And will be going over a few more options below. Trevor Bauer FD 8900 DK 12800 Opponent - ATL (Gant) Park - @ATLFD - 33.85 DK - 18.35 Trevor Bauer started the year off in the bullpen, but when his number was called upon to become join the rotation, he has proven to his teammates and coaches that he should stick in the rotation. He is coming into tonight's contest sporting a 3.20 ERA to go along with a 3.28 FIP. This kid has been everything the Indians had hoped for and more. The one thing I love the most about this kid is his upside. He owns a 22.8 K% to go along with a 7.8 BB%. He has been able to limit the walks (compared to his career), which has helped him not only as a starter, but also as a reliable fantasy option. He will be going up against the Braves today, which is always a good thing, but also a bad thing. The good: The Braves own a .286 wOBA and (29th in MLB) and .096 ISO (30th in MLB) against right-handed pitchers. That sounds like an amazing matchup, so what exactly is the bad? The bad is: The Braves don't K a lot. They own a 19.2 K%, which will take a hit at Bauer's upside. The matchup is a thing of beauty and the Indians' bats are on fire, so I like his chances of picking up the W and delivering a quality start. Go ahead...

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 Colorado Rockies vs. Marco Estrada(TOR) Looks like we got a game at Coors (yippee). And to make things better -- it's on my favorite day of the week. I gotta say, there is nothing better than a Monday slate that involves Coors Field. Alright enough with the sarcasm, let's get to business. Coors is always in play, but if I had to pick between the Blue Jays and the Rockies; I'd go with the Rockies. I have created a list just for you guys on why I prefer a Rockies stack: 1. The Rockies own a .347 wOBA (3rd in MLB) and .199 ISO (2nd in MLB) against right-handed pitchers. They crush righties on a day-to-day basis and we all know what happens when they're playing at home. 2. Marco Estrada is not as good as you think he is. Yeah he's got a good-looking .270 ERA, but his FIP and xFIP are over 4. He is due for regression. Plus his BABIP is at .183. He is going to hit reality very soon. By very soon, I mean tonight. 3....

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. Team Stack Targets A note on the Coors game Normally we'd try to emphasize other stacks than the very most obvious one, but today is something of an exception. This game has a total of 12.5, which is a full 2.5 runs higher than the next two highest games. That's... ridiculous. Now, the Coors game is obviously not a favorite against the field to have the individually highest scoring game, so you may want to do a bit of bobbing and weaving in big tournaments. Still, this game is by far the most likely game to produce the highest scoring team if you pair it up against any other game individually. It's a clear target for cash games, and a reasonable target even as the chalk play in big tournaments. Still, there are some other teams that are on my radar today as well. Cincinnati Reds against Luis Perdomo Fantastic hitter's park and a lousy pitcher, need I say more? Oh man, I feel sick even having said "need I say more." I'll go ahead and say more. If you're not familiar with the work of Luis Perdomo, consider yourself lucky. Perdomo was a rule 5 pick-up from the Cardinals' minor league system who had never pitched above A+ ball in the minors. They plied him to modest success as a reliever, and then pressed...

Pitching Targets The big tourney plays James Paxton FD 7300 DK 7400 Opponent - STL (Garcia) Park - @SEA FD - 29.73 DK - 15.53 The Cardinals have been a strong offensive squad this season, but have actually put up the 4th worst wOBA in the league against LHP. Paxton himself is a prospect with grade A pedigree who hasn't quite put it together at the major league level yet. He's put up ridiculous K numbers across AAA and the majors in a short sample this season, averaging better than 10 K/9 and generating ground-balls on 51.1% of the balls in play he does allow. That's a recipe for the occasional big start, as evidenced by his back to back great starts against Cleveland and Texas earlier this season. Might he get blown up? Sure. It's arguably likely. But don't be shocked if you see his name atop tourney leaderboards alongside the fantastic big money plays you can grab today. Aaron Nola FD 8100 DK 8400 Opponent - SF (Cueto) Park - @SF FD - 32.4 DK - 18.33 If you want one that's really off board, here you go. Nola's got a phenomenal 2.92 xFIP this season, which is good for the 5th best in the majors. He's striking out 9.75 batters per 9 innings, good for 14th in the majors. If we're being honest with each other - and we should be honest with each other if this is going to be a long term thing - I'm not sure that Aaron Nola is really the budding ace he seems to be. The minor...

What We Know Personnel Ben Zobrist suffered a bruised left ankle in yesterday's contest against the Marlins and is listed as day-to-day.. Matt Adams was scratched from last nights lineup with back stiffness. He is listed as day-to-day. Yunel Escobar tweaked his knee on Thursday, but is expected to be back in the lineup tonight Luis Valbuena exited last nights game with back tightness and is listed as day-to-day. Domingo Santana (elbow) will be out through the All Star break. Anthony Rizzo said he is feeling better and is expected to be back in the lineup on Saturday. Stephen Strasburg (back) is on track to pitch Sunday. Carlos Gonzalez is listed as day-to-day with a minor wrist injury. Ryan Raburn will take his spot in the outfield. Top Tournament Stacks Diamondbacks So if I had to choose between stacking the Rockies or Diamondbacks, I would go with the Dbacks. They will be going up against Jorge De La Rosa who has struggled so far this season. He is coming into this contest sporting a 7.17 ERA (wow) that is backed up by a 4.41 xFIP. His ERA is definitely inflated, but pitching at Coors certainly won't help his cause today. The reason why I went with the Dbacks over the Rockies, is not only because Jorge De La Rosa has had his struggles this season, but the Dbacks also devour southpaws. They are coming into this contest sporting a .359 wOBA (1st in MLB) and .206 ISO (1st in MLB). It's safe to say they are one of the best offenses against southpaws and playing at Coors will certainly help them out. Padres 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...
