Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – May 13

Pittsburgh Pirates (Cole) at Milwaukee Brewers (Estrada)

Cole has been a bit unfortunate with the long ball so far this year and that can be a problem going in to Milwaukee. As much as I want to use him today, I will wait to see if Ryan Braun is activated from the disabled list. In all likelihood, I’ll shy away from Cole today. I do like the corner infielders, though.

Ike Davis (1B) – $5624

Pedro Alvarez (3B) – $6025

Estrada has always had problems giving up too many home runs, but his nine home runs given up so far this year is absurd. Until that trend starts to even out a little bit, I’ll be avoiding Estrada, especially where he’s priced as a top-10 pitcher today. I’ll stay away from the Milwaukee hitters against Cole for the most part today, too.
