Budget picks for MLB DFS August 26

Otto Lopez ($3800 on DraftKings)

Otto Lopez got a hit and an RBI for the Miami Marlins in his most recent game, so he is seeing the ball a little better lately than his season metrics would suggest. He's cheap and has a good matchup today, so he could be a nice budget addition to DFS lineups.

Kerry Carpenter ($4400 on DraftKings)

Kerry Carpenter has a great stat line this year (Imagn)

Kerry Carpenter has only played in 60 games this year, but the Detroit Tigers player's numbers are great: .280, 12 home runs, 37 RBI and a .917 OPS. Those are fantastic stats for a player so cheap.

Jonah Bride ($4300 on DraftKings)

Jonah Bride is hitting .273 with an OPS of .810. This is in a small sample size of just 121 at-bats, but those numbers are hard to find in this price range. Pick the Marlins infielder and reap the benefits today for DFS.
