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. Early Slate Stack Targets *Coors is obviously in play, but I thought it would be better to give you a few other options instead. San Diego Padres vs. Brandon Finnegan (SD) Brandon Finnegan is coming into this contest with a good-looking 3.81 ERA. Sure that's a nice ERA, but the question that I have for you guys is: Is he as good as his ERA indicates? And the answer to that question is [no]. On the year, he owns a 5.03 xFIP to go along with a 4.8 K-BB%. Let's just say that ERA is going to drop big-time and it all starts today. I know we have a tendency to target pitchers against the Padres, but that is a big mistake when you have a southpaw on the mound. The Padres own a .340 wOBA (6th in MLB) and 116 wRC+ (3rd in MLB) against lefties. They throw out a ton of right-handed bats when a lefty is on the hill, so look for the Padres to have themselves a day; especially at Great American (Small) Park. Main Slate Stack Targets...

Long Ball Targets Mike Trout FD 4300 DK 4900 Opponent - OAK (Neal) Park - @LAAFD - 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 Beltran FD 3900 DK 4500 Opponent - MIN (Milone) Park - @NYYFD - 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...

Long Ball Targets Kris Bryant FD 4100 DK 4800 Opponent - MIA (Chen) Park - @MIAFD - 11.26 DK - 8.72 Kris Bryant and his .388 wOBA will be going up against southpaw Wei-Yin Chen. Chen has already allowed 14 homers to right-handed bats on the year, so I guess you could say this was an obvious pick for me. Bryant will be playing at spacious Marlins Park today, but he's got plenty of power (.329 ISO vs. lefties) to put one in the stands. This was the formula my crystal ball presented me with today: Kris Bryant (.329 ISO) + Wei-Yin Chen (14 homers to righties) + 39.4 FB% + 37.2% hard contact rate = Kris Bryant dinger! Matt Kemp FD 3700 DK 4900 Opponent - CIN (Lamb) Park - @CINFD - 11.75 DK - 9.2 Everyone has forgotten about Matt Kemp ever since he left L.A. and moved to San Diego, but boy is he devouring lefties. He is coming into this contest with a .447 wOBA, .373 ISO and 1.098 OPS vs. lefties. He is just killing them, and I expect tonight to be no different going up against John Lamb. Lamb owns a 4.75 ERA and 5.17 FIP. He has not had it go his way this season, which is why I will go ahead and roster Kemp. Plus, he will be leaving spacious Petco Park to head to hitter-friendly Great American Ballpark. So yeah, baseball season! And we've got some...

Long Ball Targets Chris Davis FD 4200 DK 5100 Opponent - SD (Johnson) Park - @BALFD - 11.83 DK - 8.81 The crystal ball has spoken -- and this is what it had to say: Crush Davis + Erik Johnson = Dinger. It didn't give me any explanations, it just simply gave me that formula, so I will go ahead and back it up. We all know Chris Davis has tremendous power. This isn't a big secret or anything. He is coming into tonight's contest sporting a .256 ISO vs. right-handers to go along with a .365 wOBA. The best part about this matchup isn't Davis' power vs. righties, but rather Johnson's struggles vs. lefties. On the year, left-handed bats own a .392 wOBA and .646 SLG against Johnson (ouch). They have devoured him this season and moving from spacious Petco Park to hitter-friendly Camden Yards, won't help the 26-year-old. Look for Davis to "Crush" one into the stands. Mark Trumbo FD 3800 DK 4200 Opponent - SD (Johnson) Park - @BALFD - 9.64 DK - 7.36 Sorry, Erik Johnson, I just see you having a rough time moving to a hitter-friendly park. Not only will Chris Davis do yard work, but Mark Trumbo will be joining him as well. I mentioned how bad Johsnon was against lefties, but he's just as bad against righties. On the year, they own .526 wOBA to go along with a .841 SLG. He's only had a few starts...

And will be going over a few more options below. Sonny Gray FD 8500 DK 6600 Opponent - MIL (Nelson) Park - @OAKFD - 35.65 DK - 18.6 I've been so disappointed with Sonny Gray. I get teary-eyed just hearing his name. I drafted him for my season-long squad and he's been absolutely awful, and I have no idea what to do with him. I am going to give him another shot before I release him and I honestly believe that today is the day he makes all season-long and DFS owners happy. There are three reasons why I love Sonny Gray. Not like, but love. 1. He will be going up against a Brewers squad that owns a 25.7 K% against right-handed pitchers. (Yikes). 2. He is so cheap on DraftKings ($6,600). I love his price tag and upside. 3. Vegas has him as a pretty heavy favorite. Him picking up a W would be huge! This is clearly a tournament only play, but I love the spot he's in to deliver a quality start. Johnny CuetoJohnny Cueto FD 11000 DK 12700 Opponent - PIT (Boscan) Park - @PITFD - 35.24 DK - 18.81 I don't think Cueto has the best of matchups going up against the Pirates, but I do think he's an excellent tournament play. Everyone will forget about Cueto because they will be debating about which pitcher they should take: Jose or Noah? If you're playing a tourney why not go with Cueto? This guy is...
