You have to play Clayton Kershaw more now than ever on FanDuel.  It is actually easier to use him on the weekend, where there are day games available – with many bench player options.

While I may suggest players here, you should always check the starting lineups as they filter in tomorrow morning.

In DraftKings you can select more of a cheap 2nd pitcher alternative to compensate for the budget.

Since we did select Kershaw, we are also going to use the Brewers at home, in a right handed heavy stack versus the Reds Brandon Finnegan.

Ryan Braun, Jonathan Lucroy, Chris Carter and Aaron Hill will need to do the bulk of my damage on the lineup.  These guys must produce otherwise there is no chance at hitting on some money.

I rounded out the roster with taking a stab that Billy Hamilton will go off for some stolen bases attempts – and finally Nick Ahmed is the cheapest price on the board at $2000.

Despite the extreme heavy dollar number associated with Kershaw – you must play him!
