Long Ball Targets

Mike TroutMike Trout FD 4300 DK 4900
Opponent - OAK (Neal) Park - @LAA
FD - 13.17 DK - 10.27

A lot of great options in the outfield today, but no is giving love to my man Mike Trout. What's wrong with everyone? I know we got Coors Field in action, but it's Mike Trout for crying out loud!

He will be facing a southpaw in Eric Surkamp who struggles against right-handed bats. On the year, righties own a whooping .555 SLG to go along with a .402 wOBA. He has just gotten crushed and what better guy to roster on this Angels' squad than Mr. Trout? I know his career numbers are better against righties as opposed to lefties, but I expect him to execute on a Surkamp mistake in this contest.

Carlos BeltranCarlos Beltran FD 3900 DK 4500
Opponent - MIN (Milone) Park - @NYY
FD - 10.53 DK - 8.07

Now this is a guy no one will be targeting today that I love (Carlos Beltran)! Not only has he been playing like he's in his prime (.386 wOBA and .286 ISO this season), but those numbers increase drastically when facing a southpaw! He's got much more power and a higher average from the right side of the plate, so watch out Tommy Milone; you're in trouble! Not only are the splits in his favor, but he will also be playing at home (Yankee Stadium), so look for him to have some fun in the playground tonight!

P.S. I love Cargo and I think he hits a dinger, but I tried to avoid the obvious plays and give you some other tournament options.

So yeah, baseball season! And we've got some goodies you can take with you. At the end of the post, we have our MLB eBook that you really ought to check out before setting even a single daily fantasy MLB lineup. It's free, below.

  1. Love Trout tonight but I was looking at his teammate Jefry Marte as more off the radar guy he’s pretty good against lefties and usually bats 5th against them and is 3B and OF eligible on DK at only $3200 lets you pay up on pitching and grab some nice low owned upside what do you think?

    • Cargo. Carlos Gonzales from the rockies…

  2. I love the Marte call!! I will have some exposure to him tonight

  3. Nice let’s hope he comes through for us and great article you been on fire lately
