Welcome to the Thursday edition of Aces and Bases.  Today we have a nice sized 8 game main slate of MLB DFS on Fanduel to navigate through. 

We are back to a somewhat underwhelming pitching slate.  The top pitcher on tonight’s slate is a bit overpriced for my liking but I do think we have some other pitchers we can use to exploit some weaker offenses.  The goal today will be to bring you 3 pitchers and 3 offenses that will help you get to the top of the leader boards.

Let’s dig in to today’s slates!

MLB DFS: The Aces

While Ohtani is very playable on DK tonight, on FD he’s just way too expensive.  I love the match-up, but $11k for someone that almost never goes past 6 innings is just too steep for me.

Marcus Stroman ($9.9k) vs. Chicago Cubs – I should start with saying that $9.9k for Stroman is about $1k more than I’d like to spend on him.  That said, the match-up is very good and he’s been flashing some more K upside recently. 

Between Walker and Degrom the Cubs struck out 20 times over the last 2 days to Mets starters.  We know we have a team here that has a strong tendency to whiff.  On the year they’re striking out nearly 26% of the time to righties.  That pretty much aligns with Stroman’s K rate over the past 30 days, 26%.  This is a great spot for Stroman to continue a great run he’s had over the past couple of weeks.

Brandon Woodruff ($10.8k) vs. Colorado Rockies – I don’t often recommend a pitcher in Coors but with limited options on the mound tonight, we have to bring Woodruff into the convo.  This is the cheapest that Woodruff has been since around this time last month.  With his elite K rate of more than 31% on the year we’re getting a top pitcher who will most likely go a bit under owned due to the environment. 

What has me feeling a little more comfortable with this pick tonight is the fact that Woodruff has really been limiting hard contact over the past 30 days.  He’s actually been giving up more soft contact than hard.  If we add in that plus his strike out ability, he should be able to neutralize the Coors effect.  Not a safe pick by any means due to the environment, but we’re limited tonight.

Joe Musgrove ($8.5k) vs. Cincinnati Reds – The Reds away from GAB are a very different team.  All of their power metrics take a nosedive.  Their OPS drops from .829 to .684, which is mostly driven by a drop in their slugging % from .480 to .379. 

Peralta showed yesterday that the Reds can strike out when up against a strong right handed pitcher.  While I wouldn’t put Musgrove in the same category as Peralta in terms of K’s, he has shown over course of the year that he can strike out batters with the best of them.  He’s had 4 games of 10 or more strikeouts this year.  Over the past 30 day he has 35% K rate.  The K’s are there for him tonight.  At only $8.5k there’s a chance for a really strong return on our investment.  

MLB DFS: The Bats

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Michael King – This is going to be a tough night for King.  He’s facing a team that has just absolutely destroyed right handed pitching this season.  Blue Jays have a .193 ISO vs. righties and an OPS of .785. 

In looking at pitch data, the match-up just gets worse for him as the Blue Jays hit the sinker hard.  Biggio ($3.4k)Guerrero ($4.4k)Bichette ($4.2k)Gurriel ($2.5k), and Semien ($3.8k) all have slugging %’s greater than .500 against the pitch this year. 

We’ve seen the Blue Jays put up big numbers this year, tonight is a chance for them to do it again.  With pitching being on the cheaper side, this expensive stack doesn’t scare me too much.  Especially if you add in Gurriel.

Atlanta Braves vs. John Gant – Braves vs. lefties this year, not so much.  Braves vs. righties, let’s roll!  Of the teams playing tonight, only the Blue Jays have a higher ISO against the handedness of the pitcher they’re going against.  Braves have an ISO of .187 against righties this year and an OPS Of .739.  These are two key metrics I like to look at when looking for stacks as they show power and the ability to get on base. 

With Gant’s lean towards throwing sinkers, I’m going to focus on the guys here that have done extremely well against the sinker this year.  Acuna ($4.5k)Riley ($3.1k), and Swanson ($2.7k) all have slugging %’s of .480 or higher.  Both Acuna and Swanson have hard hit rates over 50% to this pitch.  Braves are in a great spot tonight to put up a healthy amount of runs.

Tampa Bay Rays vs. Justin Dunn – Dunn gets the daunting task on taking on the Rays tonight.  It’s been an up and down campaign for Dunn this year.  He’s shown the flashes at times that made him a top pick of the Mets a few years ago.  But he’s also had a ton of down spots and that’s why we’re attacking him today. 

He’s giving up a ton of hard contact to lefties this year.  Lefties have a 47% hard hit rate.  There’s a near 38% difference between his hard and soft contact to lefties.  My focus will be on the usual suspects here.  Lowe ($2.8k)Meadows ($3.6k), and Choi ($3.1k) all have strong numbers against Dunn’s pitch profile.  If you want really cheap exposure here, Kiermaier ($2.2k) also profiles really well in this spot.  

MLB DFS: The Wrap Up

With no true aces tonight outside of an overpriced Ohtani, we have some solid pitchers in price ranges that will allow us to get some of the higher priced bats.  This has the makings of a high offense type of night.    

Good luck and hope to see you in the green tonight!

Welcome to the Sunday Funday edition of Aces and Bases.  Today we have a nice sized 11 game main slate of MLB DFS on Fanduel to navigate through. 

Pitching today is far from what we call safe.  We have a $12k Shane Bieber who is way over priced IMO.  Today will be more about offense than it is pitching but with pitching, we’ll need to pick someone what won’t destroy our day.  

Let’s dig in to today’s slates!

MLB DFS: The Aces

Carlos Rodon ($10.5k) vs. Detroit Tigers – Over the past 30 days Rodon has a 37% K rate.  That’s the top number on the slate.  In DFS, in order to maximize our points we need to have someone that strikes out batters at a high clip.  We get that in Rodon. 

Yes, the Tigers have been better than they were at the start of the season. They are still striking out at a 29% clip to lefties.  If we drill down to Rodon’s top secondary pitch, we see he throws his slider quite a bit.  Outside of Grossman, the whiff rates for the projected lineup for the Tigers are all over 30%.  If Rodon’s slider is on today, he should have a dominant outing.  He’s going to be my top guy today.

Framber Valdez ($10.6K) vs. Minnesota Twins –   Valdez only has 3 starts to the year, but in his last 2 he has been absolutely dominant.  Both were against a Red Sox team that normally does well against lefties.  In those games he struck out 10 and 8 respectively.  I fear the Red Sox lineup a whole lot more than I do the Twins, especially with the Twins without some of their bigger right handed bats. 

If we look Valdez’s pitch mix, he is mostly a sinker ball pitcher.  Cruz has an ISO of .094 to this pitch from lefties.  Surprisingly the guy with highest ISO to this pitch over the past few years is Sano with a .586.  But we know with Sano in the lineup we can count on at least 1 strikeout per game, most of the time at least 2.  I like Valdez a lot in this match-up.  He’s my number 2 guy if I decide to fade Rodon.

Bruce Zimmermann ($7.9k) vs. Tampa Bay Rays – Brian may never talk to me again after this pic.  However,  Zimmermann has been lights out over the past 30 days, minus one bad outing against the Nationals.  In just his last 3 outings he’s K’d 6 against the lefty smashing White Sox, 7 against the Twins we just referenced, and 7 against the Mets. 

We know the Rays have a high K rate against lefties.  On the year it’s almost 29%.  While guys like Arozarena, Margot, and Brosseau can do some possible damage to Zimmermann, we get to neutralize guys like Lowe and Meadows.  Speaking of Aroz, he has a 41% whiff against Zimmerann’s top secondary pitch to righties, the changeup.  There’s upside in this pick.  It’s a high risk/high reward type of pick.  

I’m fading Bieber today.  I just can’t stomach paying $12k for a pitcher who over his last 7 starts has only 1 double digit K game.  If I’m paying $12k for a pitcher, there needs to be a longer track record of double digit K’s.  

MLB DFS: The Bats

Milwaukee Brewers vs. Will Crowe – I’m going to keep playing the cheap lefty Brewers against weak right handed pitching until FD raises their prices.  Daniel Vogelbach ($2.6k) and Omar Narvaez ($2.2k) continue to be too cheap for their recent production + match-up. 

All lefties are in play against Crowe.  On the year Crowe is giving up a 42% fly ball rate and a 42% hard hit rate to lefties.  His xFIP over the past 30 days is a whopping 5.94.  He’s been really bad.  There’s no reason to shy away from the righties in this match-up either as his ISO to righties this season is .244. 

Brewers are my top stack today as they get to face a pitcher who is really struggling at the major league level.  With the Pirates bullpen getting heavily taxed yesterday, my hope is that they let Crowe go a little longer than he normally would. 

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Martin Perez – This is going to be a tough day for Perez.  Perez has been well known throughout his career for being a ground ball pitcher, with most years being over 50% ground balls.  Over the last 2 years we’ve seen that drop down to the 40% range.  So he’s giving up way more fly balls than he used to. 

Blue Jays are an absolute worst case scenario for him today.  If we drill in to pitch data, we see that his main pitch to righties is his cutter.  Semien ($3.3k)Bichette ($3.6k)Vlad ($4.3k), and Hernandez ($2.8k) all do really well against his pitch.  If you want to get cheap on this stack, you can even go Grichuk ($2.5k) and Gurriel ($2.1k) who also crush this pitch.  

Houston Astros vs. Michael Pineda – Up until last night the Astros offense had been rolling.  Hopefully that will take some people off of them today because they have a shot at putting up a big number today. 

Pineda is getting hit harder this year than at any point in his career.  His career hard hit % is sitting at 36%, but this year he’s over 43%.  Guys are teeing off on him now. 

I won’t tell you to avoid the big 3 of Altuve ($4.1k)Bregman ($3.8k), and Correa ($3.9k).  My focus on the Astros today will be their lefties as Pineda’s fly ball rates balloons from 31% against righties to almost 50% to lefties.  Guys like Alvarez ($3.6k) and Tucker ($3.3k) are in prime position to do some serious damage today. 

The other offenses I like today are the Giants lefties vs. Joe Ross and Reds vs. Antonio Senzatela.  Also, don’t sleep on the power hitters from Miami.  Smyly is giving up a ton of hard contact to both righties and lefties.  If you’re looking for cheap one off players to compliment your main stacks, Miami is where you should look. 

MLB DFS: The Wrap Up

All pitchers today have some risk or are way overpriced.  Rodon will be my top guy today but Valdez is a very a close second.  There are a ton of great hitting spots today.  I honestly could have listed 7-8 different stacks that should do well today.    

Good luck and hope to see you in the green!

Welcome to the Thursday edition of Aces and Bases.  Today we have 2 slates of MLB DFS to navigate through on Fanduel.  An early 4 game slate and a main 6 game slate.

For today I’m going to do an overview of the early slate and then provide the normal 3 aces and 3 bats for the main slate.  Pitching is somewhat underwhelming on both slates today.  We do however have some great hitting environments, especially on the main slate.

Let’s dig in to today’s slates!

MLB DFS: The Early Slate

My lean here with pitching is Zach Wheeler ($11.5k) vs. Atlanta Braves.  Wheeler has been dominant this year.  An argument could be made that he’s been one of the top pitchers in the game this season.  Over the past 30 days he has a near 38% K rate and a .216 xFIP. 

The match-up is a bit daunting as he’s facing a strong Braves lineup.  Braves can be had though as evidenced by Eflin’s 7 K performance last night.  If Eflin can do it, so can Wheeler. 

The other pitcher I’m considering here is Julio Urias ($10.8K) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates.  Pirates are a mess and aren’t doing much against lefties this year with an ISO of .125.  While they don’t K as much as I’d like, Urias still has a 30% K rate over the past 30 days and I think he’ll still get some K’s in this matchup.  

For bats my top stack outside of the chalk Dodgers will be the Milwaukee Brewers.  I like attacking Castillo when I can.  I think this is a spot we can exploit.  Castillo is giving up a ton of base runners this year and some power.  My focus here will be the lefties.  Daniel Vogelbach ($2.4k), Christian Yelich ($4k), and Omar Narvaez ($2.5k) all match-up well to Castillo’s pitch mix. 

I’m also looking to the Detroit Tigers vs. Justus Sheffield.  Sheffield on the year has a 5.29 xFIP.  That’s bad.  While he does give up a lot of ground balls, he also gives up a ton of hard contact, especially to righties.  I hope Eric Haase ($3k) is back in the lineup today because he matches up really well as he has crushed sinkers this year.  Jonathan Schoop ($3k) will also be a main target here.  

MLB DFS: The Main Slate Aces

Max Scherzer ($11k) vs. San Francisco Giants – I should preface this with there’s a ton of weather concern in this game.  If it plays without any concerns Mad Max will be my top arm. 

On the year Scherzer has a 36% K rate and a 3.25 xFIP.  His K rate is the top on the slate.  While the Giants offense has been pretty good of late, they are still striking out at a near 27% clip vs. righties on the year.  Scherzer is the clear cut favorite on the night.  

Trevor Rogers ($10.1k) vs. Colorado Rockies – Rogers has come back down to a earth bit over the past 30 days.  On the year, his K rate his 30%.  If we dial that back to the past 30 days it’s hovering around 25%.  So there’s been a bit of regression with his strikeouts.  He’s had some tough match-ups in there though so I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt. 

Today he gets to face off against a Rockies team that struggles away from home.  I like the chances of Rogers returning to his early season form and rebounding with a 50 burger tonight.

Mike Minor ($8.2k) vs. Oakland Athletics – My builds will be tailored around the first two guys I mentioned.  I am however a bit intrigued by Minor.  Outside of his outing vs. the Twins, Minor has been pretty good over the past 30 days. 

Since early May, Minor has a 3.56 xFIP and a 29% K rate.  Those marks plus just a 29% hard hit rate have enabled him to put together a string of really solid starts.  While I don’t normally like to target pitchers against the A’s, I do think this is a good match-up for Minor. 

His main secondary pitch is his slider.  If we look at the projected lineup for the A’s tonight, they all have whiff rates over 20% with many of them being over 30%.  Not a safe pick, but if you have a strong risk appetite Minor may be your guy tonight.

MLB DFS: The Main Slate Bats

New York Yankees vs. J.A. Happ – Happ is one of my favorite punching bags.  Yes, we’ve seen the Yankees struggle at times vs. lefties.  Matz dominated them just a couple of weeks ago. 

Tonight will be a different story.  Happ is just a gas can at this point in his career.  He has a 5.83 xFIP, a 47% FB rate, and a near 38% hard hit rate on the year.  He’s giving up big numbers consistently.  In 4 of his last 5 outings he’s given up 9 ER, 6 ER, 4 ER, and 5 ER. 

With the Yankees tonight we need to focus on the right side of the plate.  Happ is giving up far worse numbers to righties than lefties.  While this season has been a struggle for the Yankees against lefties, if we look at a larger body of work we can see that guys like Giancarlo Stanton ($3.6k)Aaron Judge ($4.3k)Gleyber Torres ($3.4k), and Gary Sanchez ($2.7k) all have had serious power numbers vs. lefties. They’ll be my targets tonight.

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Dallas Keuchel – Yes, Keuchel is an extreme groundball pitcher.  To righties it’s at 61%.  That’s a whole lot of groundballs.  That said, he’s also someone that is susceptible to the long ball.  He’s given up 6 in his last 27 innings of work. 

The Blue Jays have a ton of guys that do well against left handed sinkers.  Guerrero ($4.4k) and Hernandez ($3k) both have ISO’s over .250 in a decent sized sample.  Bichette ($3.5k) is another guy that has had success against Keuchel’s pitch mix.  While the Yankees are my favorite stack, the Blue Jays aren’t far behind.   

Miami Marlins vs. Chi Chi Gonzalez – Another one of my favorite punching bags is our dear old friend Chi Chi.  Gonzalez is someone that is going to meet up with regression. 

Over his last 30 days Gonzalez has just a 3.2 ERA.  Not bad right?  Well his xFIP is 4.86.  He’s skating by with some luck.  He’s giving up a ton of contact with just a 5% whiff rate and a 41% hard hit rate.  At some point, those hard hit balls are going to fall and the damage is going to happen. 

While the Marlins lineup is nothing to get overly worried about, they do have some guys that have some pop and with Gonzales not missing many bats I’m not as worried about their high strikeouts. Chisholm ($3.3k)Marte ($4.2k)Aguilar ($3.6k), and Dickerson ($2.4k) are all fine targets here as Gonzalez is bad vs. both lefties and righties.

MLB DFS: The Main Slate Wrapup

Pitching tonight will be centered around the likes of Rogers and Scherzer.  With the Washington game at risk w/ weather, Rogers may be heavily owned so going to someone like Minor may be needed tonight.  Yankees will be chalk but the match-up is just so good.  It may leave the Blue Jays under-owned in a very good match-up. 

Good luck today and tonight and hope to see you in the green!

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of Aces and Bases.  Today we have a big 12 game main slate on Fanduel. 

While we have one true ace, there are a bunch of really solid options that I like that are in good matchups.  We also have a Coor’s game that may be impacted by weather again.  

With that being said, let’s dig in to today’s slates!

MLB DFS: The Aces

Robbie Ray ($8.3k) vs. Atlanta Braves – This is purely a GPP play.  Braves always have potential to put up a big number with some of the bats in that lineup.  However, against lefties this  year they have been brutal.  They have a high K rate over 27%.  What’s more concerning is their power numbers.  They have just a .557 OPS and a .129 ISO.  We’re more than a month into the season at this point.  Targeting lefties against this lineup may be a thing this year.  It’s surprising. 

Ray has seen a resurgence this season.  In his last 3 starts he’s gotten 40, 39, and 40 FD points.  At his price point, that’s damn good.  His price is starting to creep up based on his recent production but it’s still in a manageable zone.  So is this resurgence real?  Or is it a façade? 

Ray is relying more on his fastball this year than he has in years past.  He’s throwing it over 60% of the time compared to a career average of 50%.  Ray’s biggest battle in his career has been his control. 

Throwing the FB more has given him much better control.  He’s getting first pitch strikes 65% of the time vs. 58% for his career.  This has all really helped with his success this year.  It’s the Braves and this match-up could go south really quick, but I’m a big fan of Ray for GPP’s tonight. 

Freddy Peralta ($8.6k) vs. St. Louis Cardinals – Cardinals have a pretty potent lineup.  They have big bats in Arenado and Goldy.  But if they have a weakness, it’s against righties.  While their K rate is average at nearly 24%, they have a below average OPS and wOBA to righties.  Peralta showed last week that even if he gives up a few big hits, he still has the ability bring it back with his elite K rate of 40.8%. 

Peralta is relying a lot more on his slider this year, throwing it 35% of the time.  Some of the bigger bats in this line up (Goldy, Molina, and Bader) have whiff rates north of 37% to this pitch this year. 

Really like Peralta’s chances of bouncing back tonight after a sub-par outing against the Phillies last week.  Peralta gave up 5 ER early last week against the Phils but still managed to K 8 and get you 21 FD points. He’s someone that even if he’s struggling a bit can still put up a respectable number.

Walker Buehler ($10.8k) vs. Seattle Mariners – Stud Mariners prospect Jared Kelenic is expected to be called up Thursday.  So we have a few more days of picking on the Mariners before they finally get some pop in their lineup.

First, let’s take a look at what the Mariners are doing this year vs. righties.  They own a 25.4% K rate, a sub .300 wOBA, and a .665 OPS. They are a very attackable team when righties are on the mound. 

While his K rate is considerably lower than it has been over the past couple of years, Buehler still sports a very respectable 27% K rate this year.  A lot of this has to do with his first three starts where he only K’d 4 in each.  Over his past 3 starts, he’s had 9, 10, and 8 K’s.  Very encouraging trend.  Outside of Mitch Haniger and to a much lesser extent Kyle Seager, this lineup really struggles with the pitch mix that Buehler will throw tonight. 

One final positive spin for Buehler is his hard hit rate.  For the season, he’s struggled with his hard hit %.  It’s at 41%.  In his last start vs. the Cubs it was down to 26.7%.  I’m hopeful this is a trend that will continue.  All signs point to Buehler continuing his string of strong outings. 

A strong case could also be made for Brady Singer ($7.8k) vs. Detroit Tigers and Kwang-hyun Kim ($6.3k) vs. Milwaukee Brewers.  Both are facing opponents that have K rates vs. their handedness north of 28%.  The cons of playing them though are the Tigers are playing much better ball of late and Kim is a low K pitcher.  On a night where we have decently priced pitchers, I don’t think you’ll need to go here. 

MLB DFS: The Bats

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Bryse Wilson – Wilson has been pretty dreadful this year.  In a short sample size of only 12 IP he’s already managed to give up 4 homers.  That’s one every 3 innings for those counting at home.  Of all the pitchers on the slate tonight, that’s by far the worst.  He is also sporting a near 6 xFIP and a swinging strike rate below 10%.  He’s not missing bats and he’s giving up the long ball.  Match made in heaven. 

Wilson has been throwing his sinker considerably more this year, 25% of the time.  How have the Blue Jays handled the sinker this year you ask?  Pretty damn well.  Vladimir Guerrero ($4k), Randal Grichuk ($2.8k), Marcus Semien ($3.4k), and even the struggling Cavan Biggio ($2.5k) have been hitting this pitch hard this year and with success.  All have hard hit rates over 40% and wOBA’s over .400 to the pitch.  I’m all in on the Blue Jays tonight. 

Washington Nationals vs. Chase Anderson – Nationals get to face off against a pitcher this year that has struggled.  Anderson for the season has a 5.42 xFIP and is giving up a decent amount of hard contact at 32%.  He’s not getting many K’s as his K rate is a meager 17.8%.  

We also have a pitcher that is a reverse splits pitcher.  Since 2016, he’s giving up a .372 wOBA and a .249 ISO to righties.  Because of that, we don’t need to shy away from someone like Trea Turner ($4k).  With Juan Soto ($4k) back in the lineup this is going to be a tougher lineup.  Yes Soto hasn’t been good so far this year, but it’s only a matter of time before he goes off. 

Atlanta Braves vs. Robbie Ray – Wait, didn’t you just write up Robbie Ray as one of your pitchers?  Yes, yes I did.  This is a hedge play.  If you aren’t going to go with Ray tonight, you should strongly consider the Braves bats.  Yes, the Braves have struggled mightily vs. southpaws this year.  Yes, Ray has been better with his control this year and in turn performing better. 

We have enough historical data at our hands to show us that the Braves should not be this bad vs. lefties and that Ray can blow up at any time.  Guys like Ronald Acuna ($4.5k), Marcel Ozuna ($3.3k), and Ozzie Albies ($3.2k) have historically done extremely well vs. southpaws.  A breakout for all could very well be in the cards tonight.  

Some other sports I also like tonight are the Chicago White Sox vs. Kent Maeda and Kansas City Royals vs. Matthew Boyd. 

MLB DFS: The Wrap Up

This is going to be a fun slate.  We have some really good mid-tier pitching to go along with Walker Buehler.  We also have some pretty wide open spots for offense.  There’s a chance for some rain in Atlanta but the game that’s really at risk is Colorado.  

Good luck and hope to see you in the green tonight!

We’ve got a 13-game main slate for 9/24 DFS and while a playoff picture is finally emerging and the season is winding down, there are still some high-upside hitters and stacks to get you prepped to win some green!

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)

A flashback at some of the best performances from the Wednesday slate plus their outlooks for the remainder of the season on the 9/19 MLB DFS and Betting review and look ahead.

9/19 MLB DFS Winner: Toronto Blue Jays

Here is a Tuesday snippet from our Slack Channel, that is accessible to all Premium Gold members. This is one of the many winners that are shown throughout the channel. The Toronto Blue Jays faced the Baltimore Orioles in Camden Yards and there was not much hope for the pitching staff of either team. As shown above, the Blue Jays won 11-10 behind a six-run ninth inning. Randal Grichuk went 1-for-5 with a grand slam and Teoscar Hernandez went 1-for-6 with a three-run home run.

Outlook for the rest of the season: The young Blue Jays hitters are showing that they could possibly be as good as their fathers: 11 runs, 15 hits, nine walks, and reaching twice via an error. Overcoming a 7-1 deficit after five innings, the Blue Jays stayed on the pedal and dominated the Orioles bullpen. Expect the Blue Jays to finish the year strong, attempting to play spoiler along the way and gain experience going into the 2020 season.

9/19 MLB DFS Winner: Aaron Civale

As Brandon C. Williams stated in the DFS Pitching Picks, Aaron Civale had a great day on the hill against the Detroit Tigers. He picked up a no-decision while going 7.2 innings and allowing a run on four hits with a walk and four strikeouts.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Don’t look now but Civale has a 1.82 ERA through 54.1 innings thus far in his rookie campaign. He is looking like if the Indians make an ALDS appearance, Civale has an argument to be near the top of the starting rotation. Expect similar outings like this one for the final couple of starts for Civale to end the regular season.

9/19 MLB DFS Winner: Trey Mancini

Jason chose as a top catcher/first baseman slot on the MLB Cheatsheet, also available for all premium members, Trey Mancini had a solid day at the plate against the Toronto Blue Jays. Mancini went 2-for-5 with a double, a run scored and three RBI.

Outlook for the rest of the season: The Baltimore Orioles do not have many reasons for people to pay attention (unless you are winning $1,500 on their demise) but Trey Mancini has been outstanding for them. He is now up to 91 RBI on a team that has scored 661 runs all season. Mancini might be stuck in a rebuild as he is about to enter arbitration this offseason, but expect him to get very close, if not surpass 100 RBI by the end of the year.

9/19 MLB DFS Winner: Yuli Gurriel

Another solid choice by Jason, this time a value catcher/first baseman, Yuli Gurriel had a great value for DFS players that chose him in their lineup. Gurriel went up against the Texas Rangers and finished 2-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run.

Outlook for the rest of the season: Gurriel is now up to 30 home runs and an OPS of .902 on the season. Besides the offense, the ability to play both corner infield spots could play a huge factor with keeping him in the lineup while managing rest now that they clinched the AL West. Expect Gurriel to be a major force in the Astros lineup for their final few games of the season and beyond.

This Sunday August 18th slate is all about landing the right bats. Follow my stud and value plays and lock in the MLB DFS Picks of Destiny.

Check out our Data Driven Projections for FanDuel Hitters for Premium Gold Members.

Todays picks are listed in order of preference, not price.

David Jones won 100K on FanDuel this week! Read about it here!

Catcher: Danny Jansen ($2,800 FD) has three home runs in his last six games an no one plays him because he is at the bottom of the order. The Blue Jays should beat up on Yusei Kikuchi (L) today. He carries a 5.56 ERA and 1.52 WHIP. He has given up seven home runs in his last 12.1 innings. Jansen has five home runs in 92 at bats this year and hits lefties at .216 ISO/.332 wOBA.

Catcher: Will Smith ($3,600) Against lefties this season the Fresh Prince has two home runs in 26 at bats. He has a .308 ISO/.389 wOBA. The game starts at 1:20pm today in ATL and it will be HOT. He goes against Max Fried, who I do have a lot of respect for. In his last three game he has not given up a home run, but that doesn’t mean he can’t. If Smith is batting close to the top of the order, I like it even more.

First Base: Pete Alonso ($4,200 FD) goes against Glenn Sparkman. Spark has a 5.45 ERA and 1.44 WHIP. He has given up seven home runs in his last five. Alonso has the best bat on the Mets and is most likely to take Spark deep. He has 27 home runs this season and is hitting .305 ISO/ .406 wOBA vs righties.

First Base: Sam Travis ($2,900 FD) is too cheap for his opportunity today. He goes against my favorite pitcher to target, Ty Blach. Travis has four homers vs lefties and bats .241 ISO/.368 wOBA. He looks like the best value at first today.

Honorable Mentions: Matt Adams

Second Base: Keston Hiura ($3,500 FD) is always contributing. The Brewers get a totally depleted Washington BP today after they used nine pitchers in last nights OT blowout. The Nats should be leaving Fedde in as long as possible and that is something the Brew Crew can take advantage of. Hiura has 13 home runs on 164 AB’s this season and hits .323 ISO/.442 wOBA. He has double digit MLB DFS points in six of his last eight games.

Second Base Austin Nola ($2,500 FD) Uh oh. I like some Mariners today. Nola will get the lefty long reliever Thomas Pannone for the majority of the game. He has also been bumped up to third in the batting order. Nola has three home runs in 44 AB’s vs southpaws. Pannone has a 6.39 ERA. I am going to invest in some of this Mariners MLB DFS value at very low ownership today.

Honorable Mentions: Bo Bichette

Third Base: Rafael Devers ($4,200 FD) Get ready for fireworks in Boston vs Ty Blach (13.94 ERA) Devers hit lefties well at .279 ISO/.388 wOBA and is going to be in the heart of the Boston lineup who has 7.5 implied runs. I’m stacking the Red Sox today.

Third Base: Kyle Seager ($3,500 FD) has eight home runs off lefties in only 87 AB’s this year. He hits them at .267/.337/.575 and gets Thomas Pannone who I am not afraid to target, even if the Mariners offense isn’t particularly intimidating. Seager has been hot lately too. He has a hit in 11 games straight with six home runs in the same time frame.

Short Stop: Xander Bogaerts ($4,200 FD) is another Red Sox bat to roster vs Blach. He hits lefties at .279 ISO/.388 wOBA with eight home runs on the season. The Red Sox are getting to Blach (13.94 ERA), you just got to pick the right ones.

Short Stop: Trae Turner ($3,900 FD) is getting it done every night and is only priced at $3,900. He is batting lead vs Chase Anderson (3.78 ERA) who has been fine, but he is going to be asked to stay in the game longer today and I can see it falling apart for him. The Nationals probably didnt sleep so well after losing the way they did last night in extra innings. I expect them to be motivated for revenge today.

Outfield: JD Martinez (4,200 FD) vs is lefty is always something you need to consider. When he is vs a bad lefty you just lock him in. Ty Blach is pitching in Fenway today. He has a 13.94 ERA and 2.71 WHIP. WOOF. In he last three starts he has not made it past the fourth inning and gave up 16 runs. JD has 14 homers on the season vs left hander and he is getting another one today.

Outfield: Christian Yelich ($4,700) gets the worn out Nationals BP today too. He is elite with 30 HR on the season and hitting .405 ISO/.502 wOBA. Not much analysis needed. #AlwaysYelich.

Outfield Value: Tim Lopes ($2,500 FD) is batting lead off for the Mariners today. Why do I care? Because the long reliever is a Lefty and Lopes hits them .308/.357/.615. The Mariners put him up top for a reason today and he will hit value at $2,500. Also no one will own him, except for us.

Honorable Mentions: Aristides Aquino, Randal Grichuk

Teams with Highest IRT

Fantasy Team Stack: Boston Red Sox**

vs. LHP Tyler Blach (BOS): UPDATE

**Low Risk

Back to the Red Sox we go! No line out from Vegas yet but it’s safe to assume that Boston will carry the biggest implied run total on today’s slate. Same song and dance, the Red Sox face the worst bullpen and starting pitching rotation in all of baseball. Ty Blach is a career dumpster fire and carries a 13.94 ERA, 7.67 FIP, and 6.29 SIERA through 10 innings pitched this season. History tells us Blach has been fairly decent to lefties but I won’t hesitate to play Devers. Guy’s like J.D. Martinez and Mookie Betts are a priority for me. The Red Sox continue to hit well, slashing to a .373 wOBA, .272 ISO, and 130 WRC+ for the month. Massive chalk here but I feel fine eating it.

Preferred Plays: J.D. Martinez ($4200 FD|$5400 DK), Mookie Betts ($4300 FD|$5300 DK), Sam Travis ($2900 FD|$3800 DK), and Andrew Benintendi ($3700 FD|$4500 DK). Also consider Xander Bogaerts ($4200 FD|$5400 DK. Chris Owings ($2200 FD|$2200 DK) for big salary relief.

Fantasy Team Stack: New York Mets

vs. RHP Glenn Sparkman (KCR): 5.80 Runs

**High Risk

Initial chalk reports this morning indicate that the Mets should attract a good bit of ownership. I can respect that at first glance with Glenn Sparkman owning a 13% K rate and 84% contact on the year. If we dig a little further we will see that other than two starts Sparkman has been very dominant to right handed batting at home. He has allowed hitters to slash to a measley .278 wOBA, .370 SLG, and .281 OBP through 57 innings pitched. I’m not advocating you to play Sparkman, there just isn’t enough strikeout upside with him and win probability is slim with Wheeler on the other side of the plate. I will likely fade the Mets here as they are rolling out seven righties.

Preferred Stack: Pete Alonso ($4200 FD|$5400 DK) , J.D. Davis ($3300 FD|$4700 DK), Michael Conforto ($3700 FD|$4700 DK), Amed Rosario ($2700 FD|$4200 DK). Joe Panik ($2400 FD|$3300 DK) for value.

Fantasy Team Stack: Milwaukee Brewers/Washington Nationals**

vs. RHP Eric Fedde (TEX): 5.50 Runs

vs. RHP Chase Anderson (MIL): 5.50 Runs

**Moderate Risk

This is another game that should attract a good bit of ownership. The Brewers and Nationals put on a 14 inning show last night combining for 29 total runs. In the meantime they both exhausted their entire bullpens and we get two pitchers who typically don’t go deep into games facing off in today’s matchup. The weather and park factor give us a boost as well. My only hesitation is a possible hangover from a quick turnaround but other than that I like both of these teams today.

Nats: Preferred Plays: Juan Soto ($4000 FD|$5200 DK), Anthony Rendon ($4300 FD|$5400 DK), Trea Turner ($3900 FD|$5200 DK), and Matt Adams ($3100 FD|$4000 DK). Gerrardo Parra ($2000 FD|$3900 DK) great for value on Fanduel.

Brewers: Preferred Plays: Christian Yelich ($4700 FD|$5600 DK), Trent Grisham ($3000 FD|$3500 DK), Keston Hiura ($3500 FD|$4000 DK), and Eric Thames ($3000 FD|$4300 DK).

Other Teams I Have Interest in

Fantasy Team Stack: Toronto Blue Jay’s

vs. LHP Yusei Kikuchi (SEA): 5.60 Runs

**Moderate Risk

Preferred Plays: Randal Grichuk ($3200 FD|$5500 DK), Bo Bichette ($3300 FD|$4800 DK), Justin Smoak ($2700 FD|$3600 DK) and Derek Fisher ($2600 FD|$4000 DK). Also consider: Teoscar Hernandez ($2900 FD|$4100 DK).

Fantasy Team Stack: Los Angeles Dodgers**

vs. LHP Max Fried (ATL): 4.75 Runs

**Moderate Risk

Preferred Plays: Will Smith ($3600 FD|$5200 DK), Justin Turner ($3700 FD|$5000 DK), A.J. Pollock ($3300 FD|$4400 DK), Cody Bellinger ($4700 FD|$5800 DK) and Kyle Garlick ($2300 FD|$3600 DK). Jedd Gyorko (2000 FD|$3700 DK) for min price on Fanduel.

Teams with Highest IRT

DFS Team Stack: Colorado Rockies

vs. RHP Sandy Alcantara (COL): 7.75 Runs

**Moderate Risk

The Rockies unsurprisingly come in with the highest implied run total on the slate. They happen to be heating up again over the last month and are slashing to a .347 wOBA, .194 ISO, and 98 WRC+ against RHP. Sandy Alcantara has been fairly decent this year, owning a 4.44 ERA, 4.87 FIP, and 5.65 SIERA. I feel like this game can go either way. It will either be a low scoring pitcher’s night between Gray and Alcantara, or it will be a one sided blowout from the Rockies. Obviously the Rockies are the chalk play but Jon Gray is in a decent spot here despite the ballpark. The Marlins are still priced fairly cheap so they make for a good value stack, but I do prefer Jon Gray.

Preferred Stack: Charlie Blackmon ($4600 FD|$5500 DK), Daniel Murphy** (Way too cheap) ($3000 FD|$4100 DK), Ryan McMahon ($3600 FD|$4700 DK), and Trevor Story ($4400 FD|$5700 DK). Obviously Nolan Arenado ($4400 FD|$5400 DK) is in play but the salaries on this team are too high for both so I prefer Story.

DFS Team Stack: Boston Red Sox

vs. RHP Aaron Brooks (BAL): 8.10 Runs

**Low Risk

Another sad day where I have to pick on my Orioles but it is warranted with how they’ve performed this season. The Orioles are the worst team in the league in terms of run differential at -243 and their bullpen is absolutely atrocious, ranking dead last in the league in terms of efficiency. Aaron Brooks will pave the way for that stellar bullpen, owning a 6.35 ERA, 6.13 FIP, and 4.82 SIERA. In addition to his poor season averages, he is allowing 2.36 HR/9 innings and 40% FB rate. The Red Sox are slashing to a .353 wOBA, .216 ISO, and .345 BABIP in the month of August. The Red Sox are another pricey stack but nonetheless in a great spot and a team that I favor more than the Coors chalk.

Preferred Plays: Xander Bogaerts ($4200 FD|$5300 DK), Rafael Devers ($4300 FD|$5600 DK), Mitch Moreland ($3200 FD|$4500 DK), and Mookie Betts ($4100 FD|$5200 DK). You should also consider: J.D. Martinez ($4300 FD|$5100 DK) and Marco Hernandez ($

DFS Team Stack: New York Yankees

vs. RHP Aaron Civale (CLE): 5.40 Runs

**High Risk

The Yankees let a lot of people down last night with the Indians breaking their spirit in the top of the first inning. They theoretically should bounce back tonight, but the pitcher they are facing (Civale) has had great outings in his first three starts in the bigs and has maintained a sub 3.00 ERA through his time in A ball. The Yankees are very expensive and I feel there is some uncertainty with this matchup. Obviously the Yankees have raw power and talent, but any time you’re facing a pitcher for the first time it can go either way. Nonetheless, the Yankees are slashing to a .350 wOBA, .276 ISO and 117 WRC+ against RHPs right now. Civale allowed one run and four hits while striking out five batters across six innings against the red hot Twins in his last start. Yankees are a fade for me tonight.

Preferred Plays: D.J. LeMahieu ($4300 FD|$5000 DK), Gio Urshela ($4400 FD|$5300 DK), Gleyber Torres ($4200 FD|$4800 DK), and Gary Sanchez ($4100 FD|$4500 DK).

Other Teams I Have Interest in

DFS Team Stack: Tampa Bay Rays

vs. LHP Daniel Norris (DET): 5.00 Runs

**Moderate Risk

Preferred Plays: Tommy Pham ($3600 FD|$4300 DK), Travis d’Arnaud ($3100 FD|$3900 DK), and Jesus Aguilar ($2700 FD|$3600 DK). Mike Brosseau ($2300 FD|$3700 DK) and Matt Duffy ($2500 FD|$3300 DK) for value.

DFS Team Stack: Toronto Blue Jays

vs. LHP Wade LeBlanc (SEA):UPDATE

**Low Risk

Preferred Plays: Cavan Biggio ($3900 FD|$4000 DK), Rowdy Tellez ($2200 FD|$3500 DK), Randal Grichuk ($3300 FD|$4100 DK), Vlad Guererro Jr. ($3300 FD|$3900 DK) and Bo Bichette ($4100 FD|$4800 DK). Also Consider Teoscar Hernandez ($3000 FD|$4000 DK).

DFS Team Stack: New York Mets

vs. LHP Mike Montgomery (KCR): 5.20 Runs

Preferred Plays: Pete Alonso ($4000 FD|$5100 DK), J.D. Davis ($3100 FD|$4800 DK), Michael Conforto ($3500 FD|$4800 DK), and Amed Rosario ($2500 FD|$4000 DK).

MLB Stack: Colorado Rockies

vs. RHP Merrill Kelly (ARI): 7.50 Runs

**Low Risk

I’m going to get the Coors chalk out of the way to start things off. We have Merrill Kelly taking on the Rockies at home tonight. Kelly owns a 4.52 ERA, 4.61 FIP, and 4.82 SIERA. Kelly is allowing the second highest hard contact rate on the slate at 42.4% and 1.51 HR/9. He tends to struggle the most on the road, allowing righties to slash to a .335 wOBA, .479 SLG, and .325 OBP. He has allowed 28 earned runs in 36 innings pitched against them. Rockies batters are slashing to a .321 wOBA, .171 ISO, and 81 WRC+ over the last month and they get the highest implied run total here tonight.

Preferred Stack: Trevor Story ($4600 FD|$5600 DK), Nolan Arenado ($4500 FD|$5400 DK), Charlie Blackmon ($4700 FD|$5700 DK), and Ryan McMahon ($3200 FD|$4200 DK). Yonathon Daza ($2600 FD|$3200 DK) and Raimel Tapia ($3100 FD|$4100 DK) make excellent value plays.

MLB Stack: Arizona Diamondbacks

vs. RHP Peter Lambert (COL): 6.50 Runs

**Low Risk

Arizona hasn’t been as hot as you’d like them to be coming into tonight’s matchup, slashing to a .325 wOBA, .167 ISO, and 97 WRC+. Despite this, the Diamondbacks get a gravy matchup against Peter Lambert, who struggles immensely at home. He is allowing batters to slash to a .399 wOBA, .626 SLG, and .358 OBP. He has allowed 24 earned runs and nine home runs in 29 innings pitched. Colorado/Arizona will be very popular, so get creative in tournaments. Also looks like some pricing we can take advantage of on FanDuel, as Arizona bats are underpriced there.

Preferred Plays: Christian Walker ($3600 FD|$4900 DK), Eduardo Escobar ($4200 FD|$5500 DK), Ketel Marte ($4400 FD|$5500 DK), and David Peralta ($3800 FD|$4900 DK). Jake Lamb ($3100 FD|$4300 DK), Jarrod Dyson ($3200 FD|$5300 DK), and Carson Kelly ($3300 FD|$5200 DK). serve as good value plays.
