MLB DFS Picks: Top Stacks for Wednesday, September 24th
Opto% Stack
Seattle Mariners vs. Colorado Rockies (Tanner Gordon)
The Seattle Mariners offer an excellent MLB DFS stack opportunity today against Tanner Gordon, supported by the best optimal stack rate, best stack rating, and 7th-best Value% in projections, with an implied run total of 4.92 runs. Unlike McCade Brown, who recently displayed high strikeout ability, Gordon lacks similar prowess, evidenced by his 18.6% strikeout rate—a figure consistent with his minor league performance.
Gordon’s skill set revolves around control but lacks the necessary components to effectively suppress Seattle’s potent lineup, making him susceptible to Seattle’s power hitters. The Mariners offense shines, particularly against pitchers delivering hittable strikes, with the top seven batters maintaining an ISO above .175 against RHP.
Cal Raleigh serves as a priority, but the lineup’s depth allows for flexible stacking, enabling strategic configurations around players like Eugenio Suarez, Jorge Polanco, and Dominic Canzone on DraftKings. Additional value can be found with Randy Arozarena and Josh Naylor on FanDuel.

Value% Stack
Houston Astros at Athletics (Luis Severino)
The Houston Astros present a solid MLB DFS stack opportunity against Luis Severino, highlighted by the 2nd-best optimal stack rate, 3rd-best stack rating, and best Value% in projections, with an implied run total of 4.72 runs. Their affordable pricing and favorable hitting conditions enhance their appeal in today’s slate.
While Luis Severino has demonstrated the ability to limit hard contact and power, the Astros’ potential comes from their capacity to capitalize on balls in play. With the additional factor of a potentially vulnerable bullpen, Houston’s lineup maintains its viability, particularly through strategic stacking.
Emphasizing left-handed hitters such as Jesus Sanchez and Zach Cole alongside Christian Walker can optimize the stack, aligning with potential matchup advantages.
Overall, the Astros’ affordability and potential ballpark advantages make them a valuable stack choice.
