slate.
With FanDuel hosting a $150K MLB Monster and DraftKings running a $200K 18th Hole Special that awards $50K to the winner, there are some difficult decisions for MLB DFS players to make. Before setting your MLB DFS picks for Sunday's action, be sure to check out the MLB DFS advice, strategy and projections from SportsLine daily Fantasy expert Mike McClure.
McClure is a daily Fantasy pro who has won almost $2 million in his career. And when it comes to daily Fantasy baseball, McClure is at his best. Recognized in the book "Fantasy Football (and Baseball) for Smart People: How to Turn Your Hobby into a Fortune" as a top MLB DFS player, McClure's proprietary projection model simulates each game 10,000 times, taking factors such as matchups and recent results into account. This allows him to find the best values on every site.
On Saturday, McClure had Padres outfielder Trent Grisham as one of his top options on both FanDuel and DraftKings. The result: Grisham went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and one run scored, producing over 20 points on both sites. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on the way to a profitable day.
Now, with the 2021 MLB season rolling on Sunday, McClure has locked in his top MLB daily Fantasy picks. Head to SportsLine now to see them.
One of McClure's top MLB DFS picks for Sunday is Padres outfielder Jurickson Profar at $2,500 on FanDuel and $3,200 on DraftKings. Profar comes at an extremely affordable price on Sunday, which will allow you to load your MLB DFS roster with big-time playmakers.
In addition, Profar is coming off a strong showing in San Diego's 7-4 victory over the Texas Rangers on Saturday. In fact, the 28-year-old finished with three hits in the win, and he's now recorded at least one hit in six of his last seven outings. He's a complete steal at this price point, so confidently lock him in your MLB DFS lineups on Sunday and look for a big return.
Part of McClure's optimal MLB DFS strategy also includes rostering Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers at $5,400 on DraftKings and $2,900 on FanDuel. Devers has been red-hot against the Orioles, recording four hits, two home runs, four RBI and three runs scored in his last two games against Baltimore.
Devers will have a great opportunity to keep the momentum going on Sunday versus Orioles starter Jorge Lopez, who enters Saturday's AL East showdown with a 7.71 ERA. Lock Devers in as one of the top overall MLB DFS plays on Sunday.
McClure is also targeting an undervalued player who is set to explode for huge numbers on Sunday. The stars are aligning for him to return tournament-winning value and he comes at a price that won't break the bank. You can only see who it is here.
