Houston Astros

We once looked at Francisco Liriano as a strong GPP pitcher that can go out and blow up any game. he was known to put up 50 FDP one start and give up 8 runs the next. He's now a bit more leaning to the ladder on a consistent basis. Liriano has allowed a .370 wOBA to righties, worst of his career. He is struggling to strike out righties and is allowing a .420 wOBA on the first 2 pitches. Liriano is basically done at this point and unless he somehow changes his approach in the offseason, this could be one of his last seasons. He gets one of the toughest match-ups possible, if not the toughest for lefties. Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa have both sported +.400 wOBA's against lefties and are absolute musts if you're stacking the Astros. Evan Gattis fills one of the rougher positions and is in the 4 hole, so I won't leave him off either. The rest of the order is dynamite and not very concentrated, so feel free to go anywhere. If I had to choose a number 4, I'll go with George Springer in the leadoff spot. The Astros are expensive and I think Liriano has a decent reputation around him, so they could go under-owned. If the Astros are under 20%, it's a steal.

Main Stack - Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, George Springer, Evan Gattis
Sneaky Stack - Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, Carlos Beltran, Marwin Gonzalez

Seattle Mariners

The Mariners currently hold the highest implied team total on this main slate, so we certainly can't just ignore them. Sitting at 5.62 runs, Vegas expects Paul Blackburn to have a lot of trouble here. It does make sense, even though Blackburn has some nice looking surface stats. He's struggled to strike out 6 batters per 9 innings in the minors and when you bring those type os numbers to the majors, you get results like Ty Blach. It's not sustainable and MLB hitters are going to eventually find holes. This Mariners team is extremely lethal, even at Safeco Field. Jean Segura, Nelson Cruz, Robinson Cano, and Kyle Seager are honestly way above the rest for me. Segura is actually better against righties and has a lot more stolen base upside against them. Seager and Cano, as lefties, are obviously better against right-handers. Ben Gamel is the next guy up, but won't find his way into any cash game stacks. You then move into the likes of Mitch Haniger and Mike Zunino. In tournaments, I love them both and could see making a case as a 1-off as well. All in all, the Mariners are facing a 23-year-old inexperienced rookie that is expected to struggle on the road.

Main Stack - Robinson Cano, Jean Segura, Kyle Seager, Nelson Cruz
Sneaky Stack - Robsinson Cano, Kyle Seager, Mitch Haniger, Mike Zunino
