Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – June 17

Chicago Cubs (Samardzija) at Miami Marlins (DeSclafani)

Samardzija has had a problem with the long-ball lately and I’m not sure that going to face the Marlins will necessarily help that. Sure, it’s a good pitcher’s park. It’s also the home of Giancarlo Stanton. I would be looking at the left side of their infield for hitters tonight. Both are on streaks and both are among the small handful of Cubs players that can actually hit lefties.

Starlin Castro (SS) – $6752

Luis Valbuena (3B) – $5333

Anthony DeSclafani is not even offered tonight so he’s not a concern. Stanton is on a bit of a hot streak so he’s not a bad option for tonight. I’ll also be looking at Casey McGehee as he just can’t stop hitting and still has a fairly cheap price.

Giancarlo Stanton (OF) – $8397

Casey McGehee (3B) – $5908
