FanDuel Best MLB DFS Picks: Dodgers vs. Yankees 10/30/24
Los Angeles Dodgers vs. New York Yankees
October 30, 2024 8:08 pm EDT
Major League Baseball presents FanDuel baseball fans with a World Series matchup featuring the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Let’s take a look at this MLB game from a DFS perspective.
Before we dive into the New York Yankees vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Game let’s review the rules for the FanDuel MLB single Game showdown contest.
FanDuel Single Game Contest Rules
Here are the FanDuel single game contest rules. You have $60,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team MVP. The MVP accumulates 2x times the standard FanDuel fantasy points value.
The remaining four players in your lineup will be one star and three flex plays. The star player will receive 1.5x the standard fantasy points value. The final three flex positions will receive the standard FanDuel points value. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your MVP position if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) FanDuel single Game contest.
If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game contest, I highly recommend that you check out the FanDuel website for more details.
*It should be noted that FanDuel does not utilize the pitcher position in single game MLB contests. Having stated that, only batters are available for single game MLB lineups on the FanDuel platform.
Here are my FanDuel picks for this evening’s Los Angeles Dodgers vs. New York Yankees matchup.
FanDuel MLB Player Selections
MVP-Freddie Freeman, First Baseman, Los Angeles Dodgers $8,500
On Wednesday evening, Major League Baseball presents the fifth game of the 2024 World Series featuring the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
How are these two teams playing entering this MLB playoff game? The Los Angeles Dodgers arrive at the fifth game of the 2024 World Series playing rather good baseball. The Dodgers have won 19 of the team’s last 26 games played this season, including a dominating 2-0 shutout victory over the San Diego Padres last week.
Similar to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the New York Yankees have been playing quality baseball recently. The Yankees have won eight of the team’s last 13 games played this season, including a 5-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians ten days ago.
It should be noted that the New York Yankees defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 11-4 in last night’s Game 4 of the 2024 World Series.
Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman arrives at tonight’s World Series game on the heels of a four-game hitting streak. In that four-game hitting streak just noted, Freeman compiled five hits (four home runs), ten RBIs (runs batted in), one walk, and four runs scored in 17 plate appearances.
As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct MVP is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) contest. Having stated that, I am rolling with Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman at the MVP position for this one game MLB DFS slate.
Star-Giancarlo Stanton, Outfielder, New York Yankees $8,0500
In his last nine Games played for the New York Yankees this season, outfielder Giancarlo Stanton has compiled 12 hits (five home runs), eight RBIs (runs batted in), six runs scored, one stolen base, and four walks in 39 plate appearances.
I fully expect New York outfielder Giancarlo Stanton to continue his outstanding play on the baseball diamond versus the Los Angeles Dodgers later today.
Flex plays I like to play well (FanDuel price noted): Shohei Ohtani, Outfielder (Los Angeles Dodgers) $9,500: Aaron Judge, Outfielder (New York Yankees) $8,000: Teoscar Hernandez, Outfielder (Los Angeles Dodgers) $6,500.
