This article focuses primarily on 3-Man snake draft strategy. Reason being is that you can easily apply this information to H2H as well as widen up to 4-Man contests, which is the average size of the daily GPPs. I’m going to break down what I saw in 20-30 drafts today and how we can exploit our opponents using our tools over on DFS Army.
Quick Trends
- ADP 1: Trout came off the board first in nearly every draft.
- First round picks: Thor, Arenado, Martinez, and Betts
- Chalk (players owned in 100% of drafts): Trout, Thor, Arenado, Story, Springer, Martinez, Yelich, and Betts

Draft Projections & Rankings
The default draft rankings by position in Draft for their top positions. While most of these would be solid plays, they are vastly different than our projections and grades we developed in house at DFS Army where take into account many different metrics that these do not. Combining our brand new Starting Lineups Page, Domination Station, Articles, and research station, you can quickly see where some players in absolute smash spots should be drafted higher than what’s on this list.

Strategy
- Pitching: Check in on our Carnage rankings from the Full Count, we have a lot of places to go today. No need to reach
- infield: On a 15 game slate, there’s no scarcity in hitters you can target. No real weather concerns.
- outfield: Coors is in effect tonight, but it’s a bit cooler out here in Denver today with scattered showers. It shouldn’t effect the game, but hitting might be tempered.
Player spotlight: Everyday we high-light one player that went undrafted. Feeling contrarian tonight? Look no further than Kurt Suzuki. Projected on Draft at 0.4 (as of this writing) he’s flying under the radar. Again. If he starts today, he could be the lynch pin that takes you to the promise land.
