This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series. By the time Saturday night rolls around, a lot of the baseball action will be done. However, there are still six MLB games starting at 7:15 p.m. ET or later. This gives you some options for your DFS lineups, so here are my recommendations for the final Saturday of June.
