9/9 MLB DFS Winner: Shin-Soo Choo
As Wes had him in our Premium Gold Cheatsheet as a value outfielder, Shin-Soo Choo lit it up against the Baltimore Orioles, going 3-for-6 with two RBI and a run scored from the leadoff spot in the order.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Choo has had one of his best statistical seasons in his career in 2019. He is currently sitting at 21 HRs and is one away from tying a career-high. Expect him to finish the year around .270 with 25 HRs while the Rangers explore what they have going into 2020.
9/9 MLB DFS Winner: Sandy Alcantara
Here is a screenshot from our Premium Gold Pitcher Projection Model. Sandy Alcantara of the Miami Marlins was a middle-of-the-pack choice in terms of prices, but he pitched like an ace against the Kansas City Royals. He pitched a complete game shutout, allowing just four hits and two walks while racking up eight strikeouts as well.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Alcantara has now lowered his ERA to 4.04 with this gem.. All the numbers are looking good for what you want a young starting pitcher to have, so expect him to continue putting innings on his arm and pitching effectively in September.
9/9 MLB DFS Winner: Wilson Ramos
Here is a screenshot from our Premium Hitter Projections of the cheapest catchers/first base options. Wilson Ramos was listed for $2,400 on FanDuel and $4,100 on DraftKings and was a steal for anyone who added him to their lineup. He ended up going 3-for-4 with a double, homer, three RBI, a pair of runs and a walk against the Phillies.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Ramos has been on fire for the past month, batting .416 in that span. With this stretch, he could finish with an average of .300 for the season. Another good offensive season and expect Ramos to keep putting up solid lines in the boxscore throughout September.
9/9 MLB DFS Winner: Houston Astros Offense
The Houston Astros had an offensive explosion against the Seattle Mariners last night as they put up 21 runs on 22 hits with seven walks thrown in there as well. Designated hitter Yordan Alvarez had the best night of the group going 4-for-6 with three doubles, six RBI and a run scored.
Outlook for the rest of the season: The Houston Astros have the capability to put up some scary numbers like this against subpar pitching. They are currently tied for the best record in MLB with the New York Yankees but own the tiebreaker.
