MLB DFS: Optimal FanDuel, DraftKings picks, player pool, advice for April 22, 2021

Before setting your MLB DFS lineups for daily Fantasy sites like DraftKings and FanDuel on Thursday, you NEED to see the top MLB DFS picks from Mike McClure. McClure is a daily Fantasy pro with nearly $2 million in career winnings. 

When it comes to MLB, McClure is at his best. Recognized in the book "Fantasy Football (and Baseball) for Smart People: How to Turn Your Hobby into a Fortune," McClure's proprietary MLB DFS projection model simulates each game 10,000 times, taking factors such as matchups and recent results into account. This allows him to find the best values on every site.

On Wednesday, McClure had Reds pitcher Tyler Mahle as one of his top picks on both sites. The result: Mahle struck out nine over 6 2/3 scoreless innings to return 51 MLB DFS points on FanDuel. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on the way to a profitable day.

One of McClure's top MLB DFS picks for Thursday is Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers at $5,800 on DraftKings and $3,400 on FanDuel. Part of McClure's optimal MLB DFS strategy also includes stacking Devers with second baseman Enrique Hernandez ($4,100 on DraftKings, $2,800 on FanDuel) for a matchup he loves against the Mariners and righty starter Justin Dunn. 

McClure is also targeting a player who is set to EXPLODE for huge numbers on Thursday! The stars are aligning for him to return tournament-winning value, and he comes at a price that won't break the bank. This pick could be the difference between cashing in big or going home with nothing!
