MLB Picks
Jonathan India – .5 Runs + RBI’s – Over
I love the matchup for the Reds today. Through three seasons, Kyle Wright has really struggled at the Major League level. Last season in a brief stint he pitched to a 9.95 ERA and an xFIP over 8. He’s one of the Braves’ biggest weaknesses this season and when he’s on the mound, there’s a strong chance they’ll lose. I plan on using the Reds tonight in DFS and on PrizePicks. With India leading off, he’ll set the table and score at least a run tonight, maybe 2. I’m going with the Over on this number.
Joey Votto – 7.5 Fantasy Score – Over
As I noted above, I’m a big fan of the Reds tonight. You won’t hear that from me often, so you know how good of a spot they are in tonight. Wright is a sinkerball pitcher and that fits right into Votto’s wheelhouse. Over the last few seasons, Votto has a .292 ISO against right-handed sinkers and a .485 wOBA. I wouldn’t be surprised if Votto takes Wright deep tonight. I like the Over here.
Wander Franco – 7.5 Fantasy Score – Over
For those that followed me last season, I have an affinity for stacking against Jordan Lyles. He’s an extreme flyball pitcher and doesn’t miss many bats. Last season he gave up a career-high 38 homers. Anytime he’s on the mound, the opposing team has a great chance of taking him deep. I love the Over here on Franco today. This kid has power and should get multiple hits today vs. a bad pitcher and even worse bullpen.
Tyler O’Neill – 8.5 Hitter Score – Over
In DFS today, stacking the Cardinals is a priority for me. They get to take on a pitcher in Mitch Keller who was pretty bad last season. Keller had a SIERA pushing 5 last season and also missed few bats. Hitters had an 82% contact right. With O’Neill today, we should get someone who has the potential to take Keller deep. He’s a core to my stack today because of his amazing matchup. I will also heavily use him on PrizePicks and side with the Over here.
MLB Summary
We have a full slate of games today and plenty of hitters in great spots. I laid out my favorites and feel great about the spots they are in.
Whether it’s for PrizePicks or DFS, make sure you’re reading all of our great MLB content.
Good luck and hope to see some green bars tonight!
