Catcher – Yasmani Grandal vs. Steven Brault

FanDuel: $3,500 DraftKings: $4,800

The Brewers’ catcher has a .284 ISO versus left-handed pitchers in 2019. Grandal also has a .385 wOBA against lefties. Grandal should take advantage and keep crushing righties in this one while leading your DFS lineup to the green.

Value:

Buster Posey

DraftKings: $3,000

First Base – Joc Pederson vs. Chi Chi Gonzalez

FanDuel: $4,000

Pederson has a .340 ISO and a .379 wOBA against right-handed pitching this season. And now he faces a below league average pitcher in Coors Field. If playing on DraftKings, the Chicago Cubs’ Anthony Rizzo is your play. Either option should do just fine for your DFS hopes.

Value:

Jesus Aguilar

FanDuel: $2,500 DraftKings: $3,300

Second Base – Mike Moustakas vs. Steven Brault

FanDuel: $3,800 DraftKings: $5,100

The Brewers’ Moustakas has a .315 ISO, a .393 wOBA and a 142 wRC+ versus left-handed pitching in 2019. Look for those numbers to jump up after this meeting with Brault. The lefty is allowing a .374 wOBA against right-handed batters this season. Moustakas is a great DFS option on Sunday.

Value:

Keston Hiura

FanDuel: $2,600

Tommy Edman

DraftKings: $2,300

Third Base – Justin Turner vs. Chi Chi Gonzalez

FanDuel: $3,900

The Dodgers third baseman has a .374 wOBA versus right-handed pitching in 2019. If playing on DraftKings, your preferred third base play is the Nationals’ Anthony Rendon. Both third basemen are good DFS options.

Value:

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

FanDuel: $3,000 DraftKings: $3,500

Shortstop – Trea Turner vs.Jordan Zimmermann

FanDuel: $4,400 DraftKings: $5,300

Zimmermann has a 5.20 xFIP against righties. Turner has a .238 ISO and a .356 wOBA versus right-handed pitchers in 2019. Turner should be plenty good enough for your DFS lineups.

Value:

Tommy Edman

FanDuel: $2,500

Jose Peraza

DraftKings: $3,100

Outfield – Cody Bellinger vs. Chi Chi Gonzalez

FanDuel: $5,200 DraftKings:

Bellinger has a .356 ISO and a .457 wOBA versus right-handed pitching. Look for Bellinger to produce big DFS numbers on Sunday.

Outfield – Kyle Schwarber vs. Anthony DeSclafani

FanDuel: $3,300 Draftkings: $4,200

Schwarber has a .244 ISO against right-handed pitching in 2019. He should add excellent value to your DFS entries.

Value:

Ryan Braun

FanDuel: $3,100

Bobby Bradley

FanDuel: $2,200

Stephen Piscotty

DraftKings: $3,600

Top Stacks

Cleveland Indians:

After letting us down yesterday, the Indians’ offense will look to get back in good graces today. And Cleveland should have no problem doing just that with Baltimore’s Gabriel Ynoa taking the bump. The Orioles’ right-hander has a 5.17 SIERA and a 5.54 xFIP this season. With Ynoa allowing 2.38 HR/9 this year, expect us to be much happier with Cleveland and our DFS lineups at the end of the day Sunday.

Chicago Cubs:

A flyball pitcher (41.6%) that allows a lot of hard contact (44.6%) seems like a good place to start a stack. The Reds’ Anthony DeSclafani seems to be the perfect pitcher to attack with your DFS lineups. The Reds’ starter has a 4.44 xFIP and a 4.27 SIERA this season.

Milwaukee Brewers:

The Brewers have crushed left-handed pitching all season. As an offense, Milwaukee has a .210 ISO against lefties. The Pirates’ Steven Brault should be no match for the Brewers. The Pirates’ pitcher is not missing any bats this season with a low 9.8% swinging strike rate. The Brewers should put plenty of balls in play with success on Sunday. Milwaukee is a very suitable stack for DFS purposes today.

Los Angeles Dodgers:

Any time you can get the Dodgers against a righty, you fill up your DFS lineups with Dodger Blue. Los Angles has .216 ISO and a .347 wOBA versus righties this season. The Rockies’ Chi Chi Gonzalez could be in trouble in this one.

DFS Hitting Picks 6/28-Dodgers Have a Coors Fest

Mark Paquette 5 years ago

written by Mark Paquette

This Friday slate feels weird with only 14 games on the schedule, and arguably the two most popular/famous teams in the Yankees and Red Sox, not playing as they prepare for their two game series in London. There is another Coors game on the slate (after last night’s slugfest). Another wrinkle in this slate is the lengthy game the Twins and Rays played Thursday afternoon that stretched into the evening. Their bullpens will be taxed and their opponent’s bats (Rangers and White Sox) could get a boost here. Luckily, we have the Dodgers and Rockies as they continue their 4-game entertaining series. Will another slugfest ensue tonight?

Catcher:

Austin Barnes, Dodgers at Rockies ($2,900 FD, $3,900 DK): We will have to make sure he is in the lineup tonight at Coors. But with Russell Martin the only other catcher on the roster for the Dodgers at Coors, there is a really good chance Barnes gets the call again tonight. We will stress this over and over again in this article: Senzatela, the starter for the Rockies is awful, especially at Coors. We want as many Dodger bats as we can tonight. And Barnes is a rare Dodger bat that is affordable.

Sign up NOW for WIN DAILY Premium Gold right here! Projections, weather reports, wagering info, 24/7 expert chats and more!

First Base

Joc Pederson ($4,000 FD); Max Muncy ($5,600 DK) Dodgers at Rockies: These were my picks last night for the Dodgers. And nothing has changed tonight. Lets do a dive into how bad Sentzatela has been: 33.1 innings at Coors, 40 hits, 23 earned runs (good for a 6.21 ERA), 13 walks, only 21 strikeouts and five HRs given up. Listen, these pair of Dodger bats are not affordable. But you need to have as many Dodger bats as possible. It really isn’t too complicated.

Second Base

Brian Dozier, Nationals at Tigers ($2,500 FD, $3,400 DK): A cost-saving option to continue to try to save for other big bats in Coors, Dozier is a notorious lefty masher. Even though he is not having a great year, he is still is hitting lefties well and with power. Five HRs in only 63 ABS against lefties proves that point. He also has a .349 batting average and an OPS of 1.097. Opposing starting pitcher Daniel Norris is not adverse to giving up the long ball. In 267 ABs vs right-handed batters, he has already given up 11 HRs.

Shortstop

Fernando Tatis Jr., Padres at Cardinals ($4,000 FD, $5,600 DK): A relative bargain on FD where is the fourth most expensive SS as compared to DK where he is the most costly. In either case, he may be worth it. Opposing starting pitcher Michael Wacha has given up 12 HRs in only 160 ABs to righties. And there are fewer hotter hitters, either righty of lefty, than Tatis. He has two or more hits in three of his last six games. In that stretch, he has five RBI, nine runs, two stolen bases, six walks, seven hits and a HR. This guy is simply filling up the stat sheet and batting leadoff on the road, he is guaranteed maxing out ABs.

Third Base

Justin Turner, Dodgers at Rockies ($3,900 FD, $5,000 DK): Another relative bargain on FD, this Dodger stud will likely bat third. As mentioned yesterday, he actually hits right-handers better than lefties. All we have to do is look at Senzatela’s stats above to realize what a great spot this Dodger is in. Can’t hurt to try to get more bats from this likely slugfest.

Outfielders

Alex Verdugo, Dodgers at Rockies ($3,600 FD, $4,900 DK): Lets get another Dodger batter in here. Well I am not going to stop at just one. I am going to add Kiki Hernandez ($3,500 FD, $4,600 DK) to add this list as well. Hernandez is also eligible as a Second Baseman on DK. Do I need to add details about why I like these guys? I will say, Kiki’s hitting profile is fantastic for this matchup. He has been hitting the ball in the top ten percentile in terms of exit velocity over the last month and we want as many players from this slugfest as possible. .

Jake Cave, Twins at White Sox ($2,200 FD, $3,200 DK): Again, we need some savings tonight to afford Coors bats. Twins outfielders Rosario and Kepler are battling nagging injuries and could get the day off. Make sure Cave is in the lineup against the Pale Hose right-hander Carson Fulmer but if he is in fire him up. Cave had five HRs in very limited time in the minors this season and has added one more at the major league level. He certainly has power to spare.

DFS Hitting/Monkey Knife Fight Picks- Dodgers and Rockies in Coors

Mark Paquette 5 years ago

written by Mark Paquette

It’s a strange Thursday DFS slate with 10 games, but at least there is a Coors game between the Dodgers and the Rockies! Two of the most well-known teams in MLB in the Yankees and the Red Sox are traveling (or have already arrived at this point) to London, England in preparation for a historic, two-game series in one of the most prestigious cities in the world. Temperatures are going to be hot in Coors so the ball will carry even better than normal.

First Basemen

Joc Pederson, FanDuel Only ($4,100): For whatever reason, FanDuel has Joc Pederson as a First Baseman at Coors Field as the Dodgers visit the Rockies. Well isn’t that convenient ladies and gentlemen! He will be batting leadoff for the Dodgers, and with warm temperatures at Coors, expect the ball to carry well. Obviously, he is in his correct position on DraftKings so on that site let’s go with his Dodgers teammate Max Muncy ($5,600 DK). Both players are notorious righty mashers with 20 and 11 HRs, respectively, on the season. By the way, Muncy is listed as a second basemen on FanDuel. Peter Lambert has been blasted in his first two career starts at Coors so we can expect the same in this start.

Second Basemen

Luis Arraez, Rays at Twins ($2,600 FD, $3,500 DK): In only 17 games, Arraez is hitting .436 on 17 hits in 39 ABs with three doubles, eight walks, eight runs scored, four RBIs and a home run. To be able to afford some big bats from the Dodgers and Rockies game in Coors, you are going to need some bargains. Facing a likely bullpen game, this left-handed batter from Venezuela will likely start the game as long as a right-handed opens for the Rays.

Shortstop

Garrett Hampson, Dodgers at Rockies ($2,700 FD, $3,300 DK but listed as a 2B/OF): This top-prospect was recently recalled from the minors and seems ready this time. On Wednesday, Hampson went two for four with two runs, a double and a stolen base. With Brandon Rodgers joining Trevor Story on the IL, shortstop is Hampson’s position for the foreseeable future. The only issue the Rockies face tonight is ace right-handed Walker Buehler of the Dodgers.

Third Basemen

Justin Turner, Dodgers at Rockies ($3,900 FD,$4,900 DK): Dodgers third baseman Turner is a reverse-splits guy, meaning he hits righties better than lefties even though he himself is a right-handed batter. Turner’s batting average and OPS against righties is considerably better than against lefties. Probably batting third in the order behind Pederson and Muncy, this Dodger stud will get plenty of opportunities to produce.

Outfielders

Dominic Smith, Mets at Phillies ($2,400 FD, $4,100 DK): Just pencil him in into your all-day FD lineup. Dominic is also first base eligible on DK to give you extra flexibility. There are fewer hotter bats in the league and the savings he gives you allows you to get those Coors bats you want. Smith has hit home runs in three consecutive games and reached base four times in last night’s game. With temperatures expected to be near 90 degrees for this afternoon game, expect the ball to be flying out of Citizens Bank Park.

Kyle Schwarber, Braves at Cubs ($3,200 FD, $3,600 DK): For as much power as Schwarber possesses, his price is extremely affordable. Throw in the fact that he will be playing in an afternoon game with temperatures in the 80s and against an unproven Braves starter in Bryse Wilson. His WHIP is over two in a tiny sample size, Schwarber could be in for a good game.

MLB DFS Winners and Losers: Baseball’s Newest Thor

Vincent Pensabene 6 years ago

written by Vincent Pensabene

We had a full 15-game slate for Father’s Day on Sunday, June 16. All points and values are based off DraftKings.

Winners

Trent Thornton ($5,800)

Trent Thornton had his best outing of the season last night against the Houston Astros in Minute Maid Park. He pitched 6.2 innings of scoreless ball. He gave up six hits, three walks and seven strikeouts. Thornton picked up his second victory on the season. Don’t expect to catch lightning in a bottle when he is back on the mound next start.

Thornton’s Outlook

This was the second-longest outing for Thornton. Facing off against a very dynamic offensive team, he looked calm and collected on the hill. Thornton did allow nine baserunners in his outing but did not give up a hit with a runner in scoring position. His next scheduled start is Friday night in Fenway Park against the division-rival Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox are beginning to heat up after a rough start to the season, so look to fade Thornton his next time out.

Jesse Winker ($3,600)

Jesse Winker had one of the best games as the Reds’ leadoff hitter yesterday, against the Texas Rangers, going 4-for-5 with a home run, five RBI and a run scored. He upped his season totals to .244 with 11 HR and 23 RBI. Winker is making contact at a high rate and should be able to continue hitting well.

Winker’s Outlook

Jesse Winker has been performing well at the plate recently. In his past 15 games, he is 13-for-44 with a home run, six RBI and only seven strikeouts. He has been making solid contact as a table-setter in the Reds’ lineup. The Reds face Wade Miley and the Houston Astros. Miley isn’t your prototypical shutdown starter, so expect Winker to have some production in today’s game.

Losers

J.D. Martinez ($5,400)

J.D. Martinez did not get going in the series finale against the Baltimore Orioles yesterday. He went hitless in his five at-bats, but did record a walk and struck out twice. He was the only Red Sox batter in the original lineup to not record a hit. Expect this game to just be a road bump instead of a signal of struggles.

Martinez’s Outlook

J.D. Martinez has been red hot the past week, batting .310. In those seven games, he has four home runs and six RBI. The Red Sox continue their road trip with a trip to Minnesota to face the Twins. The Twins have a 3.95 ERA, which ranks seventh in baseball. J.D. Martinez should be able to continue to provide power today.

Justin Turner ($8,000)

Justin Turner struggled last night against the Chicago Cubs, going hitless in four at-bats. He has been struggling in the recent past and does not seem to be close to breaking out of the slump. With a huge price tag attached, look to avoid Justin Turner tonight.

Turner’s Outlook

Justin Turner has been struggling for more than just last night’s game. In his previous seven games, he was 6-for-26 with one homer and RBI. His next game is against the division-rival San Francisco Giants. The Giants are struggling this season and should not provide too many problems, but be cautious about Turner’s production in the game.

Injury Updates

Giancarlo Stanton will return to the New York Yankees’ lineup on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays. That will be his first game since March 31.

The New York Mets have placed starter Noah Syndergaard on the 10-day Injured List with a right hamstring strain.

DFS Hitting Stacks for 5/30: Cleveland Clout

Wes Anderson 6 years ago

written by Wes Anderson

Here are thetop teams to stack for MLB’s May 30th main slate action:

Cleveland Indians

The White Sox’s Manny Banuelos is a pitcher that we will want to get some exposure against. The left-handed pitcher has struggled this season as evidenced by his extremely high 7.71 ERA. Banuelos has a 5.07 SIERA and a 5.02 xFIP. The Chicago starter also is serving up 2.57 HR/9, making the Indians look like an excellent stacking option for Thursday. Admittedly the Indians’ numbers against lefties will leave something to be desired here but nonetheless this is still a matchup they should take advantage of. That is mainly due to Banuelos’ lack of success against right-handed batters. He is allowing a .323/.409/.606 slash line to righty bats in 2019.

The obvious right-handed Indians are in play, of course. Carlos Santana (FanDuel: $3,600 DraftKings: $4,500), Jose Ramirez (FanDuel: $3,100 DraftKings: $3,900) and Francisco Lindor (FanDuel: $3,700 DraftKings: $4,800) will be the big names to focus on.

But some lesser known pieces maybe the real key to the Indians’ stack. Jordan Luplow (FanDuel: $3,100 DraftKings: $4,100) and Robert Perez (FanDuel: $2,500 DraftKings: $3,700) but have ISOs greater than .260 against left-handed pitching. Not only are they in position to take advantage of the matchup, but they also will provide some salary relief to your DFS lineups.

Boston Red Sox

The Yankees’J.A. Happ has struggled with the long ball this season. He is allowing 2.16HR/9, so we are going to want some the Red Sox hitters in this one.

You willwant to start with lefty killer J.D. Martinez (FanDuel: $4,300 DraftKings: $5,200).Martinez has a .500 ISO and a .512 wOBA against southpaws this season. OtherBoston bats to pick from include Xander Bogaerts (FanDuel: $3,800 DraftKings: $5,000),Michael Chavis (FanDuel: $3,600 DraftKings: $5,100), Sandy Leon (FanDuel: $2,200DraftKings: $3,100) and Christian Vazquez (FanDuel: $2,400 DraftKings: $4,100).These Red Sox batters all have .300 or better ISOs versus lefties in 2019.

Texas Rangers

The Royals’ Jakob Junis is getting hit hard this season. He is allowing a 42.2% hard contact rate. The hard contact has resulted in some serious damage done against Junis, as he has a 4.64 SIERA. Look for that damage to continue on Thursday. The Rangers have punished right-handed pitching all season. As an offense they have a .214 ISO and a .349 wOBA versus righties.

When building your Texas lineups, you want to focus on the lefties first. Junis is allowing a .361 wOBA as well as 42.9% hard contact rate to left-handed batters. So, of course you are going to start the build with Joey Gallo (FanDuel: $4,300 DraftKings: $5,600). The slugger has a .333 ISO and a .434 wOBA against right-handed pitching this season.

You will also want to get some Nomar Mazara (FanDuel: $3,500 DraftKings: $4,400) and Hunter Pence (FanDuel: $4,100 DraftKings: $5,500) in your lineups as they both are lefty batters with ISOs over .300 versus right-handed pitching.

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Dodgers’ offense is in position to be the late-night hammer that your DFS lineups need to push across the money line.

The Mets’ JasonVargas checks a lot of the boxes in terms of pitchers you like to stackagainst. First off, he has a 5.49 SIERA and a 5.79 xFIP. He also is allowingflyballs at a rate of 43.5%, owns a 49% hard contact rate and has a below leagueaverage 17% K rate. Vargas’ velocity is also low compared to the rest of theleague. His fastball has averaged 85.5 MPH in 2019.

The Dodgers’ stack, of course, begins with Cody Bellinger (FanDuel: $4,800 DraftKings: $5,800). The MVP frontrunner has crushed left-handed pitching this season with a .358 ISO and a .459 wOBA. Bellinger also owns a .377/.438/.770 slash line and a 1.209 OPS against finesse pitchers, like Vargas is.

Other Dodgers to consider in this stack are Max Muncy (FanDuel: $3,500 DraftKings: $4,700), Chris Taylor (FanDuel: $2,600 DraftKings: $3,400), Enrique Hernandez (FanDuel: $3,200 DraftKings: $3,700), Justin Turner (FanDuel: $3,400 DraftKings: $4,200) and Alex Verdugo (FanDuel: $2,800 DraftKings: $4,100). These five Dodgers’ hitters all have ISOs in the .200s versus southpaws this season.

Good luckand happy stacking!
