MLB DFS Picks: Top Stacks for Monday, June 9th
Opto% Stack
Atlanta Braves at Aaron Civale
The Atlanta Braves emerge as a top MLB DFS stack today against Aaron Civale, boasting the best optimal stack rate and stack rating while holding the 4th-best Value%. With an implied run total of 4.2 runs, they offer solid run-scoring potential.
Civale’s pitching profile, characterized by lower strikeout rates against righties and a tendency to allow fly balls, creates a prime opportunity for the Braves’ powerful lineup. Austin Riley and Matt Olson are excellent picks for their power-hitting ability. Equally, Ronald Acuna and Marcell Ozuna are compelling choices, each capable of exploiting Civale’s vulnerabilities.
For those interested in full-stack strategies, incorporating contact hitters like Drake Baldwin, Ozzie Albies, and Alex Verdugo can add depth. Whether opting for individual power bats or a comprehensive stack, the Braves present a strategic DFS powerhouse capable of delivering substantial returns against Civale today.

Value% Stack
Athletics at Yusei Kikuchi
The Oakland Athletics present an enticing MLB DFS stack option today against Yusei Kikuchi. With the 5th-best optimal stack rate, 8th-best stack rating, and the best Value%, they offer an intriguing balance of potential and cost-effectiveness.
Kikuchi’s recent struggles with control signal a prime chance for the Athletics lineup to succeed. Brent Rooker and Jacob Wilson headline the order, offering standout plays amidst less familiar faces. However, the team’s overall affordability makes them attractive, allowing DFS players to allocate more salary to premium pitching combos like Zack Wheeler / Chris Sale.
The prospect of Kikuchi’s regression enhances the Athletics’ appeal.
