MLB GPP Stacks 9/19
In this article I will be breaking down MLB GPP Stacks 9/19. I will inform you with at least one player per position that strikes my interest and If I am interested in a player on only one site, I will be site specific. I will be using DraftKings pricing for this article.
For Sunday we will be breaking down MLB GPP Stacks 9/19 eight game slate. I will be doing stacks today since the highest DraftKings payout for baseball is 5K again with football back. Today’s highest projected run total is the Yankees vs Red Sox game at ten runs. Pitching this slate could be ugly if Carrasco is held out as the second highest priced pitcher would be Dylan Cease who has a 4.15 ERA on the road. Don’t forget to join myself and the rest of the WinDaily staff In the Discord Chat rooms as we confirm our picks as lineups get locked.
Pitcher
Josh Lindblom ($8,100)
Some players may see that he’s been listed out lately, but it was a short stay on the bereavement list. He has been a strikeout pitcher specifically against right-handed hitters striking out 35% of right handed hitters. Hitters have an ISO of .016 against him which is clearly about as awful as it gets. Much of Lindblom’s struggle has been facing left handed hitters and the Royals have 0 that truly scare me. The Royals also only have two players that have an ISO above .200 coming into this game. The strikeout upside is there and the Royals don’t have good left handed hitters, this should be a fantastic spot for Lindblom.
GPP Stacks
New York Mets
These Mets left-handed hitters draw an excellent matchup against the Braves Kyle Wright. His 7.2 ERA and over 2 WHIP are not the only significant numbers working in the Mets favor. Wright has given up an ISO of .286 and massive wOBA of .502 against left-handed hitters. To put the icing on the cake he hasn’t been missing many bats either with just a 15.5% K rate and swinging strike percentage below 10 percent.
- Brandon Nimmo ( ISO of .270, wOBA of .425 and seven of his eight homeruns have been off right handed pitchers.)
- Dominic Smith (ISO of .324 and wOBA of .439 against righties)
- Jeff Mcneil (has a hit in 9 of his last 10 games and is was too cheap at $3,400)
Houston Astros
We must look at the obvious here which is Madison Bumgarner has been atrocious, specifically against right-handed hitters. Let’s start with he is missing significantly fewer bats as he holds a strikeout rate of 9.5% and swinging strike rate of just 7% against right-handed hitters. Now we take a deeper look at his struggles to find he has given up a humongous ISO of .402 and wOBA of .452 against right-handed hitters this season. We should also remember that this Astros stack although not as dominant is very affordable against a declining pitcher.
- George Springer (ISO of .310 and wOBA of .331 against lefties)
- Alex Bregman (ISO of .257 and wOBA of .448 against lefties)
- Yuli Gurriel (ISO of .333 and wOBA of .416 against lefties)
Tampa Bay Rays
This team is facing John Means who has given up ten homeruns in just 32 innings pitched this season. Means has been bad against both sides of the plate as ISO is around .255 and wOBA around .350 for both sides. For what is worth Means also has an ERA of nine in six home starts and he is playing at home today. I have been attacking Means all season for the evident reason of being unable to keep the ball in the yard. If you don’t want to stack these Rays hitters you can always use them as a one off with Means homerun track record.
- Randy Arozarena (ISO of .600 and wOBA of .570 against lefties)
- Hunter Renfroe (ISO of .395 and wOBA of .343 against lefties)
- Brandon Lowe (ISO of .391 and wOBA of .452 against lefties)
That will conclude this article of MLB GPP Stacks 9/19 for the Sunday eight game slate. We have another Football Sunday to go along with this MLB slate. Should have another Sunday fun day of sports, DFS, and season long fantasy leagues to keep an eye on today. Hop over in the Discord Chat rooms to join myself and all the WinDaily staff as we breakdown any lineup adjustments based upon the release of team’s lineups. Enjoy this glorious Sunday full of sports and thanks for reading my content! Goodluck!
