This report will provide recommended DFS stack options for today’s nine-game main slate. I will also include my favorite pitching picks.
**All plays are listed in order of preference. Please check back between 10-11 AM EST as some players can receive rest days or get limited at bats especially as we get closer to the postseason. Make sure you are watching the weather as well.
Fantasy Stack: Minnesota Twins
vs. RHP Brad Keller (KCR): 6.30 Runs
**Low Risk
The Twins have been on fire this entire series and I’m not going to let off the gas before it’s over. The Twins continue to smash the competition, slashing to a massive .271 ISO, .366 wOBA, and 126 WRC+. Brad Keller has been somewhat decent this season, owning a 4.01 ERA, 4.46 FIP, and 5.19 SIERA. Keller is a ground ball pitcher with an impressive .270 BABIP and an extremely low fly ball rate. Despite his success this year I just don’t see him out performing this extremely talented and powerful Twins lineup.
Preferred Stack: Max Kepler ($4400 FD|$5300 DK), Nelson Cruz ($4500 FD|$5600 DK), Jorge Polanco ($4500 FD|$5600 DK), and Eddie Rosario ($3700 FD|$4500 DK).
Fantasy Stack: Houston Astros
vs. LHP Tommy Milone (SEA): UPDATE
**Low Risk
The Astros are another team that has been on fire in their series. Seattle has rolled out three sub par left handed pitchers and have payed the price for it in the form of Houston power righties. Houston is slashing to a massive .340 ISO, .402 wOBA, and 160 WRC+. These are incredible hitting numbers, some of the best I’ve seen all season. Tommy Milone has the pleasure of taking on this hot Astros squad and owns a 4.39 ERA, 4.97 FIP, and 4.08 SIERA. He is allowing 1.92 HR/9 and a 45% fly ball rate. Stack the Astros with confidence.
Preferred Stack: Jose Altuve ($4300 FD|$5100 DK), Alex Bregman ($3900 FD|$4800 DK), George Springer ($4400 FD|$5400 DK), and Yuli Gurriel ($3200 FD|$4500 DK).
Honorable Mention

vs. RHP Joe Musgrove (PIT): 4.70 Runs

Preferred Stack: Jeff McNeil ($4000 FD|$4400 DK), Michael Conforto ($4400 FD|$5300 DK), Pete Alonso ($4200 FD|$4600 DK), Robinson Cano ($3800 FD|$4300 DK).
Fantasy Stack: Toronto Blue Jays
vs. RHP Tom Eshelman (BAL): 5.90 Runs
