Tampa Bay Rays
Kevin Gausman was one of the top pitching prospects in the league just a few years ago. He has shown some potential since then, though his issues against righties have always been quite obvious. He's now fallen off a cliff. Against righties, he has held a .404 wOBA that is backed up by a crazy 27% line drive rate. He's also allowed 9 homers in under 50 innings. He stays in Camden Yards today and hosts the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays are one of the more electrifying offenses, although they can definitely be shut down. Evan Longoria and Corey Dickerson are the 2 top options and I wouldn't make a stack without either of them. Longo gets the reverse split advantage and Dickerson just destroys right-handers. After those 2, you have a few other ways to go. Mallex Smith will be at the top of the order and has a ton of speed and upside. Souza and Morrison have a ton of power and you can see 2 HR's out of either of them at any time. Ramos is also a pretty solid option at a lackluster catcher position.
Main Stack - Corey Dickerson, Mallex Smith, Steven Souza, Evan Longoria
Sneaky Stack - Corey Dickerson, Evan Longoria, Logan Morrison, Wilson Ramos
Chicago Cubs
The Cubs have definitely struggled as of late, but you have to imagine they will turn it around somewhat against Tim Adleman. Adleman has struggled against both lefties and righties, sporting a .344 combined wOBA. He has been worse in Great American Ballpark and it makes sense. The GAB is one of the top parks in the league for hitting and is much better than Wrigley. Adleman has had a few HR issues against lefties as well, which is something to keep an eye on. Anthony Rizzo is the only elite must-play with Kris Bryant on the shelf, but that may keep the ownership down as a whole. Addison Russell and Willson Contreras are both going to be at the top of the order and should be able to get a few RBI opportunities. At the top of the order, Ian Happ and Ben Zobrist are very safe options. All in all, this offense has a ton of ways to go and they should be under 10% owned. Keep an eye on the wind in Cincy, as it could affect the O/U.
Main Stack - Anthony Rizzo, Addison Russell, Ian Happ, Ben Zobrist
Sneaky Stack - Anthony Rizzo, Willson Contreras, Jon Jay, Ben Zobrist
