Friday’s MLB DFS slate centers on value and upside across 12 games, led by Dylan Cease’s favorable Coors-to-Padres arc and Luis Gil rounding into form for New York. Martin Perez is a salary-conscious pivot in Cleveland, while Nick Kurtz stands out as the weekend’s elite power rookie target. Randy Arozarena profiles as a main-event upside play against Yusei Kikuchi, and Ramon Laureano’s split-heavy profile adds flexible outfield/OF3 options. Reds’ mini-stack (De La Cruz, Friedl, Lux) and Brewers’ trio (Chourio, Turang, Frelick) offer salary relief with upside against weaker matchups. Royce Lewis is heating up at home, Brandon Pfaadt’s road ERA remains a caveat, and Brandon Pfaadt’s road woes make him a risky one-off. The article also spots J.T. Ginn’s tough home assignment for Reds at Athletics, and Pallante’s hard contact allowed to lefties fuels Chourio’s bloom into 20/20 season territory.
