Top MLB DFS Picks - July 10
Pitchers
Bailey Ober ($8800 on DraftKings)
Bailey Ober has been the Minnesota Twins' best pitcher lately. Now boasting 35 strikeouts over his past 26 innings, the 6-foot-9 right-hander pitched seven innings, only allowing one run against the Tigers in his last start on July 7. He will get the start as the Twins take on the White Sox on Wednesday.
Corbin Burnes ($9000 on DraftKings)
Right-hander Corbin Burnes will start for the Orioles as they take on the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. Now 9-3 with a 2.32 ERA on the season, the former Cy Young winner's 1.021 WHIP is even lower than his 1.069 figure from last season when he led the league in the category. A longtime member of the Brewers, Burnes knows the Cubs well and is 2-4 with a 3.26 ERA across 16 lifetime contests against Chicago.

Logan Webb ($9800 on DraftKings)
After winning in walk-off fashion over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday, the Giants will send Logan Webb to the mound in the second game of the series. Webb, 27, takes an NL-best 118 innings into his 20th start of the season. Now 7-6 with a 3.09 ERA on the season, Webb pitched seven innings, allowing just two earned runs in his last start against the Braves.
Top Hitters
Bryce Harper ($5600 on DraftKings)
Bryce Harper was 0-for-4 in his MLB return on Tuesday after spending 10 days on the IL. However, that does not mean that the two-time MVP is not expected to heat up soon. Currently a .299 hitter, Harper has performed well against the Dodgers, who are the Phillies' Wednesday night rivals. In 56 career games, Harper has hit .264 with 10 home runs and 35 RBIs.
Bobby Witt Jr. ($6500 on DraftKings)
Bobby Witt Jr.'s .429 batting average over the past two weeks places third in MLB over that period. Although the Royals recently dropped a three-game series to the Colorado Rockies, the star shortstop did his part. The 24-year-old went 6-for-13 with a home run and three RBIs over the course of the series in Denver. On Wednesday, Witt Jr. and the Royals will take on the Cardinals.

Jose Altuve ($5200 on DraftKings)
The Houston Astros' .263 batting average is the best in MLB, and second baseman Jose Altuve has been a huge part of that success in the box. Altuve's .309 batting average this season is the highest on his club, and the Venezuelan has managed to go 6-for-16 over his past four games.
Against Wednesday's opponent, the Miami Marlins, Jose Altuve is a career .378 hitter and boasts three home runs and 13 RBIs in 18 career games.
Budget Picks
Jonathan India ($4300 on DraftKings)
A .298 hitter over the past two weeks, Jonathan India of the Cincinnati Reds has a .270 batting average, which is higher than he has ever garnered in his career to date. Although the 27-year-old has been hitless over his past two games, India has two more contests in the series against the Rockies to chip in for his team.
Alec Burleson ($4300 on DraftKings)
Young Cardinals outfielder Alec Burleson logged a home run and three RBIs in his team's 6-0 victory over the Rockies on Tuesday. Now a .283 hitter through 83 games for the St. Louis Cardinals, Burleson has already set the best home run and RBI numbers since making his MLB debut in 2022.
