MLB DFS Top Stacks: Wednesday, July 9th
MLB DFS is complex, which is why it helps to have data-driven tools at your disposal. That’s where we come in.
With some help from our Top Stacks tool, we can narrow down some of the stacks that are worth targeting for the upcoming MLB DFS slate. Our Top Stacks tool is powered by our MLB player projections that are available in our MLB optimizer, LineupHQ.
Also, don’t forget to check out our MLB weather page and MLB starting lineups leading up to lock. The last thing you want to do is stack up some teams that may get their game postponed or roster players who aren’t in the confirmed lineup.
MLB DFS Picks: Top Stacks for Wednesday, July 9th
Opto% Stack
New York Yankees vs. Seattle Mariners (Logan Evans)
The New York Yankees offer a premier MLB DFS stack opportunity against Logan Evans, reflected by their 3rd-best optimal stack rate, 2nd-best stack rating, and an implied run total of 5.2 runs. Following an explosive performance post-rain delay, the Yankees face a comparatively weaker pitcher in Evans, who presents modest strikeout rates of 16.8% against lefties and 18% against righties, along with average batted ball tendencies.
Aaron Judge stands out as the top bat on the slate, complemented by a robust mix of options including Jazz Chisholm, Ben Rice, Trent Grisham, Cody Bellinger, Austin Wells, Giancarlo Stanton, and Anthony Volpe. This depth and versatility enable flexible lineup construction, allowing players to fill positions with power at relatively affordable prices, especially outside of Judge and Chisholm.

Opto% Stack
Boston Red Sox vs. Colorado Rockies (Antonio Senzatela)
The Boston Red Sox are a solid MLB DFS stack today against Antonio Senzatela, reflected by their 5th-best optimal stack rate and 6th-best stack rating, with an implied run total of 5.96 runs.
The return of key players like Wilyer Abreu, who leads the team in ISO against righties, adds significant firepower to the lineup. Potentially regaining Masataka Yoshida further enhances their offensive capabilities, making the Red Sox an attractive stack option.
Abreu stands out as a priority play, both individually and within stacks, followed by players like Jarren Duran, Roman Anthony, and Abraham Toro. The lineup’s depth allows for flexibility in DFS roster construction, enabling players to align Boston bats with other selections seamlessly.
