In past seasons, transferring a player to another league could mean not facing them for several years. However, just a week after his move from the Boston Red Sox to the San Francisco Giants, Rafael Devers will go head-to-head with his previous team this Friday. Following a tumultuous departure from Boston, Devers is likely fueled by revenge, making him a compelling choice for daily fantasy players looking to optimize their lineups.

Devers has recorded hits in his first three games with the Giants. Therefore, how he factors into your daily fantasy approach on Friday should be analyzed carefully. With the Red Sox rookie pitcher Hunter Dobbins on the mound, Devers might not have insider information on him as he would with the Red Sox’s seasoned pitchers, yet knowing the current lineup and bullpen may enhance his appeal for platforms like FanDuel and DraftKings.

Other significant hitters to watch for this Friday’s MLB DFS include Pete Alonso, James Wood, Shohei Ohtani, and Fernando Tatis Jr. To secure the most informed MLB DFS selections for Friday, check out expert Mike McClure’s advice, as he has a proven track record in daily fantasy baseball. Mike has garnered over $2 million from daily fantasy independently.

On Thursday, McClure cited Spencer Strider, pitcher for the Atlanta Braves, as a top pick. He allowed just one run over six innings while striking out eight, proving his strategy can yield profitability for MLB DFS players. Now, as the season progresses, McClure shares his premier daily fantasy picks for June 20.

One highlighted pick is Jose Ramirez from the Guardians. Priced at $6,000 on DraftKings and $3,500 on FanDuel, Ramirez is enjoying an excellent offensive season. Ranked seventh in batting average (.318) and tied for tenth in OPS (.908), he’s also hitting .300 with an .856 OPS in June.

Furthermore, he has a solid track record against left-handed pitching, and against Jeffrey Springs of the Athletics, he has the potential to capitalize this Friday.

Also listed in McClure’s selections is Lourdes Gurriel Jr of the Diamondbacks. Gurriel has been consistently hitting well, boasting impressive statistics as he progresses through the season. He’s one to consider as you finalize your player roster for Friday.
