9/24 DFS Hitting Stacks of the Day

Red Sox at Edinson Vólquez/Ariel Jurado

The Red Sox shouldn’t have problems getting to either Vólquez, who’s having a last hurrah in the big leagues before retiring, or Jurado, who has a 5.73 ERA this season and has trouble getting Ks. You may want to skip Betts, who’s been getting rest since coming back from a foot injury, but grab shares of J.D. Martinez, Rafael Devers, Xander Bogaerts and some of the more inexpensive bats (Mitch Moreland, Brock Holt, Jackie Bradley) that should help you make salary. I think the 2-5 plus Christian Vazquez (the projected 7 hitter) might be my favorite stack among the Red Sox bats.

Houston Astros at Justin Dunn/Tommy Milone

The Astros are always worth looking to considering their 121 team wRC+ and .349 wOBA, but they face a couple mashable pitchers and you don’t have to worry about splits since they rake just about everybody. Get some shares of the red-hot George Springer (three HRs on Sunday) as well as Jose Altuve, Alex Bregman, Yuri Gurriel and Yordan Alvarez. they have the highest implied total among the teams with set lines so far.

TorontoBlue Jays at Dylan Bundy

These teams have been bashing each other’s brains in, and while I prefer the Blue Jays side of this offensive tilt, the entire game stack is in play. It’s been a GPP winner recently, so I have no qualms about rolling out the usual suspects again: Cavan Biggio, Randal Grichuk, Rowdy Tellez, and value bats like Brandon Drury and Teoscar Hernandez – especially if Lourdes Gurriel, Jr. (illness) sits for a second consecutive day.

9/24 DFS Hitting Stacks to Consider

Chicago Cubs at Mitch Keller – The Cubs are nearly out of the playoff picture thanks to the Cardinals, but for 9/24 DFS you shouldn’t consider them officially dead yet – and they’re a bunch who can still pile on the runs. The Pirates home park isn’t the best venue for stacks, so ownership should be relatively low.

Atlanta Braves at Danny Duffy – Plenty of bats to like for this potent Braves lineup facing the lefty in Kansas City, you’ll just have to leave out a couple since they’re all so good. I may be fading the Yankees in Tampa, but I’m not worried about the Braves against a hittable pitcher in the heartland.

Cleveland Indians vs. Hector Santiago – The Indians aren’t as consistent as the Braves offensively, but they have a bunch of lefty mashers with a special affinity for Santiago. The implied run total is over 5.5, which means you should have shares of the 1-5 bats along with some exposure to Franmil Reyes and Jordan Luplow. I might take a wait-and-see approach with Jose Ramirez, who’s set to be activated from the IL.

Oakland Athletics at Dillon Peters – The A’s aren’t as good against LHPs (.305 team wOBA), but it’s a viable contrarian stack to consider for 9/24 DFS. The implied total is also over 5.5 runs and seems a bit high — so tread lightly with this bunch.

9/24 DFS Hitting Catcher

Christian Vazquez, BOS at TEX

DK ($4,600) FD($3,200)

Vazquez got a day off yesterday against the Rays, but he should beback in the lineup Tuesday in Texas. He’s got 3 homers in his last seven gamesand his overall numbers in 2019 have been impressive: .273/.316/.472 with 22 HRs.Digging a little deeper, we find a .232 road ISO, with 14 of his dingers comingaway from Fenway Park.

9/24 DFS Hitting First Baseman

Carlos Santana, CLE at DET

DK (4,900) FD ($4,000)

Santana is having a career year, and I’m plugging him into most ofmy GPP builds against Hector Santiago. Hisseason slash sits at .288/.403/.529 with a 139 wRC+ and he’s destroying LHPsthis season (1.015 OPS, 162 wRC+ and .421 wOBA). There are many ways to go at1B on this slate, but Santana is my bet for a monster game.

9/24 DFS Hitting Second Baseman

Cavan Biggio, TOR at BAL

DK ($4,900) FD ($3,700)

Did you expect me to play some other than Biggio? He hit anotherbomb last night and has ben raking every time I use him in GPPs – from lastTuesday’s cycle and Thursday’s home run to helping me spike some decent cashesin last night’s Rally contests on FanDuel. He’s way too cheap on that site andhis price tag on DK should keep him from being chalk – especially with so manyhigh-priced arms.

9/24 DFS Hitting Third Baseman

Manny Machado, SD vs. LAD (3B/SS on DK)

(DK $3,700) FD($3,000)

It’s been a disappointing season for Machado, but he’d like to endit with some standout performances against his old team, the Dodgers. I lovethe matchup against LHP Rich Hill since Machado – with some really pronouncedsplits this season – hits .314/.401/.683 against southpaws. The price is rightfor Machado, and using him as a one-off or with OF Hunter Renfroe ($4,000 onDK, $3,100 on FD) – who’s another viable Padres power hitter with a 132 wRC+against LHPs – makes a lot of sense if you’re trying to find some value and buildingmultiple lineups.

9/24 DFS Hitting Shortstop

Corey Seager, LAD at SD

DK ($4,700) FD($3,800)

Seger is finally hitting his groove as we near the postseason, andnow is a great time to plug him in at SS in the 9/24 DFS main slate. He’s got a123 wRC+ against RHPs and has a .381 WOBA and .314 ISO sine the start of September.There’s no time like the present, and presently, Corey Seager is raking.

9/24 DFS Hitting Outfielders

Cody Bellinger, LOS at SD (1B/OF on DK)

DK ($4,800) FD($3,200)

Cody might just ring that bell again on Tuesday night against “BadRonald” Bolanos, who’s given up three homers in 14 innings. Bellinger’s 166wRC+ and ridiculous .314/.414/.641 slash line vs. RHPs means he’ll be in all thelineups I can afford him in, regardless of the venue and the fact he’s on the road(149 wRC+ in away games this season).

Ronald Acuna, Jr., ATL at KC

DK ($5,300) FD ($4,400)

He makes for a fine one-off if you’re not using the Braves stack, and he’s putting up obscene numbers against both LHPs and RHPs. Another interesting stat about Acuna is that he’s slashing a robust .281/.370/.510 with a 125 wRC+ at home and .279/.361/.527 with a 128 wRC+on the road. There’s not a day that I don’t consider him, even against the league’s top pitchers and regardless of the lofty price tag.

Austin Hays, BAL at TOR
DK ($3,800) FD ($2,700)

Hays had a monster night in Toronto on Monday and he’s once again in a good spot facing a lefty. The 24-year-old slugger is slashing .302/.362/.535 in the 15 games he’s played in the majors, and he’s still very inexpensive on both sites. If he’s in the Orioles lineup on Tuesday, I’ll be grabbing shares.

9/24 DFS Additional Stack Options:

C: Wilson Contreras ($4,400 DK, $3,200 FD), Sean Murphy ($4,000DK, $3,100 FD)

1B: Anthony Rizzo ($4,900 DK, $4,100 FD), Trey Mancini ($4,700 DK,$3,900 FD)

9/17 DFS Hitting Picks and Stacks: Mets Marauding Melville

jason mezrahi 5 years ago

written by jason mezrahi

We’ve got a loaded 14-game 7:05 EST main slate for MLB 9/17 DFS – one that we’ve got some high game totals for, including another big-time stack at Coors. The lineups get unstable toward the end of the year, but that just gives us more opportunities to embrace the variance and make it fun on this enormous slate.

9/17 DFS Hitting Stacks of the Day

NewYork Mets at Tim Melville (NYM at COL)

The Mets are expensive but have the highest implied total on the slate. Last night they scored just four runs in Coors but on Tuesday get to face Melville, who’s been torched in his three home starts (.516 xwOBA, 9.00 ERA, 6.31 xFIP). I’ll be applying a liberal smattering of Mets hitters in most of my lineups, with most of my exposure coming with the first five hitters: Brandon Nimmo, Jeff McNeil, Michael Conforto, Robinson Cano and Pete Alonso. Wilson Ramos is a very affordable $2,900 on FD as well, where he can be used in one of two spots.

Boston Red Sox vs. Logan Webb (BOS vs. SF)

The Sox may be missing Mookie Betts (foot) but they’re still a powerful bunch of bats in a hitter’s park. Logan Webb has been tuned up for a .400 xwOBA vs. RHP) during his short time in the Majors, and he’s not going to like the ballpark shift from Oracle. The usual suspects (Rafael Devers, Xander Bogaerts, J.D. Martinez and Andrew Benintendi) are all $5,000 or under on DK, and Mitch Moreland is just $4,200.

Toronto Blue Jays at Dylan Bundy/Chandler Shepherd

The Blue Jays are a sneaky stack in a slate with Coors Field on the docket, and they’ll be playing in Baltimore, where the homers fly out and the Orioles pitching staff has reached a new nadir in allowing the long ball. I’m stacking the 1-5 with occasional shares of Randal Grichuk ($4,300 DK) and Billy McKinney ($3,300 DK).

Cleveland Indians vs. John Schreiber/Spencer Turnbull (CLE vs.DET)

The Indians are underpriced for the matchup on this 9/17 DFS slate, whether it’s against Schreiber (the possible opener) or Turnbull, who’s really struggled this season (3-15 in 27 starts with a 4.77 ERA and 1.48 WHIP). I’m leaning toward mini-stacks considering there are so many other great matchups on this slate, but feel free to grab shares of the 1-5 hitters and get some exposure to the value bats (Franmil Reyes, Mike Freeman and Jordan Luplow, if he’s in the lineup).

9/17 DFS Hitting Stacks to Consider

Atlanta Braves at Vince Velazquez (It’s tough to fadeFreeman and Co. in a hitter’s park)

Miami Marlins at LHP Alex Young (all the righties –including my guy Starlin Castro)

Colorado Rockies vs. Marcus Stroman (The contrarian side ofCoors against a decent RHP)

9/17 DFS Hitting Catcher

J.T. Realmuto, PHI at ATL

DK ($4,600) FD ($3,900)

I’m a huge fan of Realmuto, who sports a .443 xwOBA and .227 ISO against LHPs over the past two seasons. It’s a one-off play that should command low ownership and provide a decent floor – as well as immense upside in GPPs.

9/17 DFS Hitting First Baseman

Rowdy Tellez, TOR at BAL

DK ($3,900) FD ($2,600)

Tellez has four homers in his last 11 games, crushes right-handedpitching (.453 xwOBA, .245 ISO since 2018), and bats fourth between Lourdes Gurrieland Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. Tellez is my double-dinger call of the day, and he’snot really thrown off by lefty relievers, either (.430 xwOBA against LHPs since2018).

9/17 DFS Hitting Second Baseman

Cavan Biggio, TOR at BAL

DK ($4,500) FD ($3,700)

Biggio is another Jays bat I want exposure to in Camden Yards, where he’s already got three homers in five career games and a 168 OPS+ that screams GPP play. As part of stack or simply a value bat at a reasonable price, Biggio makes a solid play for his speed and power.

9/17 DFS Hitting Third Baseman

Matt Chapman, OAK vs. KC

DK ($4,200) FD ($3,600)

Chapman and his surging power numbers (4 HRs in September so far) couldbe overlooked on this slate, and if you’re wary of spending more than $5K for J.D.Davis but still want to get some other Coors bats in, he could be a big help.All these games matter for the A’s, and Chapman (.423 xwOBA and .250 ISO vs.RHPs since 2018) is the heart and soul of their lineup along with Matt Olsonand Marcus Semien, the other two Oakland bats with 30+ homers this year.

9/17 DFS Hitting Shortstop

Francisco Lindor, CLE vs. DET

DK ($4,800) FD ($4,000)

Lindor is my favorite shortstop of this slate. He gets lotsof ABs and benefits from a circular Indians lineup that has some decent hittersat the bottom of the order – giving him some run-creating opportunities alongwith table-setting ability. His price is cheaper than Xander Bogaerts, Trevor Storyand Bo Bichette on DK (with just as much GPP upside) and he’s playable in allformats at home (where he owns a .386 wOBA and .403 xwOBA sine 2018) against theTigers.

9/17 DFS Hitting Outfielders

J.D. Martinez, BOS vs. SF

DK ($4,000) FD ($3,200)

Idiscussed the Red Sox stack up top, but if there’s one bat from Boston I’d likein this matchup, it’s J.D. His .506 xwOBA vs. RHPs since 2018 (over a hugesample of 998 plate appearances) means he can hit all types of pitching (it’s apreposterous .560 vs. LHPs) and he’s still surrounded by Bogaerts andBenintendi, who both hit RHPs well. I’m banking on a three-run homer for the RedSox OF/DH in hitter-friendly Fenway against young Logan Webb (.400 xwOBA vs. RHP).

Oscar Mercado, CLE vs. DET

DK ($4,100) FD ($3,000)

Thehome numbers for Mercado are impressive (.290/.340/.477) and his bat has beenshowing some life again (10 hits in his last 26 AB). You’re getting thetalented young OF at a discount on both sites, and he’s a great piece to havein Indians mini stacks along with Lindor and Carlos Santana.

Garrett Hampson, COL vs. NYM

DK ($3,500) FD ($3,200)

Hampson is red-hot at the plate and is dirt cheap onDK. He’s played much better since getting more regular time, starting in theRockies’ last five straight and games and going 11-for-22 over that stretch(counting Monday night). He’s easy to overlook in the lineup as the No. 7 hitterand makes plenty of sense in both cash games and GPPs.

Additional options:

C:Roberto Perez ($3,600 DK, $2,900FD), Reese McGuire ($3,900 DK, $2,800 FD)

1B: Pete Alonso ($5,600 DK, $4,300 FD), Carlos Santana($4,300 DK, $3,900 FD)

2B: Robinson Cano ($4,700 DK, $3,600 FD), Jonathan Villar($4,700 DK, $3,800 FD)

3B: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, ($3,900 DK, $2,900 FD), EugenioSuarez ($4,500 DK, $3,900 FD)

SS: Bo Bichette ($5,400 DK, $3,900 FD), Xander Bogaerts ($5,000DK, 3,800 FD)

OF: Austin Meadows ($5,600 DK, $4,400 FD), Yordan Alvarez ($5,200DK, $4,100 FD), Brandon Nimmo ($4,500 DK, $3,900 FD), Khris Davis ($3,800 DK,$3,200 FD), Michael Brantley ($4,000 DK, $3,800 FD), Matt Joyce ($4,100 DK, $2,400FD)

The King’s Hitting Stacks for 6/10: Feeling Brave

Scott Engel 5 years ago

written by Scott Engel

Joe Musgrove is better on the road (3.29 ERA), but you haveto like a Braves stack against him when you consider his overall mark is 4.44and he has allowed four or more earned runs in five of his past seven starts.Freddie Freeman ($5400 on DraftKings) is hitting .313 with 12 homers and 29 RBIvs. RHPs. Dansby Swanson (4700) has 10 homers and 31 RBI vs, righties. NickMarkakis (3600) is at .287 with 30 runs scored vs. righties. Ronald Acuna Jr. (4900)has nine HRs, 28 RBI and 29 runs scored vs. RHPs. Austin Riley rakes at homeand is worth the 5000. Brian McCann can save salary at 3500 along with Markakisif he starts. Colin Moran (4600), Gregory Polanco (4500) and Corey Dickerson (3900)can also build out a Pittsburgh stack against Kevin Gausman, whose last name isaptly closer to “gas can” than any other Major Leaguer.

Tampa Bay will start an early assault on Tanner Anderson andlikely drive him from the game quickly. Oakland has a 4.33 bullpen ERA. AustinMeadows is hitting .344 with six HRs, 20 RBI and four steals in home games.Yandys Diaz is hitting .313 with six homers and 13 RBI at the Trop. Ji-Man Choiis hitting .298 with 11 RBI and 13 runs scored and Avisail Garcia is hitting,296 with seven HRs and 16 RBI at home.

Taylor Clarke has a 4,67 road ERA, so load up on some Phillies.Jean Segura is hitting .319 with 24 runs scored in home games. J.T. Realmuto isat .299 with five homers and 19 RBI at Citizens Bank Park. Scott Kingery is at.282 with eight RBI and seven runs scored at CBP. You should give Jay Bruce alook as well.

The Rockies home stack is in play at home against YuDarvish, but the lefties will be costly. Charlie Blackmon is 5800, David Dahlis 5300 and Daniel Murphy may not be worth it at 5000. Ryan McMahon (4200) andTony Wolters (3600) can help you save if they are in the lineup. VictorCaratini (4200) and Carlos Gonzalez (3000) can help you save cash with a Cubs stack.

The King’s Short Slate Stacks for 6/3 – Injured Astros Still Interesting

Scott Engel 5 years ago

written by Scott Engel

If the Houston lineup was not depleted by injuries, theywould be the obvious stack against Wade LeBlanc. But if you can also considerthe Dodgers lineup against Robbie Ray. The Diamondbacks starter has not beenterrible this season, and he is 2-0 with a 3.32 ERA at home. But the Dodgersare the best lineup on the slate tonight and they are second-best in the leagueagainst LHPs with 99 runs scored.

Don’t worry about platoon splits with Alex Verdugo at $3900 onDraftKings as he is hitting .354 with six RBI and seven runs scored vs. lefties.Consider spending up for Cody Bellinger at 5800, as he is hitting .333 withseven homers, 20 RBI and 15 runs scored vs. lefties. Kike Hernandez (3900) has15 RBI and 12 runs scored vs. lefties. You can also use catcher Will Smith tosave some salary at a cool 2700.

Of course, you can also opt to attack LeBlanc instead sinceRay is clearly the better pitcher. LeBlanc has an 8.31 home ERA and has allowedsix of eight home runs in Seattle so far, where he has four of his six starts.Derek Fisher (4,000) already has five hits in nine ABs vs. lefties since he wasrecently called up so go lefty on lefty there. Jake Marisnick (4,100) ishitting .463 with nine runs scored vs. LHPs but he is likely to hit lower inthe lineup. Josh Reddick (3,900) is at .375 vs. lefties and Michael Brantley (4,600)is at .333 with 11 RBI against them, and both can be used even though they areLHBs. Alex Bregman is at 4,900.

The King’s DFS Main Slate Stacks for 5/27: Royalty

Scott Engel 5 years ago

written by Scott Engel

Here are my four favorite stacks for the early main slate today.

Washington: Jose Urena has a 5.08 road ERA with a .309 BAA. You can get good platoon advantages against him with Adam Eaton and Matt Adams, as both are $4100 on DraftKings. I will also be willing to spend the 55400 for Juan Soto.

Kansas City: The term “gas can” is all the rage in DFS vernacular right now, and no one represents it better than Nova, with his 16.36 home ERA and .436 BAA, He has been brutal against hitters from both sides. Alex Gordon (5000) and Adalberto Mondesi (5,700) are my favorites here, while I am also strongly considering Whit Merrifield (5,300) , Hunter Dozier (4,900) and Jorge Soler (4,200), plus Nicky Lopez (3,600) at the top of the lineup. My preferred way to go would be with Gordon and Mondesi to start with Dozier and Lopez providing some salary relief. But get exposure to all of these guys with multiple lineups.

Cincinnati: Nick Kingham has a 8.76 ERA and lefties have all four HRs against him. So Joey Votto will make a rare appearance in my DFS lineups for just 3700 and I will lock Jesse Winker (4000) in. Derek Dietrich (4900) will surely be good for some pop here, and I will also get pitcher Luis Castillo (10,700) in there for a rebound start.

Oakland: Trevor Cahill has a 6.81 ERA overall, and it is 8.71 in day games. Lefties have been particularly hard on Cahill, so Matt Olson is a definite play, and Jurickson Profar does his best work against LHPs. If Stephen Piscotty is back in the lineup, he is a must-play, as he has been crushing LHPs,, All three of these guys are 4000 and under, making this a very price friendly stack.

DFS Stacks for 5/24: Same Old Story

Jared Contestabile 5 years ago

written by Jared Contestabile

1.) Colorado Rockies

We all know the story here, a bad lefty going into Coors is a recipe for disaster. Nolan Arenado and Trevor Story are my main focus here and I’ll gladly pair them with Brendan Rodgers and Ian Desmond. Arenado is batting .435 with a 50% hard hit rate vs. lefties at Coors. That just screams lock of the slate to me. Even if they don’t smack around John Means too much, this bullpen is dreadful. Lock and load the Rockies.

2.) Minnesota Twins

I’m going back to the team that won me all the money on Tuesday night, the Twins. They get Reynaldo Lopez coming into town and he is a gas can. My main focus here would be the lefties, as they are batting .303 against him and have a 34.8% hard hit rate. I LOVE Jorge Polanco, Eddie Rosario, Max Kepler, Luis Arraez and Marwin Gonzalez. All of these guys could poke one out of the park here. Although Lopez hasn’t given up a homer on the road this season, I have a strong gut feeling Rosario, and Polanco both knock one over the wall in this one. This is my favorite tournament pivot stack off the Rockies.

3.) Milwaukee Brewers

Jerad Eickhoff is having a pretty solid start too this year, but he struggles against left handed bats. He is giving up a ton of fly balls (71.9%) and a hard hit rate of 45.7%. I want Christian Yelich, Mike Moustakas, Yasmani Grandal, Eric Thames and will round it out with the right handed bat of Lorenzo Cain. If Yelich misses the game I don’t mind Ben Gamel. I think this stack goes very, very under-owned.

4.) St Louis Cardinals

Mike Foltynewicz has been awful to start the season and I don’t see it getting better for him in this one. The Cardinals are fresh off a 10-run game and Folty is going to be in major trouble here. I love Marcell Ozuna, Paul Goldschmidt, Jose Martinez, Matt Carpenter and Paul DeJong. Folty is pretty reverse split thus far this season, so I’ll prioritize the righties.

The King’s Royal DFS Tips for 5/20 – Stacks for Cash Begin vs. Cashner

Bradley Cunningham 5 years ago

written by Bradley Cunningham

Yankees: Andrew Cashner has a 4.10 ERA but his xFIP is 4.61and he will progress closer to that number tonight. Gleyber Torres ($4800 onDraftKings) is hitting .343 with 13 RBI and 10 R in road games. D.J. LeMahieu ($4200)is hitting .328 with 10 RBI and 12 R on the road. Clint Frazier is at .297 withthree homers and 10 RBI on the road and I like him for $4100 even if he islower in the lineup. Kendrys Morales can be a good price saver at $3400. Alsoconsider Aaron Hicks at $4200.

Rangers: Mike Leake is always not as surefire bet to stackagainst because he will occasionally deliver gems when you are not expectingthem. But you have to take the shot here because of the home park and thebetter likelihood that Leake will struggle. Willie Calhoun ($4500) is hitting .500 againstRHPs so far, with two homers and seven RBI in 20 ABs. Shin-Soo Choo ($4900) isat .315 with seven HR and 19 RBI vs. righties. Joey Gallo has 10 HRs, 21 RBIand 27 BB vs. RHPs and may be the essential play of the night against a pitcherthat traditionally is not big on the Ks. I’ll spend the $5700. Nomar Mazara($4100) and Asdrubal Cabrera ($3800) can ease some salary pressure here. I alsolike Hunter Pence ($5300) here and may use him if I employ multiple lineups.

Braves: Andrew Suarez had a 6.33 ERA in Triple-A thisseason, and is a prime candidate to get ripped even in a pitcher’s park. I willstart off with Ronald Acuna Jr. at $4600, happily take Josh Donaldson at$4,300, and do the same with Austin Riley at $4,000. I’ll even pop in Dansby Swansonfor the same price as Riley.

Nationals: You have to consider them against Drew Gagnon ina spot start, as the Mets filler option likely won’t last for long as thiscould turn into an ugly bullpen game at New York. Victor Robles ($4100) ishitting ,297 with 10 RBI and 16 runs scored in road games. Adam Eaton is just$3700 and has three steals and 13 runs scored on the road. Also consider JuanSoto at $4200 and spend the $5100 for Anthony Rendon as you can go with him againstany iffy or unproven pitcher(s).

NOTE: The White Sox have yet to announce their Mondaystarter, but no matter when they do, the Astros will be the obvious chalkystack of the night.

Stacking against Wade Miley does not always work out as some hope, but I will at least get a few Boston bats in my lineups today. J.D. Martinez has crushed lefties with a .424 average, six home runs and 11 RBI. Xander Bogaerts is hitting .323 with three homers and seven RBI vs. LHPs. I will spend the $5100 and $4500 on DraftKings.

It will be a bullpen game for the Yankees, opening with ChadGreen, who has struggled mightily overall this year. I will definitely go withBrandon Lowe for $4900 and save some money with Ji-Man Choi at $3900 with theshort RF porch at Yankee Stadium always being inviting.

I will definitely use some Oakland hitters today againstGregory Soto and the Tigers. Khris Davis has seven home runs and 17 RBI in roadgames. Josh Phegley is hitting .367 with 23 RBI on the road, and I will go withhim even if he hits ninth. Marcus Semien has 12 RBI and 12 runs scored on theroad. Davis fits nicely at $4,500 and Semien and Phegley are $4,100.

Let’s attempt to stack Mets again as they try to avoid an embarrassingsweep at Miami and possibly keep Mickey Callaway employed for one more day. Youwill have to pay $5600 for Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil may not be widely rosteredat $4500, but they are worth using against Sandy Alcantara. Robinson Cano needsto get the media off his back and is just $3700, as is Brandon Nimmo. If ToddFrazier gets in the lineup, he has started to show better form recently and isalso $3700.

Milwaukee is my second favorite stack of the day against theerratic Mike Foltynewicz. Christian Yelich is a big spend at $5800 but well worth it, andI will get Mike Moustakas in there as well at $4600. If Yasmani Grandal is inthe lineup he is $4200 and Keston Hiura is $3400. Check the final Brewerslineup card to see how you can save some money and still run the Milwaukeestack, leading with Yelich. If playing in the earlier games, use the Brewersstack first.

Give me a few White Sox against Trent Thornton. All of the potentialTop 5 in the lineup are in play: Leury Garcia, Tim Anderson, Jose Abreu, YoanMoncada and James McCann if he is in there. If using multiple lineups throw aCWS stack out there. Only Moncada is over $5,000.

It is essential to have at least a Cardinal or two againstDrew Smyly and his 6.85 ERA. Jose Martinez ($4,100) is hitting .417 with sevenRBI and six runs scored in 24 ABs vs, LHPs. Paul DeJong ($4,800) is hitting.333 with seven runs scored in the same amount of ABs vs. lefties.

Drew Pomeranz has a 5.93 ERA and will have a difficult timeat Arizona. Nick Ahmed is hitting .375 with eight RBI and 11 runs scored vs.LHPs and is $3700. Ketel Marte ($5,000) is hitting .302 with five homers and 14RBI vs. lefties.

I will not hesitate to be daring with a K.C. stack againstTyler Skaggs. After the upcoming team I will mention, and the Brewers and Mets,they are my No. 4 overall stack of the day. I definitely want Hunter Dozier at$4100, Whit Merrifield is a good fit at $4500, Aldaberto Mondesi is worth the$4800 and I will take a crack on Jorge Soler at $3800.

The Twins are my favorite overall stack of the day againstYusei Kikuchi, who I do not trust to keep up his recent respectable run ofoutings. Byron Buxton ($4,100) may be low in the lineup, but he is hitting .400vs. lefties. C.J. Cron ($4,200) is a must start at .393 with five homers andnine RBI vs. LHPs. Marwin Gonzalez ($3,400) has started to reappear lately and is hitting.313 vs. lefties. Eddie Rosario ($4,500) is at a .300 clip vs. LHPs. Check thefinal lineup card and consider those names for sure, and also keep in mind WilliansAstudillo is just $3,500. There are some definite friendly prices among theMinnesota options.

The King’s Royal DFS Tips for 5/19 – Hitting and Stacks

Mark Paquette 5 years ago

written by Mark Paquette

Stacking against Wade Miley does not always work out as somehope, but I will at least get a few Boston bats in my lineups today. J.D.Martinez has crushed lefties with a .424 average, six home runs and 11 RBI. XanderBogaerts is hitting .323 with three homers and seven RBI vs. LHPs. I will spendthe $5100 and $4500 on DraftKings.
