Daily Fantasy Baseball DFS Value Update and Lineup – June 12

Jose Altuve

Detroit Tigers (Scherzer) at Chicago White Sox (Sale)

Both pitching options in this game are the two top options tonight (by a fair margin). The problem, of course, is that they’re facing each other (win/loss value is negated) and everybody will be on at least one of them tonight. I’ll be going a bit contrarian and avoiding both.

The question then is where to go with the hitters. Most are avoidable and I’m not taking some of the more expensive options like Victor Martinez or Jose Abreu. With two pitchers of this quality going, it’s cheap or nothing.

Nick Castellanos (DET-3B) – $4412

Austin Jackson (DET-OF) – $3989

Alexei Ramirez (CWS-SS) – $4904

Adam Eaton (CWS-OF) – $4576
