Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – June 8

Homer Bailey

Cleveland Indians (Masterson) at Texas Rangers (Saunders)

Texas bats are coming alive a bit (4.5 runs/game in June so far) so I will stay away from Masterson in this one. Also, Cleveland generally is awful at hitting lefty pitching so there are not many great options to choose from this team in this game.

Carlos Santana (3B) – $5522

Saunders is avoidable but I do like the Rangers bats in this game today. I’m especially a fan of Odor’s price today and will have him in almost every cash game lineup (as long as he starts, obviously). Also, Beltre is a pretty good option at third but he is starting to get fairly expensive.

Adrian Beltre (3B) – $7856

Rougned Odor (2B) – $5129

Good luck and here’s today’s temporary lineup! Be sure to check back about 30 minutes before first pitch for updates.
