FanDuel Best MLB DFS Picks: Red Sox vs. Yankees 9/13/24

Major League Baseball presents a matchup between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees. Let’s take a look at this MLB game from a FanDuel perspective.

Before we dive into the Boston Red Sox vs. New York Yankees Game let’s review the rules for the FanDuel 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 tonight’s Boston Red Sox vs. New York Yankees matchup

FanDuel MLB DFS Picks

MVP-Aaron Judge, Outfielder, New York Yankees $10,000

On Friday evening, Major League Baseball presents the second game of a three game American League series between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox.

How are these two teams playing entering tonight’s MLB game? The New York Yankees arrive at the second game of this American League series with the Boston Red Sox playing quality baseball. The Yankees have won five of the team’s last seven games played in the 2024 MLB regular season, including a 3-0 shutout win over the Chicago Cubs last week.

Similar to the New York Yankees, the Boston Red Sox are playing rather good baseball entering this evening’s American League contest. Let me be more specific. The Red Sox have won four of the team’s last seven Games played this season, including a dominating 12-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles four days ago.

It should be noted that the New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox 10-4 in last night’s second Game of this three Game American League series.

Now that we have ascertained how both of these Major League Baseball teams are currently playing let’s shift our focus to tonight’s game. New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge has simply been playing outstanding baseball for the New York Yankees in 2024. In his last 25 games played for the New York Yankees in the 2024 MLB regular season, Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge has tallied 23 hits (eight home runs), 15 runs scored, 13 RBIs (runs batted in) and 17 walks in 99 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. In summary, I am rolling with New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge as my MVP for this one game MLB FanDuel DFS slate.

Star-Juan Soto, Outfielder, New York Yankees $9,500

New York outfielder Juan Soto has been a consistent contributor to the Yankees offense in the 2024 MLB regular season. In his last two games played for the New York Yankees in the 2024 MLB regular season, Juan Soto has accumulated three hits (one home run), three RBIs (runs batted in), one run scored, and one walk in nine plate appearances.

Flex plays I like for today’s Game (FanDuel price noted): Jarren Duran, Outfielder (Boston Red Sox) $8,500: Rafael Devers, Third Baseman (Boston Red Sox) $8,000.
