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 (Hitter stats provided are vs. the handiness of the pitcher they are facing) Chicago Cubs vs. Edwin Escobar (CIN) Edwin Escobar has only had one start this season, so I won't judge him based on that start. Even though he gave up 10 hits and 7 earned run, in 3 1/3 innings of work, I won't stack against him because of that (hard to ignore, but way too small of a sample size). Instead, I am stacking against him because he is facing the Chicago Cubs and they devour southpaws. On the year, the Cubs sport a .347 wOBA (4th in MLB), 117 wRC+ (4th in MLB) and .168 ISO (8th in MLB) against left-handed pitchers. They have been one of the best offenses in baseball and can put up runs in bunches, so they are always a great team to stack and today is no different. Some of the guys to stack against Escobar are: Dexter Fowler (.354 wOBA), Ben Zobrist (.440 wOBA), Kris Bryant (.288 ISO) and Javier Baez (.502 wOBA). Of course, you can go...

Pitching Targets Note: We discussed Clayton Kershaw, Jason Hammel and Junior Guerra in the Main Article. And will be going over a few more options below. Early Slate Jeremy Hellickson FD 7300 DK 9300 Opponent - MIL (Guerra) Park - @PHIFD - 31.89 DK - 16.9 Hellickson has just been outstanding for the Phils this season, and he has been one of the most under-appreciated pitchers this season, so I will go ahead and give him so love. Hellickson is coming into this contest sporting a 3.68 ERA that is backed up by a 3.38 xFIP. Not sure how good a 3.38 xFIP really is? Let’s just say he’s in-front of Madison Bumgarner, Jose Quintana, Chris Sale and John Lackey in that department. I know he plays for the Phills’ and a 4-3 record isn’t all that impressive, but this kid has been good! Now let’s talk about his matchup. He will be going up against the Brewers who have had their struggles so far this season. They are coming into this contest sporting a 26.9 K% (first in MLB)...

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 All hitter stats provided are against the handedness of the pitcher they are facing Early Slate The San Francisco Giants vs. Aaron Blair Kicking things off, we've got a short 3 game early slate to look at, and the stacking option that stands out to me the most is the Ginats vs. Aaron Blair. Blair is the lowest priced pitcher on the slate for a reason, as he's got some numbers that have to be considered poor at best. His biggest weakness comes when he faces left-handed pitching, where he's allowing a line of .320/.448/.489, an xFIP of 6.60 and he's walked 9 batters compared to recording only 3 strikeouts. To be honest his numbers against right-handed batters are pretty terrible as well so I would say that all Giant hitters are in play today. Our projection system really likes guys like Buster Posey, Brandon Belt, Brandon Crawford, and Denard Span, but as I already mentioned you can really mix and match any combination of hitters to take advantage of this matchup. I'm not crazy about the ballpark factor and...

Daily Fantasy MLB Pitcher Breakdown FanDuel and DraftKings- 6/2/16 Welcome to our new daily article breaking down some of the other pitching targets on this slate. We covered our system's top value plays in our daily picks article and our weather report but here we will look at other dudes to consider.

We also have great talks in the comments of that article. Hope to see you there! Pitching Targets We already covered Madison Bumgarner, Wade Miley and Jared Eickhoff in our main picks article.  If you want breakdowns on those guy head over there. Early Slate I'm going to make this real simple for you. Play Bumgarner. That is all. Late Slate Matt Boyd FD 5200 DK 6400 Opponent - NYY (Pineda) Park - @DETFD - 23.54 DK - 11.49 If your goal is to load up on Rockies/Reds/Red Sox bats today, I think that Matt Boyd makes for a very interesting play, particularly on Fanduel where he's the second cheapest pitcher on the slate. Now I will be the first to admit that Boyd got roughed up quite a bit last year, but he seems to have gotten it together in the limited amount of time he's pitched this season. His ERA is waaaaaaay down (almost 5 whole runs), his K/9 is up, his BB/9 is down, and his GB % has jumped nearly 9% since last season. While the Yankees don't strike out a ton, they are near the bottom in offensive rankings this season when it comes to facing southpaws, so that bodes well for Boyd here. This is definitely a shot in the dark, but I think running Boyd in a couple of GPP's could have a big payoff tonight. Carlos Carrasco FD 10200 DK 10300 Opponent - KC (Ventura) Park - @CLEFD - 35.04 DK - 18.88 For those of you considering using Carlos Carrasco as your pitcher tonight I'd ask that you strongly reconsider that decision. Not that Carrasco has been bad or anything this...

Stack Targets (Hitter stats provided are vs. the handiness of the pitcher they are facing) Early Slate The Houston Astros vs. Patrick Corbin We called for an Astros stack yesterday and boy did it pay off. The 'Stros find themselves in another nice lefty matchup with Patrick Corbin, who isn't terrible but is struggling mightily against right-handed batters. For the season against a right-handed split he's got a K/9 ratio of only 4.66, an xFIP of 4.65 and a wOBA of .343. Those are numbers we can certainly work with as far as stacks go, and the Astros are by far the best stacking option on the early slate. Again I'm targeting guys like Evan Gattis (.411 wOBA), Jose Altuve (.464 wOBA), Carlos Correa (.347 wOBA for his career), and George Springer (.405 wOBA). Each of these guys should be hitting near the middle or top of the order so look for each of them to see plenty of chances to put up some big numbers again (I know Gattis didn't play yesterday but he should be in the lineup today). Late...
