There are 15 games on the MLB slate today, which means every single team is supposed to be in action. That's great news for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) players, since all of the league's best hitters are probably playing and several aces are on the mound. Here's who you need to be looking at today.


Top Pitchers for MLB DFS June 28

Ronel Blanco ($9800 on DraftKings, $9600 on FanDuel)

Ronel Blanco has been a surprisingly good pitcher for the Houston Astros this season. Most of their staff has been underwhelming, but he is 8-2 with a brilliant 2.34 ERA. Pick him up for DFS today.

Cristopher Sanchez ($8200 on DraftKings, $9700 on FanDuel)

Cristopher Sanchez has been a key part of the Philadelphia Phillies rotation, a staff that's been among the best in baseball this year. With a 5-3 record and a 2.67 ERA, he's a great pick on any day.

Logan Gilbert ($9900 on DraftKings, $10500 in FanDuel)

Logan Gilbert has been excellent all year for the Seattle Mariners. He has five wins and a sterling 2.71 ERA. His 0.89 WHIP is second in baseball, so he's a great choice for Daily Fantasy Sports.


Top Hitters for MLB DFS June 28

Jarren Duran ($5700 on DraftKings, $4000 on FanDuel)

Jarren Duran has been very good this season in a breakout year for the Boston Red Sox. The outfielder is hitting .288 with an .831 OPS. He's also trying to make an All-Star game appearance, so he's going to play well.

Jose Ramirez ($6300 on DraftKings, $4100 on FanDuel)

Jose Ramirez is always a good choice for DFS. The Cleveland Guardians third baseman and All-Star is .278 with 72 RBI (second-most in the sport). He also has an .872 OPS, another great metric.

Shohei Ohtani ($6900 on DraftKings, $4700 on FanDuel)

Shohei Ohtani should be in a DFS lineup every gameday. He has been blisteringly hot lately, upping his season average to .322 and his OPS to 1.045. With 25 home runs and 61 RBI, he's perhaps the best MLB hitter one can get for DFS.


Budget Picks for MLB DFS June 28

J. D. Martinez ($4400 on DraftKings, $3000 on FanDuel)

J.D. Martinez is quietly putting together a very solid season. The New York Mets DH is hitting .287 and has an .859 OPS. Those numbers are more than solid and a great choice at this price range.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. ($4700 on DraftKings, $3200 on FanDuel)

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is in top form right now. He blasted a home run and had an overall good game on Thursday and is now hitting .289 with an .816 OPS. That's excellent for this value.

Nico Hoerner ($4000 on DraftKings, $2900 on FanDuel)

Nico Hoerner has been struggling a bit this season, but he's still a good player who should be bouncing back at any point. The Chicago Cubs star is a better player than most at the price he's listed today.
