FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Helper: Wednesday 7/11/18
Wednesday's main slate gives us an eerily similar scenario as last night, with a pair of pricey aces competing for your digital dollars against the always tantalizing Coors Field offense. The Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, and Cleveland Indians are also in appealing hitting spots once again.
Our daily helper is available every day to analyze FanDuel's main slate and help give you a starting point when you're building lineups. Be sure to also incorporate our great tools into your research process. Whether you're looking for daily projections, the latest starting lineups and weather, or batting and pitching heat maps to find the best matchups -- we've got you covered! And don't forget to take a listen to The Solo Shot podcast with Jim Sannes, who breaks down the MLB daily fantasy slate each day.
On that note, let's highlight some of the top options for today's FanDuel main slate.
Pitchers to Target
High-Priced Pitchers
Chris Sale ($12,600 on FanDuel): Since a pair of poor outings near the beginning of June, Chris Sale has been on a roll, producing at least 52 FanDuel points in 6 straight starts. He's really ratcheted up the velocity over that span, resulting in a ridiculous 42.9% strikeout rate, while also maintaining a 5.8% walk rate and a pristine 56.8% ground-ball rate. Perhaps it's no surprise then that he's posted a minuscule 0.79 FIP and 1.66 xFIP through this stretch. Basically, the guy is unstoppable right now, so a modest offense like the Texas Rangers doesn't figure to stand much of a chance (2.92 implied team total). Sale will cost you an arm and a leg, but he's well worth it tonight.
