Michael Clifford breaks down every game to find the most favorable daily fantasy baseball matchups.

Philadelphia Phillies (Hamels) at Cincinnati Reds (Cueto)

The Phillies lineup is avoidable but Hamels is not. Cincinnati is the second-worst hitting team against lefty pitching this year (worse than San Diego) and Hamels has to figure it out eventually. He’s my target for second-tier pitchers.

Cole Hamels (SP) – $16,820

Targeting Hamels means I’m not targeting the Reds lineup. I do like Cueto a lot today though and because of a mix of match-up and price, he’s my favorite elite option today.

Johnny Cueto (SP) – $22,769
