The following Spotlight Stacks were selected by Awesemo.com’s Director of Content Josh Engleman. Please check back later for notes/additional picks from Awesemo himself.
MIL (@ CIN)
The Brewers are my number one stack for Monday night, regardless of site. Brandon Finnegan should have trouble with baserunners all night, as evidenced by his Steamer projected 5.0 BB/9 and the Brewers implied total, which is third on the slate. Lorenzo Cain, Ryan Braun and Domingo Santana are my favorite three plays, but I’d be fine with anyone at all. Their pricing is hard to pass up in every situation.
CHC (vs. COL)
The Cubs come in as my second most popular stack against lefty Kyle Freeland and the Rockies. The total for this game isn’t out yet, but I believe my estimate is accurate, but possible a bit low. The Cubs are more likely to improve as a stack than fall down the list as more information comes in. The top three (Almora, Baez and Bryant) are the jewels, but Wilson Conteras, Anthony Rizzo and Addison Russell are all at nice prices.
BOS (vs. KC)
This game has a slight weather concern, but I don’t see it being a problem for the hitters. The Red Sox get Jason Hammel, who is a bit light on stuff. The Red Sox are 6th in baseball in Hard% against righties. This could be an early shower night for Mr. Hammel. I love a stack of the top five (Betts, Benintendi, Ramirez, Martinez and Bogaerts), but Jackie Bradley can be used on FanDuel with his low price tag.
