Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – April 22

Arizona Diamondbacks (McCarthy) at Chicago Cubs (Hammel)

Arizona is just a mess right now. The pitchers aren’t pitching well, most hitters aren’t hitting well, and they are averaging just 2.8 runs per game over their last 10 games. With the team scuffling so hard right now, I’ll avoid almost everyone on this roster. Almost.

Martin Prado (3B) – $4902

Jason Hammel is one of my favorite mid-tier pitchers for today. He gets the Diamondbacks (good news) and he’s pitched very well so far this year (better news). One guy that has really settled in nicely but whose price hasn’t risen is Starlin Castro. I like his price tonight and will have him in most lineups today.

Jason Hammel (SP) – $14,548

Starlin Castro (SS) – $5513
