“Back to back, like I’m Jordan ‘96, ’97”
The Nats are in the top spot for the second straight day thanks to a matchup with Andrew Cashner and the Orioles. It well well yesterday, and I’m hoping to continue that trend. I’m perfectly happy using Adam Eaton, I just prefer the Soto/Harper OF pairing a bit more. Daniel Murphy is slightly overpriced, but still an excellent second base option. I’ll have minimal amounts of Wilmer Difo and/or Pedro Severino. They work better when trying to add some uniqueness to a lineup while saving some money.
Royals (#2 DraftKings / #2 FanDuel)
- Whit Merrifield
- Alex Gordon
- Mike Moustakas
- Salvador Perez
If you’re looking to stack up the Royals outside of the four guys listed above, some guys are better on different sites. For example, Hunter Dozier looks better on DraftKings than on FanDuel. Alcides Escobar, on the other hand, pops up more on FD than DK. Abraham Almonte is a functional, low-priced outfielder so long as you temper your expectations.
Mets (#3 DraftKings / #3 FanDuel)
- Michael Conforto
- Asdrubal Cabrera
- Todd Frazier
- Wilmer Flores
This one should be popular, particularly on FanDuel where the Mets have super cheap pricing for a Coors game. Brandon Nimmo is crazy expensive, but I’m willing to take those chances with a lead-off hitter in Colorado. Devin Mesoraco is one of the best catcher options of the slate. I’m not wild about Amed Rosario, especially if he’s hitting 9th, but grabbing a bargain shortstop as part of a stack isn’t the worst idea in the world.
