And will be going over a few more options below. Jose Quintana FD 8800 DK 10400 Opponent - MIN (Gibson) Park - @CHWFD - 34.25 DK - 22.46 By now you all know how much I love Jose Quintana, but this isn't exactly a favorites pick. He has a gorgeous price tag ($8,800 on Fanduel) and has a beautiful matchup against the Twins. On the year, the Twins have struggled against southpaws. They are coming into this contest with a .306 wOBA (25th in MLB) to go along with a 24.5 K% (3rd in MLB). The upside is through the roof for Quintana and being heavy favorites will help him out even more. So do yourself a favor and pickup the GOAT and his 2.95 FIP on your DFS squads. Corey Kluber FD 10800 DK 13400 Opponent - ATL (Wisler) Park - @ATLFD - 38.14 DK - 25.19 Corey Kluber is next on my list. He's a little pricy to say the least, but there are so many options when it comes to bats, that I don't mind paying his price tag. We all know the drill. The Braves are awful offensively and playing at spacious Tuner Field won't help them out, but the problem with going against them is that they don't strikeout a whole lot. They own a K% under 20%, which will hurt any pitcher, even Kluber that owns a 25.1 K%. He should be able to deliver a quality start and with is team being heavy favorites increase...

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 Orioles vs.Erik Johnson (SD) Instead of boring you with Coors talk, I'm going to give you three other GPP options on tonight's slate. And the first team on the list are the Orioles. I'm going to start off by saying that Erik Johnson has had it real rough so far this season. He is coming into this contest with a FIP and ERA over 8 (not a typo) and a hard contact rate all the way at 42.0%. He is getting hit hard, so there is no better team to stack against him than the Orioles. The Orioles own a .350 wOBA (2nd in MLB) and .203 ISO (1st in MLB) against right-handed pitching. I see Johnson having a rough outing once again, so do yourself a favor and load up on those Baltimore bats! Marlins vs. Mike Pelfrey(DET) There are many other stacking options besides Coors and the Marlins are second on my list. They will be going up against Mike Pelfrey, who is another pitcher who has struggled this season. He is coming into this contest sporting a 4.91...
Daily Fantasy Baseball News and Updates for FanDuel and DraftKings – 6/27/16
Daily Fantasy Baseball News and Updates for FanDuel and DraftKings - 6/27/16 Welcome to the daily MLB updates and news article. We'll try and update it right up to line-up locks with as much information as comes across our desks. Let's get to it! Last night's picks can be found here, so you can wrap your mind around what you need to be looking at before lineups lock today. By the way - we keep our projection system updated with all of the batting lineup changes as they occur throughout the day right up until lineup lock. Every day. If you want access to that system so you can cut out a lot of the research element, click the button below! START YOUR FREE TRIAL! What We Know Personnel D.J. Lemahieu and Trevor Story are out of today's lineup. Let's consider them as day-to-day until we get another update. Vincent Velasquez was activated from the 15-day DL and will get the nod tonight against the Diamondbacks. Jordy Mercer left Sunday's game with a head injury. We will consider day-to-day for now. Stephen Strasburg was placed on the 15-day DL with a back injury. Brandon Phillips is not in the lineup on Monday against the Cubs. Carlos Santana is out of the lineup on Monday . Top Tournament Stacks Rockies and Blue Jays This is kind of obvious, but the top stacks of the day are the Blue Jays and Rockies. This game features two power-hitting teams. They are both top 10 in SLG and ISO this season and have also hit righties well. Not only are they one of the best power-hitting teams in the league, but they will also be playing at Coors Field. In case you didn't know, Coors Field is every hitters dream. The ball flies out of the bat in a hurry and is the friendliest park to hitters. These two squads are the clear-cut top stacks of the night. 11.5 run-total is very hard to ignore. Rangers Alright if you're trying to get away from Coors Field, I like the idea of stacking the Rangers. I know they were the chalk stacks a few times last week and didn't come through for us, but remember, we can't hold grudges and need a short memory (like Dory from Finding Nemo/Dory. The Rangers aren't a team that demolishes righties (15th in wOBA), but playing at Yankee Stadium (hitter-friendly park) and going up against Ivan Nova will certainly help. On the year, Nova owns a 5.18 ERA to go along with a 4.94 FIP. Things haven't gone his way this season, especially as of late. In his last six starts, he has allowed a total of 26...
Daily Fantasy MLB Long Ball Targets FanDuel & DraftKings 6/27/16
Daily Fantasy MLB Long Ball Targets FanDuel & DraftKings 6/27/16 Welcome to our new daily article breaking down some of our top targets to go yard on this slate. We covered our system's top value plays in our daily picks article but here we will look at guys that have the best chances to hit one into the seats! Let us know what you think, comment below!

We also have great talks in the comments of that article. Hope to see you there! Long Ball Targets Rougned Odor FD 3400 DK 4900 Opponent - NYY (Nova) Park - @NYYFD - 9.51 DK - 7.68 First on the list we got, Rougned Odor! I know he is most famous for punching Jose Bautista, but this kid has some power (not just with his punches, but with his bat as well). This season he sports a .216 ISO against right-handed pitchers. Not only do I like his power, but I also like that he will be going up against Ivan Nova. Nova has had a rough going in 2016. He is coming into this contest with an ERA over five and a 1.42 HR/9 rate. I know he's a ground ball pitcher, but he's struggled keeping the ball low in the zone which has hurt him a ton. Look for Odor to have himself a day going up against the struggling righty. This game will take place at Yankee Stadium, so look for Odor to take advantage of the short right field porch. Evan Longoria FD 3600 DK 4700 Opponent - BOS (Rodriguez) Park - @TBFD - 10.51 DK - 8.07v It's Longo Dong Day ladies and gentlemen! I'm all over the Rays today as they crush lefties and will be going up against streaky southpaw, Eduardo Rodriguez. Let's start off by talking about Longo. On the year, he owns a .354 wOBA to go along with a .255 ISO. It's safe to say the Longoria we were all accustomed to...

We also have great talks in the comments of that article. Hope to see you there! Pitching Targets Note: We discussed Jeff Samardzija and Jake Arrieta in the Main Article. 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...
