A quick heads up - we post an updates article every day in the early afternoon, EST, to catch everyone up on how things are changing as a result of whatever news has come through. We also have great talks in the comments of that article. Hope to see you there! Stacking in DFS MLB is such an important concept if you’re looking to take down a big tournament on FanDuel or DraftKings. It’s also a good way to diversify cash games because the variance in baseball can mean wild swings (ahem) in the scoring on a particular slate. The concept is easy. You want to pile players from one or two teams into your lineups because those guys compound scores by helping each other score runs when the going is good. Stack Targets Cleveland Indians vs. Tim Adleman(Reds) My favorite stack of the day has to be the Cleveland Indians offense going up against the inexperienced Tim Adleman in the hitter's haven that is Great American Ballpark. Adleman has only thrown 16 big league innings in his career, and while his numbers suggest he's doing a decent enough job, there are definitely areas in his game that can be exploited (namely his struggles against left-handed hitters). Although it is a small sample size of only 29 batters faced, Adleman is allowing lefties to hit .346/.414/.615 against him, and has already given up two home runs. Because of this, I would suggest stacking as many left-handed Indians as you can. Our system likes Carlos Santana (OPS of .874 vs right-handed pitching), Jason Kipnis (.909 OPS vs right-handed pitching), Tyler Naquin ( .316 batting average vs right-handed pitching), and Francisco Lindor (who is better against southpaws, but still good against righties). Combine all of that with the fact that Great American Ballpark is second only to Coors Field in terms of...

Pitching Targets Note: We discussed Jeff Samardzija in the Main Article and will be going over a few more options below. Chris Sale FD 12100 DK 13800 Opponent - HOU (McHugh) Park - @CHWFD - 43.13 DK - 24.41 If you are playing some MLB tournaments tonight; Chris Sale is your guy! There are two reasons why he is not the clear-cut option on today's slate: 1. His price tag is just through the [roof], (especially on Draftkings) 2. He will be going up against the Astros, which consist of right-handed bats that devour left-handed pitching. You might ask yourself -- What would Nick do in a situation like this? The answer is -- not to be scared and fire away! Put Chris Sale into those GPP lineups. I know he is going up against the Astros, but that is not going to scare me away from his 30.4 K%, 1.75 BB/9 and 2.69 SIERA, since 2015. He has been lights out for as long as I can remember and provides your team with such a high ceiling. Why am I targeting the...

You want to pile players from one or two teams into your lineups because those guys compound scores by helping each other score runs when the going is good. Stack Targets Minnesota Twins vs. Mike Pelfrey(Detroit) Another day, another article that picks on Mike Pelfrey. I promise that we don't have anything personal against the guy, he's just really not what we consider to be a serviceable big league pitcher. What you need to know about Pelfrey is that he's got an ERA and an xFIP closing in on 6, he's allowed almost as many walks as he has strikeouts, and has already given up 6 home runs this season. I know he had a decent outing against Baltimore his last time out, but I think that was more of a fluke than a sustainable trend. Comerica Park is actually an above average hitters park (which surprised me), and for what it's worth Pelfrey's ERA balloons to 7.04 when he's at home. For the Twins stack, our system really likes Joe Mauer, Brian Dozier, Trevor Plouffe, and Miguel Sano. Each of these guys has struggled a bit this season, but who better to have a break-out game against than one of the worst big league starting pitchers?...

Pitching Targets Note: We have already discussed Adam Conley in our main artcle. In this article we will discuss a few other options, mostly GPP options. Kenta Maeda FD 8800 DK 9700 Opponent - LAA (Shoemaker) Park - @LAD FD - 33.92 DK - 17.85 This slate is not a pretty one when it comes to selecting pitchers, so I will rely on Vegas odds to select the top cash option. and they love -- Kenta Maeda. He is heading into this contest facing Matt Shoemaker and as a -190 favorite. I expect the Dodgers to get ahead early in this game, which will allow Maeda to pitch relaxed and with confidence. Besides facing Matt Shoemaker, Maeda has a favorable matchup. He will be going up against the Angels, who have not hit right-handed pitchers well this season. They own a .305 wOBA (21st in MLB) and .127 ISO (29th in MLB). These guys sure struggle hitting for power, which is great for Maeda, but there is one flaw to this matchup. That is the fact that the Angels own a 16.0 K%....

You want to pile players from one or two teams into your lineups because those guys compound scores by helping each other score runs when the going is good. Stack Targets (Hitter stats provided are vs. the handiness of the pitcher they are facing) L.A. Dodgers vs. Matt Shoemaker (LAA) The Dodgers are in a perfect position for success tonight. They will be going up against Matt Shoemaker, who has just been awful over the last two seasons. He owns a 5.17 ERA to go along with a 4.84 FIP. He sure gives up a ton of runs, but he also owns a 38.7 GB%. He does not induce many ground ball outs, so look for L.A. to execute on pitches that Shoemaker leaves up in the zone. Speaking of balls up in the zone -- Shoemaker owns a 1.69 HR/9. He is going to give up a long ball or two or three, so make sure to stack those Dodgers. With Shoemaker's 5.17 ERA (since 2015), every guy in the lineup is in play for me tonight. I know we can only stack a certain number of players, so I have narrowed it down to four guys. They are: Adrian Gonzalez (.347 wOBA), Chase Utley (.406 wOBA), Yasmani Grandal (.341 wOBA) and Corey Seager (.345 wOBA). They have been the...
