Before making your MLB DFS picks on daily Fantasy sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Friday, June 20, you NEED to see the top MLB DFS picks from Mike McClure. McClure is a daily Fantasy pro with over $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 Thursday, McClure highlighted Braves pitcher Spencer Strider as his top-ranked starting pitcher and one of his top MLB DFS picks on both sites. The result: Strider allowed one run on five hits with one walk and eight strikeouts over six innings, returning 27.9 points on DraftKings and 49 points on FanDuel. Anybody who included him in their lineups could have been well on the way to a profitable day!

One of McClure's top MLB DFS picks for Friday is Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez, who is $6,000 on DraftKings and $3,500 on FanDuel for MLB DFS lineups. McClure is also rostering Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. ($4,600 on DraftKings and $3,500 on FanDuel). Gurriel has at least one hit in 19 of his last 23 games as after hitting .181 over March and April, he's raised his season average to .257. He has a home run and a double in two of his 14 career at-bats against Rockies starter Austin Gomber.
