It's a summer holiday weekend and nothing is better than MLB baseball and some barbecue on the grill! Before you slap down those burgers and hot dogs on the grill make sure that your MLB DFS lineups are ready to go! We will be focusing on the 4:05p ET slate this afternoon and that means nine games on FanDuel (Main) and DraftKings (Early) and 12 games on Yahoo Fantasy. Dylan Cease will be the top pitcher and he will be joined by mid-value plays like George Kirby and Spencer Strider. On the offense, the top stacks will be the Phillies and Brewers and I am looking at some sneaky fireworks from the Tigers and Marlins. The weather may come into play for today's STL/PHI and MIA/WAS game so make sure to keep an eye on the MLB Weather center for the latest updates. Be sure to check out our MLB Tools page for MLB Vegas Odds, batter versus pitcher, MLB Lineup Generator, Player Projections and the MLB Lineups page. Now it's time to see the core plays for Saturday afternoon MLB baseball..
