With nearly six weeks of the 2025 MLB season in the books, daily Fantasy baseball players are finally starting to fine-tune their MLB DFS lineups. Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge has been arguably the best hitter in baseball over the last several years but he's elevated his game yet again this year. Judge is slashing .423/.510/.777 with 11 home runs and 33 RBI over his first 34 games and his consistency often makes him the best option in the MLB DFS player pool.

However, he'll be heavily rostered in all MLB DFS tournaments, cash games and 50-50s, so you'll have to build variance elsewhere if you're using him in your daily Fantasy baseball lineups. Before setting your MLB DFS lineups on daily Fantasy sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Monday, May 5, 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 Friday (when McClure last made MLB DFS picks), McClure identified Giants starting pitcher Robbie Ray as one of his top MLB DFS picks on both sites. The result: Ray threw seven shutout innings and struck out eight in a win over the Rockies, returning 33.4 points on DraftKings and 55 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 Monday is Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr., who is $5,800 on DraftKings and $3,900 on FanDuel for MLB DFS lineups. McClure is also rostering Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh ($5,200 on DraftKings and $3,600 on FanDuel). Raleigh is already well-established as one of the best power-hitting catchers in baseball after slugging 91 home runs over the last three seasons. However, he's been even better in 2025, leading the MLB with 12 home runs over his first 33 games.

McClure is also targeting a player who is set to EXPLODE for huge numbers on Monday! 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!
