MLB DFS Picks for Fanduel 9/2/21

What a day of MLB DFS we had yesterday - hopefully we can keep it rolling today! On today's main slate for Fanduel, we only have five games, so options are going to be pretty slim tonight. Sandy Alcantara has been dominant in recent starts, but it is never a good sign to see him as the most expensive pitching option. Because the pitcher options are so slim, there are some quality stacks and bats to consider. Let's dive in!
