Daily Fantasy Baseball 2015: MLB DraftKings DFS Playoff Strategy for October 12

If you have a case of the Mondays, you're in luck. Monday features a full slot of four MLB postseason games to watch to start your week the right way.

As each division series has gained ground, it's been easier to figure out which players are the best picks for daily fantasy baseball leagues. Star players have shined, but a few surprise players have made a huge impact for their respective teams.

The MLB postseason is here, and there have already been plenty of exciting moments. While only a few teams have played up until today, Friday presents four different playoff games to watch.

The benefit of playoff baseball is that each individual game is important with the best teams squaring off in search of a World Series championship. When it comes to daily fantasy baseball leagues, this can be a blessing as well as a curse, and it can be difficult to decide which players stand out the most during the postseason.

Among the four games on Friday's MLB postseason schedule, DraftKings daily fantasy players have several quality pitching options to choose from.

Clayton Kershaw was often an easy selection to make during the regular season, but is it worth spending $15,000 on him in the playoffs, where he has a 5.12 ERA over 51 career innings?

It's the last day of the regular season, and all 30 MLB clubs are in action.  Most of Sunday afternoon's contests are predominately meaningless and won't affect the final standings.  This has the potential to wreak havoc on DraftKings daily fantasy lineups.

However, some teams are still competing for spots in the postseason, and many players will also be looking to achieve personal statistical goals.

Rain, rain, go away. Come again when baseball season is over, because you're ruining everything right now.

Inclement weather has wreaked havoc across MLB this week, forcing three Friday postponements. As a result, all three makeup games will take place on Saturday as part of doubleheaders. As DraftKings players know by now, those are messy endeavors for daily fantasy.

Assuming Zack Greinke misses his start Monday night due to injury, for the first time in my daily fantasy career I selected the two highest-priced pitchers. Give me a second, I might shed a tear because this is a big deal.

In this column yesterday I went on and on about how exciting it was to see former Athletic greats Barry Zito and Tim Hudson take the mound for opposing sides in Oakland. I thought Zito would get shelled and Hudson would guide his team to victory with a quality start.

It's unfortunate that both the A's and Giants have played themselves out of the playoff race. Not because both teams began last season at torrid paces, then cooled off, then snuck into the playoffs. Not because the Giants won't be a validated as a dynasty until they make the tournament in an odd year. 

No, the real reason I'd like to see this game mean something is for the comedy in today's pitching matchup.
