Welcome to the Monday edition of the Stack City, where I’ll be going through the top MLB DFS Stacks on DraftKings and Fanduel.
We have a solid 10-game slate tonight, with all games included in the main slate on both DraftKings and FanDuel. We have some solid spots for stacking tonight.
Always make sure to read Adam’s Starting Rotation when setting your lineup. It’s hands down the best pitching article in the MLB DFS business.
Let’s dig in and see if we can find some stacks to use today!
MLB DFS Stacks – Main
Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Mike Minor
The Arizona Diamondbacks showed yesterday they have the ability to put up some offense against a southpaw as they were able to tag Ranger Suarez for 4 Runs in just 4 innings of work. They then proceeded to put another 9 runs the rest of the game. This is another good spot for this sneaky offense. Mike Minor has struggled through his first 2 starts this season. He’s so far allowed 8 ER through just 8 innings of work. He’s also allowed 5 homers in those 8 innings. Until he gets things right (he probably won’t), we should consider stacking against him.
I’m starting off this stack with Christian Walker. Over the last month, Walker has just brutalized lefties. He has a .333 ISO and a .443 wOBA vs. them. Walker has only faced Minor in 2 AB, but one of those AB left the yard. With how well he’s done against lefties over the last month and how cheap he is tonight at just $3.6k, he’s a lock for me in this stack.
Next up in this stack would be Ketel Marte. Marte comes into this game swinging a hot bat as he has hits in 4 of his last 6, including 3 3-hit games. Against lefties over the last month, he has a .431 wOBA. He stands a great chance to be productive in this matchup. He’ll mostly face fastballs tonight as Minor throws it 40% of the time. Against lefty fastballs, Marte has a .293 ISO and a .466 wOBA. At $4.7k on DK tonight, this is about as cheap as we’ll see Marte. Let’s take advantage of it tonight against a beatable southpaw.
Other bats I’ll look to include in this Diamondbacks stack will be Jordan Luplow and Carson Kelly.
Toronto Blue Jays vs. Kyle Bradish
This has the potential to be Kyle Bradish’s toughest task to date. So far in his brief career, Bradish has had some extreme struggles vs. righties. Righties have a 1.158 OPS against Bradish so far. The Blue Jays will almost certainly throw out a lineup tonight that will be 8 righties strong. It’s a nightmare scenario for the young kid. Bradish has yet to have a game this season without giving up a homer. He’s given up 10 in less than 40 innings of work. We can absolutely go home run hunting in this one.
My Blue Jays stack will start off with Bo Bichette. Over the last 30 days, Bichette has been arguably the Blue Jays best hitter vs. righties. He has a .286 ISO and a .406 wOBA. He’s coming into this game with hits in 9 of his last 10 games, including 5 multi-hit games.
Up next will be Vladimir Guerrero. Guerrero is starting to see his price creep back up, but it’s still within a reasonable range on DK at $5.5k. We’ll have enough value with the Dbacks to afford some pricey bats. The power that had gone MIA appears to be back. He’s homered 4 times over the past week, and with a matchup vs. a pitcher that can’t get righties out, he very well could do it again tonight.
With this stack, I’m also going to look to load up on Teoscar Hernandez, George Springer, Santiago Espinal, and Lourdes Gurriel. All Blue Jays are in play though.
Houston Astros vs. Taylor Hearn
Tonight will be start number 3 vs. the Astros this season for Hearn. The first two have not gone over well. He’s allowed 8 ER through just 9 innings of work against them so far. In those 2 starts, he allowed close to a combined 50% hard-hit rate with multiple barrels against him. With Hearn, I’m not going to be overly worried about splits. While righties tend to better against him, we can’t expect him to go too deep into this one so ignoring lefties will only hurt us.
Coming off his monster day yesterday, I’ll start this Astros stack off with Jose Altuve. Over the last 30 days, Altuve has an ISO near .300 against lefties. He’s shown some pop vs. them with a 55% hard-hit rate. Hearn’s favorite pitch to righties is a sinker. Against lefty sinkers, Altuve has a .378 wOBA and a .222 ISO. He should do well tonight.
Next up will be lefty smasher Chas McCormick. Should he crack the lineup tonight, I absolutely love him. Against lefties over the last month, McCormick has a .500 ISO and a .523 wOBA. He also has very solid numbers vs. lefty sinkers, with a .400 ISO and a 50% hard-hit rave vs. them.
No Astros stack would be complete without Yordan Alvarez. I always play him vs. lefties at reduced ownership. He crushes lefties as well as anyone. Against them over the last month, he has a 54% hard-hit rate and a nearly .300 ISO. Alvarez also has great numbers vs. Hearn, albeit in a limited sample size.
Other Astros I like here will be Martin Maldonado, Yuli Gurriel, and Kyle Tucker.
MLB DFS Summary
Other places I like for offense tonight will be lefties for Josiah Gray (Matt Olson and Ozzie Albies), Mariners vs. Archer, and Twins vs. Flexen.
Good luck and hope to see you in the green.
