Gambling911.com has your Blue Jays vs. Indians series daily fantasy Baseball picks for April 30 through May 2.

Best DFS Picks April 30 – Danny Valencia

Best DFS Picks May 1 - Carlos Carrasco, Carlos Santana

Best DFS Picks May 2 – Michael Saunders

Four of six games in this series played in Cleveland have gone UNDER 7, however, the OVER is 7-2 in Indians last 9 home games.  More scoring could translate into a daily fantasy-friendly series.

April 30 –

Danny Valencia – He’s a “must have” on your Thursday roster after going 2-for-3 against TJ House with a homer.  He has an ERA of .455 for the month of April.

May 1 –

Carlos Carrasco has not pitched past 6.1 innings.

He’s has trouble with the likes of Jose Bautista (2-for-4 with an RBI), Jose Reyes (2-for-3 with a double) and Josh Thole (2-for-3 with an RBI). 

That said, Bautista has struggled this season, Reyes is on the DL and Thole is 0-for-6 during the month of April.  Carrasco is coming off a bad loss due primarily to an injury suffered in the prior start.  Otherwise, he has permitted only one run in the two games in which he pitched 5 innings or more. 

At least 17 runs have been scored in three of the last four starts featuring Mark Buehrle.  We remind you that the OVER was 7-2 in the last nine games overall played at Cleveland heading into this series. 

Michael Bourn, while lackluster during the month of April, has gone 4-for-9 versus Buehrle. 

David Murphy has gone 3-for-5 vs. Buehrle.  

Carlos Santana is 6-for-18 with 3 RBIs against the Blue Jays starter.   

Jason Kipnis is 2-for-7 with two doubles against Buehrle.

May 2 –

Michael Saunders is 2-for-3 with a double against Trevor Bauer.
