Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – May 4

St Louis Cardinals (Lynn) at Chicago Cubs (Hammel)

Lance Lynn has been very good in half his starts but I’m not willing to flip a coin on nearly 20-percent of my budget. He could very well carve up the Cubs today but I’m not going to risk it against a team averaging six runs scored over each of the last three games.

Jhonny Peralta (SS) – $5200

Matt Carpenter (3B) – $5744

Hammel is interesting for today because he’s very cheap and has pitched very well so far this year. That said, he’s facing what is normally a very good hitting team and he’s due for a major regression. He’s a very nice gamble in a GPP but I won’t use him in double-ups.

Starlin Castros (SS) – $6155

Good luck and here’s today’s lineup!
