MLB DFS Hitting Stacks recommendations for the Saturday slate.

First Base – Carlos Santana, Cleveland Indians

DraftKings $5,100, FanDuel $4,300

Anthony Desclafani has massive trouble against left handed bats, allowing a .315 BAA and a .508 SLG.

Second Base – Jeff McNeil, New York Mets

DraftKings $4,900, FanDuel $3,600

This season Jake Arrieta has struggled against left handed bats. He is allowing a .306 BAA and a massive 41.5 hard hit rate. Target him in DFS today.

Third Base – Rafael Devers, Boston Red Sox

DraftKings $5,600, Fanduel $4,500

Jordan Zimmerman is a gas can for us in DFS and at home he is even worse. He has trouble walking left handed bats and with a .488 SLG he has trouble not giving up extra bases.

Shortstop – Francisco Lindor, Cleveland Indians

DraftKings $4,900, FanDuel $4,200

Same story with Santana, I want the lefties here in DFS and it helps Lindor is a switch hitter, so we get the platoon the whole game.

Outfield – J.D. Martinez, Boston Red Sox

DraftKings $5,000, Fanduel $4,300

What’s not to love about J.D. against a gas can? Although Zimmerman gives up less power to righties, he strikes them out less also. This means the ball is going to be put in play and I’ll take my chances with one of the league’s best.

Outfield – Michael Conforto, New York Mets

DraftKings $4,400, FanDuel $3,500

As I said with McNeil, Arreita struggles with getting left handed bats out. Conforto is one of the league’s top young left handed bats and can go deep at any second, I think he pokes one out of the yard here so use him in DFS today.

Outfield – Andrew Benintendi, Boston Red Sox

DraftKings $4,300, FanDuel $3,500

This is a ridiculous DFS price for one, and for two Zimmerman struggles with lefties as I said with Devers. I always love getting the leadoff hitter against a terrible pitcher in the team I’m going to stack.

MLB DFS Hitting Stacks

1.) Boston Red Sox

Surprise? Jordan Zimmerman is a complete gas can. At home he holds a 5.40 ERA, a .340 wOBA, and a 49.3 hard hit percentage. That hard hit rate is what I’m intrigued with because these Sox hit the ball HARD. With the power that they hold I think they could easily chase Zimmerman within four innings today.

2.) New York Mets

I know, I know the Mets in DFS? Just listen. Arrieta cannot get left handed bats out, he is horrible. With the likes of McNeil, Conforto, Cano, and Dominic Smith on the left side of the plate I think Arrieta has loads of trouble. Then on the right side of the plate you have to worry about the Mets’ best hitter this year, Pete Alonso. I think Arrieta is in for a rude awakening at Citi Field today.
