FanDuel MLB DFS Picks: Blue Jays vs. Orioles 7/29/25

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 today’s Blue Jays vs. Orioles matchup.

FanDuel MLB DFS Picks

MVP-Vladimir Guerrero Jr., First Baseman, Toronto Blue Jays $12,800

On Tuesday afternoon, Major League Baseball presents the second 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 second game of this four-game series with the Baltimore Orioles playing below average baseball. The Blue Jays have lost two of the team’s last three games played in the 2025 MLB regular season, including a 10-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers two 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 four of the team’s last five games played this season, including a dominant 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 first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has been a standout performer for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2025. Having stated that, how has Guerrero Jr. performed from a statistical perspective? Let’s review Guerrero Jr.’s relevant game data from the 2025 MLB regular season to answer that question.

In the 105 games that Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has played for the Toronto Blue Jays in the 2025 MLB regular season, Guerreo Jr. has compiled a .294 batting average, 15 home runs, 63 walks, 56 RBIs (runs batted in), 71 runs scored, a .865 OPS (On-Base Plus Slugging) and a .398 OBP (On-Base Percentage) which ranks 12th in MLB.

In my opinion, Vladimir Guerreo Jr. is the most likely player to amass the most FanDuel points in this MLB game. For that specific reason, I am backing Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Vladimir Guerreo Jr. 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) $7,200: Gunnar Henderson, Shortstop (Baltimore Orioles) $12,400: Cedric Mullins, Outfielder (Baltimore Orioles) $8,600: Tyler O’Neill, Outfielder (Baltimore Orioles) $11,700
