We were on the right side of FanDuel’s 50/50 leagues yesterday. On a high-scoring day, we were in the 60th percentile or better (in most June 5 daily leagues) with 37.5 points. Carlos Martinez’s gem at Dodger Stadium was the difference.
As always, confirm that your chosen players are in their respective lineups, and stay away from games that may be rained out. An excellent website for lineups and weather is Rotowire.com.
The following ideal lineup is for June 6 and will be for FanDuel leagues starting at 12:05 p.m. EDT.
P Clayton Kershaw, $11,700
We’re paying a premium for one of MLB‘s best pitchers in Dodger Stadium. Kershaw has averaged 13.5 FanDuel points per game in 11 starts. In his last four, the Dodgers’ ace is averaging 16.25. The power lefty has 90 strikeouts in just 72 innings pitched.
