MLB FanDuel Single Game Showdown Lineup: TOR @ BOS - 6/16/2026

We've got a Single Game Showdown tonight — TOR @ BOS at Fenway Park, first pitch 6:45PM EDT. We're captaining Willson Contreras at the 1.5x and leaning on head-to-head history: a Red Sox trio that has handled Dylan Cease, a Blue Jays group against lefty Payton Tolle, and the Green Monster turning hard contact into extra bases in a wind-in Fenway. Every dollar of the cap is in play.

Willson Contreras — MVP, $19,200

Solid head-to-head vs Dylan Cease — .286 AVG / .412 OBP / .571 SLG / .983 OPS in 14 AB (4 H, 2 XBH, 1 HR). Contreras takes the 1.5x captain slot as the best bat on the card, crushing right-handed pitching to a .934 OPS with a .247 ISO and 11 HR in 206 PA vs RHP. Cease misses bats but carries a .331 BABIP — balls in play find grass — and with the wind in at Fenway, the Green Monster turns Contreras's hard contact into doubles. The multiplier on the bat that owns this pitcher is the lineup's ceiling.

Wilyer Abreu — UTIL, $12,000

In limited AB's vs Dylan Cease — .500 AVG / .600 OBP / .750 SLG / 1.350 OPS in 4 AB (2 H, 1 XBH). Abreu is the second Red Sox bat with history against Cease, bringing a .706 OPS with a .172 ISO vs RHP and an 11.3% Barrel% overall. The same Green Monster doubles environment fits his line-drive, pull-side contact.

Kazuma Okamoto — UTIL, $10,800

In limited AB's vs Payton Tolle — .500 AVG / .500 OBP / .500 SLG / 1.000 OPS in 2 AB (1 H). Okamoto leads the Blue Jays side and brings the power to do damage — a .817 OPS with a .226 ISO and 4 HR in 69 PA vs LHP, backed by a 14.6% Barrel% and 50% HardHit%. Tolle's a tough lefty, but Okamoto's contact quality plays right into the Green Monster off the wall.

Ernie Clement — UTIL, $9,200

Clement is the contact piece of the Blue Jays group against Tolle — a .782 OPS with a .197 ISO vs LHP and an elite 9.9% K%, the lowest in this lineup. He puts everything in play, and at Fenway the Green Monster rewards his line-drive, gap-and-oppo approach with extra bases.

Davis Schneider — UTIL, $4,200

Schneider is the value piece with a standout on-base profile against lefties — a massive 25% walk rate and a .327 OBP vs LHP. Tolle works the zone, but Schneider's plate discipline gets him on base in front of the Blue Jays order, a cheap way to add a correlated bat to the stack.

Marcelo Mayer — UTIL, $4,600

In limited AB's vs Dylan Cease — 1.000 AVG / 1.000 OBP / 1.000 SLG / 2.000 OPS in 2 AB (2 H). Mayer is the cheap Red Sox bat with perfect history against Cease, and at $4,600 he's a low-cost way to get a third piece of the Boston side that has handled this pitcher into the lineup.

The lineup at a glance — Willson Contreras captains the Red Sox side that owns Dylan Cease, with Wilyer Abreu and Marcelo Mayer adding more head-to-head history against him; Kazuma Okamoto, Ernie Clement and Davis Schneider attack lefty Payton Tolle on the Blue Jays side, and the Green Monster turns hard contact into extra bases in a wind-in Fenway. Four of the six bats — Contreras, Abreu, Mayer and Okamoto — line up against the exact pitcher they've performed against historically. Every dollar of the cap is in play.

Let's have a big night! 💰🔥
