MLB DFS Picks and Lineups: July 25, 2026
Fifteen games and confirmed lineups across the board for July 25, 2026. COL at MIL tops the run environment at 10.07 projected runs, and the pitching pool splits cleanly today. Salaries below read DraftKings first, FanDuel second, and any arm showing n/a on DraftKings is a FanDuel only play because that game sits outside both DraftKings classic slates. Eury Perez sits at the top of the board with the lowest vulnerability score on the slate at 26.
