Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – April 7

Cincinnati Reds (Cingrani) at St. Louis Cardinals (Wacha)

This should be a very fun game to watch, at least from a pitching standpoint.

Both of these pitchers looked very sharp in their first outings of the season and that could lead to a lot of missed bats today. Most Reds didn’t do very well against Wacha last year but there is one name who succeeded (in a very small sample size); Joey Votto had four hits (two doubles) and a walk in eight at bats against Wacha in 2013.

Joey Votto (1B) – $6413

Most Cardinals did little against Cingrani but like the Reds, there is one name that did well in a small sample against him and regardless, he seems like a near-auto start so far this year.

Matt Carpenter (3B) – $5879
