157

You never know which version of Sandy Alcantara is going toshow up, but if the version that allowed six runs in five innings to thePhillies in Miami in April does, I want some Philly bats. Bryce Harper is quiteaffordable on DraftKings at $4400 and Cesar Hernandez is $3700. Jean Segura ishitting .301 with 26 runs scored in home games and is ideal at 4000. ScottKingery is a .300 hitter at home with 13 RBI and 11 runs scored in 17 games andis well worth the 4900 spend.

Trent Thornton has been better on the road (2.98 ERA) thanat home, but I just cannot resist a few Boston hitters against him. Xander Bogaertsis hitting .324 in June with four homers and 12 RBI, while Andrew Benintendi isat .301 with eight RBI and 10 runs scored. J.D. Martinez has five homers, 10RBI and 12 runs scored this month.

Michael Wacha is coming off a rough start against the Mets,so Mike Trout is a top play of course, and Justin Upton is still at just 4100.Justin Bour gets the platoon split and is 3700 on DK.

The Rangers are going to be a popular stack against ReynaldoLopez. who has an 8.88 ERA over his past five starts. Danny Santana is hitting.357 in June with 11 runs scored, eight RBI and three steals.  Delino Deshields Jr. (4000) is hitting .327 withthree steals and nine runs scored. Elvis Andrus (5000) has 16 RBI this monthand Asdrubal Cabrera (4100) has 12. You also have to consider the Chicagohitters against Ariel Jurado. Eloy Jimenez (4800) is hitting .321 this month withsix homers and 14 RBI. James McCann can be your catcher if you want to spend4800, as he has three home runs, nine RBI and nine runs scored this month. YolmerSanchez is coming off a three-hit night with a triple and could be a punt playat 2800.

Chase Anderson has a 5.79 ERA in June. Jose Iglesias ishitting .310 with 16 RBI and 13 runs scored in road games and is a fine play at3500. You can also get both Derek Dietrich and Jesse Winker from the left sidefor under 4500.

Jakob Junis, always a top DFS target, has a 5.68 home ERA.Just about any Twins bats you like are in play, including Max Kepler (5000),Eddie Rosario and Jorge Polanco at 4600, Miguel Sano at 4200 and JonathanSchoop at 3900, and Willians Astudillo as a 3500 salary saver.

You can also try some Arizona bats against Jeff Samardzija, includingChristian Walker at 4100. German Marquez has a 10.06 June ERA so go for theDodgers’ Max Muncy at 4900 and all other Los Angeles bats deserve strongconsideration.
