MLB DFS Lineup Advice Today
Wednesday night brings us a relatively large 11-game slate on both FanDuel and DraftKings starting at 7:05 PM ET. Similar to last night, this is a packed slate with a game in Coors Field, along with red hot sluggers Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani in good matchups. The pitching options are a bit better than last night as well, so we’ll have some decisions to make.
Let’s sort through the slate and figure out what to do with our DFS lineups.
Top MLB DFS Picks for DraftKings & FanDuel
STACKS
Top Overall Stack: Colorado Rockies
Implied Run Total: 5.02 (4th)
Projected Total Ownership: 63% (FD) / 61% (DK)
It’s a difficult call for the top overall stack today, with the Brewers carrying the highest implied run total in Coors Field, the Dodgers in a very good spot at home as -200 favorites, and other teams in good hitting environments as well. I’ll take the Colorado Rockies for the lower prices and lower pOWN% compared to some of the pricier teams, facing Milwaukee rightie, Colin Rea. The Rockies have been hitting better lately, ranking 10th in ISO and 13th in SLG% over the past 30 days, compared to 13th in ISO and 18th in SLG% for the season.
Ryan McMahon is my top bat for the Rockies, with a .207 ISO and .348 wOBA vs. RHP since the start of last season and a career .228 ISO vs. RHP at home. Nolan Jones is another bat I’m very interested in – hoping he hits higher than 8th in the order – with a .226 ISO and .368 wOBA vs. RHP since the start of last year.
