Friday's MLB DFS slate is packed with 14 games, providing an array of choices for lineup construction. Pitchers like Merrill Kelly from Arizona are gaining momentum, boasting a 3.39 ERA and 9.00 K/9 rate against the struggling Miami offense, while Ryan Pepiot's solid road performance for Tampa Bay against a low-scoring Baltimore lineup makes him a valuable option. Jose Quintana, despite not going deep into games, is a strong candidate against a weak Rockies offense.

Offensively, Kyle Schwarber continues to be a powerhouse, already hitting 24 home runs this season. Meanwhile, rookies like Jackson Chourio are showing promise with a blend of speed and power, making them attractive for roster spots. For budget options, Brandon Lowe and Nolan Schanuel are highlighted, both offering upside against favorable matchups.
