Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – May 1

Chris Archer

Milwaukee Brewers (Estrada) at Cincinnati Reds (Bailey)

Estrada has pitched very well this year, including visits to Fenway and Philly, while hosting the Cardinals. He’s priced as one of the top pitchers though and he has a problem giving up home runs. I might just play the risk-averse game and avoid him here. We won’t know until lineups are released, but Rickie Weeks has excellent career numbers against Homer Bailey so he could be a good start.

Rickie Weeks (2B) – $3707

I guess Homer Bailey has to stop sucking at some point and what better time to do it than when a Brewers team is likely missing three of their top four hitters? I’ll risk Bailey, though I might need Gaviscon to go with it. I will have Jay Bruce in every lineup I make, though.

Homer Bailey (SP) – $15,643

Jay Bruce (OF) – $6733
