DFS Amateur Hour - Tuesday Lineups

Written by

Published on September 15, 2015

I lit $20 on fire yesterday, bringing my bankroll down to $1306.24. Today I set five $25 Super Grand Slam entries, one of which I won last week, i.e., I invested $100. It turns out I probably should have gone in for more as there's massive overlay in that contest with 41,023 entries and a $1.5 million payout. If you do the math, Fanduel took in $1,025,575 and is paying out nearly 1.5 times that.

Here are my lineups:

Pos	$25 GS	$	$25 GS	$	$25 GS	$
P	Strasburg	10100	Holland	9500	deGrom	11100
C	Posey	3500	Posey	3500	Molina	2200
1B	Mauer	2400	Ortiz	4800	Mauer	2400
2B	Rendon	3300	Pedroia	3000	Dozier	3000
3B	Duffy	2700	Carpenter	3300	Sano	4300
SS	Seager	3100	Peralta	2200	Escobar	3300
OF	Harper	5300	Heyward	3200	Piscotty	3000
OF	Jay	2200	Jay	2200	Heyward	3200
OF	Reddick	2400	Castillo	3200	Robinson	2500
	Total	35000	Total	34900	Total	35000

Pos	$25 GS	$	$25 GS	$

I used three pitchers among the five lineups: Stephen Strasburg (2) against the Phillies, Derek Holland (2) against the strikeout-prone Astros and Jacob deGrom at home against the Marlins. I stacked Nationals, Cardinals, Twins, Dodgers, Giants and Red Sox. Commonly owned players include: Buster Posey (3),Corey Seager (3), Joe Mauer (2), Brian Dozier (2), Matt Duffy (2), Miguel Sano (2), J.D. Martinez (2), Josh Reddick (2), John Jay (2) and Jason Heyward (2).
