Milwaukee Brewers DFS Spin
Brewers left fielder Christian Yelich drove in one-third of his team’s runs in their 5-3 loss to the Dodgers on Saturday. In that game, the former 2018 NL MVP and went 1 for 4 with a homer, an RBI, and a run scored. Yelich is having a great season as he’s batting .322 with 10 homers, 38 RBIs, and a .912 OPS in 2024. Los Angeles will likely start rookie left-hander Justin Wrobleski on Sunday, but Yelich is batting .307 with an OPS of .848 against southpaws this year. That means Christian Yelich is worth a look in most DFS formats this weekend.
Los Angeles Dodgers DFS Spin
Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani reached base 4 times in his club’s 5-3 win over the Brewers on Saturday. Hitting out of the leadoff spot, Ohtani went 2 for 2 with a homer, a triple, an RBI, 2 runs scored, a stolen base, and 2 walks. Ohtani has been hitting the cover off the ball in 2024 to the tune of a .316/.402/.643 slash line. The two-time MVP has 28 homers and 65 RBIs on the campaign. It’s worth noting that if you do use Ohtani in DFS, you’ll likely have to organize your entire lineup around him due to his high price tag. Ohtani’s good enough that it may be worth it on Sunday.

Brewers vs. Dodgers Betting Prediction
This is a tough spot for Milwaukee. Sunday’s contest will be the Brewers 7th road game in 7 days. They’ll be facing the second-best team in the National League record-wise, and a new pitcher that has been mowing down hitters in Double-A and Triple-A this year.
The Dodgers are planning to send rookie lefty Justin Wrobleski to the hill to face the Brewers. He’ll be making his MLB debut on Sunday. In 15 starts between Double-A and Triple-A this season, Wrobleski is 5-3 with an ERA of 3.23, a WHIP of 1.08, a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 4.94, and 79 strikeouts in 78 innings of work. Young pitchers making their major league debuts often have an advantage. Further, this is because opposing teams haven’t seen them before and any scouting reports available are usually sparse or based on minor league data. I could easily see Justin Wrobleski tossing a quality start or something close to it and the potent Dodgers bats doing the rest of the work. I like Los Angeles to complete the three-game sweep at home as money-line favorites on Sunday afternoon.
