Major League Baseball presents FanDuel baseball fans with an American League matchup featuring the Toronto Blue Jays and the Texas Rangers. Let’s take a look at this MLB game from a DFS perspective.
Before we dive into the Toronto Blue Jays vs. Texas Rangers 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 this evening’s Blue Jays vs. Rangers matchup.
FanDuel MLB Player Selections
MVP-Wyatt Langford, Outfielder, Texas Rangers $13,600
On Wednesday night, Major League Baseball presents the final game of a three-game American League series featuring the Toronto Blue Jays and the Texas Rangers.
How are these two teams playing entering tonight’s MLB game? The Texas Rangers arrive at the third game of this three-game series with the Toronto Blue Jays playing below average baseball. The Rangers have lost seven of the team’s last nine games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including a 10-5 loss to the Chicago White Sox four days ago.
Similar to the Texas Rangers, the Toronto Blue Jays are not playing well entering this evening’s game. More specifically, the Blue Jays have lost four of the team’s last six games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including a 3-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays earlier this week.
Now that we have determined how both of these teams are currently playing let’s shift our focus to this evening’s contest. Outfielder Wyatt Langford has been a standout performer for the Texas Rangers this season. Having stated that, how has the veteran outfielder performed from a statistical perspective? Let’s examine Langford’s relevant game data from the 2025 MLB regular season to answer that question.
In 26 games that Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford has played in the 2025 MLB regular season, Langford has compiled a .244 batting average, ten home runs, 11 walks, 21 RBIs (runs batted in), ten stolen bases and 19 runs scored.
Earlier this month, in the Texas Rangers 5-1 victory over the Houston Astros, Texas outfielder Wyatt Langford played rather well. In the Rangers win over the Astros, Langford amassed two hits (one home run), two RBIs, one run scored and one stolen base. It should also be noted that in the Rangers defeat of the Astros, Langford tallied a massive 31.2 FanDuel points.
In my view, Wyatt Langford is the most likely player to accumulate the most FanDuel points in this MLB game. For that specific reason, I am rolling with Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford at the MVP position for this one game MLB DFS slate.
Flex plays I like in this game (FanDuel price noted): Corey Seager, Shortstop (Texas Rangers) $3,000: Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Toronto Blue Jays (First Baseman) $12,200: Josh Jung, Third Baseman (Texas Rangers) $10,800.
