MLB DFS Picks: Top Stacks for Tuesday, April 22nd
Opto% Stack
LA Dodgers at Shota Imanaga
The Los Angeles Dodgers emerge as a strong MLB DFS stack today against Shota Imanaga, buoyed by the best optimal stack rate and stack rating in projections. They also rank impressively in Value%, landing the 7th spot. Their implied run total sits at a promising 4.35 runs, suggesting potential offensive success.
The Dodgers’ right-handed batters, particularly Mookie Betts and Will Smith, are in a good spot to exploit Imanaga’s vulnerability to power from righties. Betts, with his commendably low strikeout rate, stands out as a top play, making the most of any slight advantage in wind at Wrigley Field, which favors batters.

Value% Stack
Minnesota Twins vs. Davis Martin
The Minnesota Twins position themselves as a standout MLB DFS stack today against Davis Martin. Garnering the 5th-best optimal stack rate and an impressive 2nd-best Value% in projections. With an implied run total of 5.32 runs, the Twins are in a spot to capitalize on Martin’s deficiencies.
While their individual bats may not appear intimidating on their own, their affordability combined with solid contact ability and patient plate discipline makes them great choices. Byron Buxton emerges as the cornerstone of this stack strategy, with his hitting prowess guiding the lineup’s potential. Emphasizing positional and salary considerations, the Twins’ lineup can outmaneuver Martin’s even splits, ultimately offering significant value and upside.
