Daily Fantasy Baseball 2015: MLB DraftKings Optimal Playoff Lineup for October 9

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.

Thursday features four MLB games in the afternoon and eight at night.  Clayton Kershaw is an easy No. 1 choice among the eight starting pitchers available in early contests, but his $14,700 salary will likely have DraftKings daily fantasy players searching for a cheap second arm.

With only nine games on the MLB schedule Thursday, many of the league's biggest stars are not in action.

This adds to the challenge for DraftKings daily fantasy players, who must rely heavily on scoring points from unlikely sources.  The lack of big names is particularly evident on the mound, where Corey Kluber is the only pitcher priced above $11,000.

Thursday's slate of MLB action features two games in the afternoon and six at night.  Both early and late DraftKings contests contain small fields of available players to choose from.

Sleepers are more difficult to find than usual, especially when it comes to pitchers.  For example, plunking down $11,100 for Felix Hernandez is a much better value than hoping for the best with Jorge De La Rosa at $8,700.

Even though Tuesday night's MLB schedule features a full slate of 15 games, there's a distinct lack of big-name pitchers taking the mound.  DraftKings daily fantasy players may want to employ a pair of second-tier arms instead of a traditional ace.
