Key MLB DFS Picks and Strategies for July 18, 2025
Expert advice on daily Fantasy baseball strategies as the MLB season resumes.
After Kyle Schwarber showcased his talent at the 2025 MLB All-Star Game, where he batted 3-for-3 and won the MVP award, he emerges as a leading candidate in the MLB DFS lineup options as the season resumes on July 18. With a full slate of games available, daily Fantasy players have plenty of rested choices.
Schwarber is one of five MLB players with at least 30 home runs before the All-Star break and currently maintains a .946 OPS. He scored 14 of his 30 home runs at home this season and the Phillies continue their campaign against the Los Angeles Angels, suggesting he will be a critical player in creating effective DFS lineups.
