Toronto Blue Jays vs. Baltimore Orioles
July 30, 2025 12:35 pm EDT
Major League Baseball presents FanDuel baseball fans with an American League matchup featuring the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles. Let’s take a look at this MLB game from a DFS perspective.
Before we dive into the Toronto Blue Jays vs. Baltimore Orioles game let’s review the rules for the FanDuel single game showdown contest.
FanDuel Single Game Contest Rules
Here are the FanDuel single game contest rules. You have $60,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team MVP. The MVP accumulates 1.5x times the standard FanDuel fantasy points value. Additionally, the MVP is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.
The remaining five players in your lineup will be flex plays. The five flex positions will receive the standard FanDuel points value. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your MVP position if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) FanDuel single game contest.
If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game contest, I highly recommend that you check out the FanDuel website for more details.
*It should be noted that FanDuel does not utilize the pitcher position in single game MLB contests. Having stated that, only batters are available for single game MLB lineups on the FanDuel platform.
Here are my FanDuel picks for tomorrow afternoon’s Blue Jays vs. Orioles matchup.
FanDuel MLB DFS Picks
MVP-Colton Cowser, Outfielder, Baltimore Orioles $5,600
On Wednesday afternoon, Major League Baseball presents the third game of a four-game American League series featuring the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles.
How are these two teams playing entering today’s MLB game? The Toronto Blue Jays arrive at the third game of this four-game series with the Baltimore Orioles playing below average baseball. The Blue Jays have lost three of the team’s last four games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including a 10-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers three days ago.
In direct contrast to the Toronto Blue Jays, the Baltimore Orioles are playing good baseball entering this afternoon’s American League game. More specifically, the Orioles have won five of the team’s last six games played this season, including an impressive 18-0 shutout victory over the Colorado Rockies last week.
Now that we have identified how both of these teams are currently playing let’s shift our focus to today’s contest. Talented outfielder Colton Cowser has been a solid performer for the Baltimore Orioles in 2025. Having stated that, how has Cowser performed from a statistical perspective? Let’s review Colton’s relevant game data from the 2025 MLB regular season to answer that question.
In the last four games that Colton Cowser has played for the Baltimore Orioles in the 2025 MLB regular season, Cowser has compiled four hits (one home run, one double), two RBIs (runs batted in), six runs scored, four walks and one stolen base.
What did we learn from the data just presented? Clearly, Colton Cowser is playing at a high-level entering tomorrow’s MLB regular season game.
In my view, Colton Cowser’s low FanDuel price of only $5,600 presents the best fantasy value on this MLB slate. For that specific reason, I am backing Baltimore Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser at the MVP position for this one game MLB DFS slate.
Flex plays I like in this MLB regular season game (FanDuel price noted): Bo Bichette, Shortstop (Toronto Blue Jays) $7,600: Gunnar Henderson, Shortstop (Baltimore Orioles) $12,800: Tyler O’Neill, Outfielder (Baltimore Orioles) $9,800: Cedric Mullins, Outfielder (Baltimore Orioles) $8,000.
