Judging by the DFS experts there will be no such thing as a chalk pick or lineup for the big 15-game MLB slate on Wednesday. This should lead to ownership percentages to also be very spread out, so find the players that you have a conviction for and play them even in tournaments without trying to be contrarian. Heck, even the stacks are evenly distributed with eight teams mostly with only three players recommended. What a great night for a FREE DFS Consensus Rankings list. Enjoy!
The Weighted Consensus for the MLB is where we publish a more in-depth version of the MLB Consensus rankings every day that considers each expert’s current DailyOverlay score to generate a Weighted Consensus ranking. To calculate the Weighted Rank Score, each expert’s DailyOverlay score for hitters and pitchers is weighted on a sliding scale from 1 to 5 with the top expert in the current standings being weighted with a five while the last place expert is weighted with a one. This method gives the higher rated experts picks more weight when compiling the overall player rankings for the day. We will include all players that generate a Rank Score of at least 6.0.
The MLB Weighted Consensus article will be part of the premium content every day expect Wednesday and the weekend this season. Sign up now for a FREE 7-day trial so you don’t miss any of the content here at DailyOverlay.
Scroll to the bottom of the article for the “Top Stacks” section that lists out the teams with the most hitters being recommended by the experts today. Also, be sure to check each team’s lineup when it is released and watch the weather before finalizing your lineups tonight.
