Gambling911.com has your Daily Fantasy Sports MLB tips and betting picks for the week of June 1 in regard to the Washington Nationals.

As pointed out by ESPN.com:

The Nationals are home for seven games this week, where their staff has had an ERA of 2.87 and a .237 BAA -- as compared to a 4.08 ERA, .281 BAA on the road. Jordan Zimmermann and Max Scherzer each go twice, once against a DH-less Blue Jays team hitting just .240 on the road without having to send a pitcher to the plate.

For the sports bettor, this means side with the Nationals whenever the price is right (under -160 is doable in this situation). 

The best value should be had on Wednesday with Toronto’s Mark Buehrle keeping the price down against a yet-to-be-determined Nationals starting pitcher.

Some bad news for the Nationals as Bryce Harper is currently on the DL. 

Daily Fantasy Sports MLB Stars:

Ian Desmond went 3-for-5 with two doubles in Wednesday's victory over the Cubs and has hit in nine of this last ten games.  His batting average continues to climb.  He’s priced at $3400.

Monday:

One of the hottest daily fantasy prospects this week will be Washington’s Wilson Ramos, 9-for-13 against R.A. Dickey and .277 on the season thus far so the price will be right Monday night.

Just make sure he’s in the lineup.  Ramos hasn't had a starting streak longer than four games or shorter than three in the 2015 season.

Ian Desmond has gone 5-for-23 against Dickey.  Sideline him this day.

Tuesday:

Ian Desmond has not faced Marco Estrada but his performance of late makes him an enticing play though a bit of a gamble. 

Wednesday:

Denard Span is 12-for-33 against Buehrle with 5 RBIs and 2 homers. He’s hit in all but two of his last ten games.

Ian Desmond should be on your roster this day as he has hit 2-for-6 against Buehrle.
