DFS MLB Fanduel Lineup Advice 4/9/16

Good Morning , and it’s a great one today on a Saturday ! Depending were you’re at , The birds are chirping and the sun is out  ! Tonight on the “Main Slate” we have a 9 game slate . So let’s jump right into it .

Top Ace On The Diamond – 
Carlos Martinez 
Price: $9,900 
Vegas: -140
K% : 24.4%  (2015) 

The Man was an absolute beast last year , Martinez is at a rate  54.5% GB% . K rate percentage 24.4 % . It was a great season for him til he got hurt . I hate when injury ruin a player great season . Facing off vs Julio Tejeran  .  A weak pitcher that allows a lot of runs . I expect martinez to get his projection value 45-50 pt . ATL still not a great hitting team Martinez offer more K’s potential then Jamie Garcia did yesterday .

Value Pitcher On The Mound – 
Joe Ross 
Price:$6800
Vegas- -155
K%: 18.9%

Another hidden gem last year . He came last year and pitched for the Washington Nationals later in the season . I see him being a popular option in the main slate  due to his price . He has a high ceiling for that $6,800 dollar Price . I will target him as my value pitcher . Hope his slider is on and pray to the big guy Stanton swing and misses . The Marlins have some decent hitter but a lot of them swing and miss at two pitches fastball and Sliders .  Ross is projected by Vegas to win this game  -155 . Shows the potential they believe in him too .

Now Let’s get Into the Stacks  I’ll be targeting tonight .

3.

Tampa Bay Rays  vs Mike Wright

Vegas Team Total Runs :4.37
Team wOBA-  307
Team ISO –  0.145

• 1
  Logan Forsythe 2B R $3.3K 
• 2
  Logan Morrison 1B L $2.2K 
• 3
  Evan Longoria 3B R $3K 
• 4
  Corey Dickerson OF L $3.2K 
• 5
  Desmond Jennings OF R $2.5K 
• 6
  Brad Miller SS L $2.2K 
• 7
  Steve Souza OF R $3.4K 

This is their projected Starting line up, I usually look at the top 6 batter only . Although I listed 7 , I like Souza due to his HR/SB combo threat. Make sure to look up the starting line up before they lock .

2.
Houston Astros vs Willy Peralta 

Vegas Team Total Runs : 4.59
Team wOBA- 0.324
Team ISO –  0.188

• 1
  Jose Altuve 2B R $3.7K 
• 2
  George Springer OF R $3.6K 
• 3
  Carlos Correa SS R $4.9K 
• 4
  Colby Rasmus OF L $3K 
• 5
  Carlos Gomez OF R $3.2K 
• 6

  Luis Valbuena 3B L $2.4K 

  This is their projected Starting line up make sure to look into their starting line up before it locks .  I expect Free Willy  to allow some HR in this game . Correa and Springer are my favorite two to get that HR vs Willy Peralta .

  1.
  
  Baltimore Orioles vs Drew Smyly

  Vegas Team Total Runs : 4.13
  Team wOBA- 0.325
  Team ISO –  0.186

  • 1
    Joey Rickard OF R $2.5K 
  • 2
    Manny Machado 3B R 
  • 3
    Adam Jones OF R $3.1K 
  • 4
    Christopher Davis 1B L $3.7K 
  • 5
    Mark Trumbo OF R $3K 
  • 6
    Matt Wieters C S $2.8K 

  I actually expected a higher total . I think Isn’t projecting Adam Jones back in the line up . I expect him to be back . Baltimore line up is potent if they start out early . Chris Davis and Manny Machado are my two favorite hitter of this stack . This is their projected Starting line up make sure to look into their starting line up before it locks .

  That’s today main slate write up , good Luck . We will be back at it on tuesday slate !!

  Enjoy your saturday , I’m a open up a beer and some cracker jack to enjoy the games on this beautiful Saturday morning .
