Top MLB DFS Picks for 28th July: DraftKings ft. Royce Lewis, Garrett Crochet & more
All MLB teams, barring any postponements, are on the MLB schedule today, which is great news for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) players. They'll have every MLB star available and quite a few really good pitchers to choose from. Here's who you need to have your eyes on for July 28's games.
Top pitchers for MLB DFS July 28
Garrett Crochet ($10300 on DraftKings)
Garrett Crochet has been arguably the best pitcher in baseball. The Chicago White Sox ace has six wins (no small feat for a team with just 27 overall) and a 3.07 ERA. He has the second-most strikeouts in MLB as well, so pick him.
Cole Ragans ($10000 on DraftKings)
Cole Ragans has been excellent all season for the Kansas City Royals. He has a 3.23 ERA and 146 strikeouts (sixth-most in MLB) with a 1.15 WHIP. He should be the pick most days, but especially today.
Bailey Ober ($8500 on DraftKings)
Bailey Ober has been good for the Minnesota Twins. He has a 1.06 WHIP and 110 strikeouts. He gets a strong matchup against the offensively-challenged Detroit Tigers.
Top hitters for MLB DFS July 28
Royce Lewis ($5200 on DraftKings)
When he's on the field healthy, Royce Lewis is as good as any hitter. A .296 batting average, 1.046 OPS, and 11 home runs in just 26 games played prove that. Pick the Twins star today.
Shohei Ohtani ($6500 on DraftKings)
Shohei Ohtani should be in every DFS lineup every single day. The Los Angeles Dodgers star is poised to win MVP as a DH, meaning he's been incredible at the plate: 3.18 average, 32 home runs, 76 RBI, and a 1.051 OPS.
Jose Ramirez ($6,000 on DraftKings)
Jose Ramirez has a .833 OPS with 24 home runs this season and the second-most RBI in baseball. The Cleveland Guardians star is a must-have for daily lineups.
Budget picks for MLB DFS July 28
Andres Gimenez ($3800 on DraftKings)
Andres Gimenez is not exactly thriving right now for the Cleveland Guardians, but he's at a discounted price and was an excellent hitter in the past. He's worth the chance at such a low price on DraftKings.
Luis Arraez ($4300 on DraftKings)
Luis Arraez offers virtually no power, but at the discounted price he is on July 28, his .308 average is unrivaled. He is one of the best contact hitters in baseball and should be picked up.
Victor Robles ($3000 on DraftKings)
Victor Robles has made few plate appearances for the Seattle Mariners so far, but he's been pressed into action. His .302 average and .826 OPS are good metrics that you don't find for $3000 on DraftKings.
