MLB DFS Picks - July 9
Pitchers
Chris Sale ($10400 on DraftKings, $11500 in Fanduel)
Recently named an All-Star for the first time since 2018, Chris Sale is pitching like he did a half-decade ago. The 6-foot-6 southpaw will enter Tuesday's game with Arizona touting a 2.71 ERA alongside 11 wins, which ties him for the most in MLB. Moreover, the 35-year-old has allowed just one earned run in each of his past three starts.

Zack Wheeler ($9500 on DraftKings, $10600 on Fanduel)
Zack Wheeler's play is making his five-year, $118 million offseason extension with the Philadelphia Phillies look well worthwhile. In 18 starts, the Georgian ace is 9-4 with a 2.74 ERA in 111 innings of work. However, the Gold Glover has also struggled against the Dodgers, who are Tuesday's opponent. In six career games against Los Angeles, Wheeler has an ERA of 4.72.
Bailey Ober ($8700 on DraftKings, $10400 on Fanduel)
Bailey Ober enters the Twins' Tuesday game against the Chicago White Sox with a 1.50 ERA over his past three appearances. Over that span of time, Ober has struck out 27 batters in 21 innings and completed a complete game shutout of the A's on June 22. However, due to early season struggles, Ober remains 8-4 with an ERA of 4.12.
Top Hitters
Shohei Ohtani ($6600 on DraftKings, $4800 on Fanduel)
Shohei Ohtani has been on fire for the Los Angeles Dodgers of late. In his past 11 games, the Japanese superstar has hit .286/.423/.714 with an OPS of 1.137 alongside five home runs and seven RBIs. In three career plate appearances against Zack Wheeler, Ohtani is 1-for-1 with a pair of walks.
Trea Turner ($6000 on DraftKings, $3600 on Fanduel)
In the absence of Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper, who have been on the injured list for the Phillies, Trea Turner has stepped up. Over the past two weeks, Turner's .340 batting average leads the team, as do his four home runs and 11 RBIs. Facing off against his former team, watch out for Turner to get some offense going against the Dodgers.

Rafael Devers ($6200 on DraftKings, $4000 on Fanduel)
Since July 1, Rafael Devers' 1.376 represents the third-highest value in MLB. Fresh off a 10-year, $313.5 million offseason extension with the Red Sox, Devers has hit .293/.378/.593 this season, and looks set on surpassing his career-high number of home runs.
Budget Picks
Jeimer Candelario ($4300 on DraftKings, $3000 on Fanduel)
The month of June was a good one for Cincinnati Reds infielder Jeimer Candelario. In 21 games last month, Candelario hit .268/.282/.500. Additionally, of his total 14 home runs and 41 RBIs on the season, last month saw the 30-year-old smash five and 15, respectively.
Jackson Chourio ($3700 on DraftKings, $2800 on Fanduel)
Venezuelan rookie Jackson Chourio is already garnering acclaim for his unique mixture of hitting and speed. Just 24 years of age, the Milwaukee Brewers outfielder has hit .247/.297/.388 with nine home runs and 35 RBIs this season. Prior to his streak finally ending on July 7, Chourio had gone 12 straight contests with at least a base hit.

Alex Bregman ($4200 on DraftKings, $3200 on Fanduel)
In the throes of an important contract year, Alex Bregman took a while for his bat to awaken. After hitting just .221 through April and May, the third baseman has now hit .305 for the Houston Astros since June 1.
Now hitting .251/.313/.402 with 10 home runs and 41 home runs on the season, Bregman and his Astros will kick off a three-game home series against the Marlins on Tuesday.
