DFS Lineup Stacks to Target on DraftKings

Colorado Rockies vs Ariel Miranda

The Rockies are always an elite option at home, as they are averaging 5.6 runs per game in Colorado this season. They also have an great .807 OPS through 26 home starts. They get a matchup against Miranda, who has struggled with a 6.08 ERA and 2.7 HR/9 on the road this season. The Rockies are -132 favorites in a game set at 11 runs, and they're the best offense on the slate.

Tampa Bay Rays vs Nick Martinez

The Rays are an offense that will likely fly under the radar tonight. They come with elite upside, though, and they get a great matchup against Martinez. He has struggled with a 4.69 ERA this season, and Tampa Bay is currently a -115 favorite in a game set at 10 runs. They're a sneaky tournament stack on this slate.

 

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider on DraftKings

Chris Sale - at CWS ($13,400)

Sale has been throwing at an elite level this season, as he enters this game with a 5-2 record, 2.34 ERA, and 12.5 K/9 through 10 starts. He has scored at least 22 fantasy points in each of those starts, including a 41 fantasy point performance against the Blue Jays. He gets a great matchup against his former team, and Sale is a -173 favorite in a game set at only 7.5 runs. He can safely be used in all leagues.

Robbie Ray - at PIT ($9,600)

Ray has struggled at home this season, but he has a 3-2 record, 0.81 ERA, and 11.6 K/9 through five road starts. He gets a good matchup against the Pirates, who have struggled offensively this season. They will also be playing in a pitcher friendly stadium. Ray is a -106 favorite in a game set at 7.5 runs, and he can be used in all leagues.

 

DFS Infielders to Consider on DraftKings

Catcher (C)

Devin Mesoraco - at TOR ($2,900)

Mesoraco isn't the safest option on the board, but he is cheap and comes with great upside for his position. He comes with good power, as 31% of his hits have gone for extra-bases this season. He gets a good matchup against J.A. Happ, and Mesoraco can be used as a salary relief option in tournaments.

First Base (1B)

Chris Davis - vs NYY ($3,800)

Davis is another high upside player that has struggled this season. He has been a better hitter at home this season, and he gets a solid matchup against Luis Severino, who struggled in his only start against the Orioles this season. Davis is strictly a GPP option.

Second Base (2B)

Devon Travis - vs CIN ($3,800)

Travis has caught fire recently, as he's hitting over .400 with surprising power over his last 10 games. He also comes with good speed, and gets an good matchup against Asher Wojciechowski. Travis is still fairly cheap, and he's a great option in all leagues.

Shortstop (SS)

J.T. Riddle - vs PHI ($2,600)

Riddle continues to enjoy a solid season, and he's hitting over .300 with solid power over his last 10 games. He has been fairly consistent, and he has displayed tremendous upside over that span. He gets a decent matchup against Vince Velasquez, and Riddle can be used as a salary relief option in all leagues.

Third Base (3B)

Nolan Arenado - vs SEA ($5,400)

Arenado hasn't had the season many people were expecting, but he has still been a consistent player with elite upside. He has dominated left-handed pitching throughout his career, and he gets a great matchup against Ariel Miranda at home. Arenado is a must start in a Colorado stack.

 

DFS Outfielders to Consider on DraftKings

Corey Dickerson - at TEX ($4,800)

Dickerson has been enjoying an elite season, and he's hitting nearly .350 with great power over his last 10 games. He has also been a better option away from home this season, and Dickerson gets a good matchup against Nick Martinez. He can be used in all leagues.

Max Kepler - vs HOU ($4,200)

Kepler has looked good recently, as he is hitting nearly .300 with a great combination of power and speed over his last 10 games. He has displayed elite upside over that span, and Kepler gets a good matchup against Mike Fiers tonight. Kepler is a high upside option that can also be used in cash games on this slate.
