MLB DFS Picks: Top Stacks for Monday, July 28th

Opto% Stack

Texas Rangers at Los Angeles Angels (Jack Kochanowicz)

The Texas Rangers are an enticing MLB DFS stack opportunity against Jack Kochanowicz, featuring the 2nd-best optimal stack rate, the best stack rating, and the 5th-best Value% according to projections. With an implied run total of 4.96 runs, the Rangers have solid run-scoring potential.

Kochanowicz’s ground ball tendencies, while historically a concern, have been moderate this season, particularly against left-handed batters, and his strikeout rate remains low. This sets up an ideal environment for power hitters like Corey Seager and Evan Carter, positioning them as key players to leverage Kochanowicz’s vulnerabilities.

Joc Pederson also emerges as a solid choice, well-suited for this matchup given Kochanowicz’s profile.

Overall, their lineup’s depth and favorable matchup dynamics make the Rangers an appealing DFS stack.

Value% Stack

Boston Red Sox at Minnesota Twins (Simeon Woods Richardson)

The Boston Red Sox offer a solid MLB DFS stack opportunity today against Simeon Woods Richardson, backed by the 5th-best optimal stack rate, 6th-best stack rating, and 3rd-best Value% in projections. With an implied run total of 4.75 runs, the Red Sox are positioned for a potentially fruitful offensive performance.

Woods Richardson’s recent real-life success masks underlying metrics that suggest he’s vulnerable, particularly showing reverse splits power tendencies. This opens the door for the Red Sox to exploit these inefficiencies, making Alex Bregman and Trevor Story key ingredients in building effective stacks.
