MLB DFS Picks for FanDuel 10/1/21

We are back with another massive MLB slate on FanDuel as we have 14 games to construct our lineups around. With there only being a few days left on the regular season, I want to prioritize playing players that are on teams still fighting for something, especially in regards to pitching. There are no serious weather concerns today, so all games should be good to go. Let's dive in!


REMINDER: If you would like the lineup that I will be using, RT the article post on Twitter at @SportsVerseHQ, DM @cobioconnell, and follow both accounts.




Weather Concerns:


MIN @ KC - There is a possibility of some smaller sized storms reaching the stadium, but the risk for a postponement is very much unlikely.


CHC @ STL - It will be rainy all day in St. Louis, but it shouldn't affect the ability to play this game through. Low risk spot.




Top Pitchers:


1. Sandy Alcantara vs. PHI ($9300)

2. Nestor Cortes vs. TB ($7900)

3. Ranger Suárez vs. MIA ($9000)

4. Eduardo Rodriguez vs. WAS ($8200)

5. Framber Valdez vs. OAK ($9500)


Riskier Plays - Lance Lynn vs. DET ($10000), Steven Matz vs. BAL ($8000)




Top Stacks:


1. Blue Jays

2. White Sox

3. Red Sox

4. Indians

5. Twins


Secondary Stacks /One-offs - Giants, Braves, Rangers
