Pitchers

Top-tier |Nick Pivetta (BOS) $9,600 @BAL
Over his last 3 starts, Pivetta is averaging over 15 points, his high strikeout ceiling against an average Baltimore team gives him the potential for a massive start. Should be in your DFS lineups.
Middle-tier | Kenta Maeda (MIN) $8,300 @DET
There are not many great options in this slate, but Maeda’s ceiling against a bottom feeder in Detroit means there is optimism for a solid optimism during his shaky start to the season.
Value-tier | Dane Dunning (TEX) $5,200 VS SEA
Dunning has been surprisingly super efficient this year as he has only one start with under 10 points (@CWS -6.0), against a bad Detroit team Dunning should look to have a solid floor with a high ceiling at his ridiculously cheap price.

Hitters

Bryant has had some massive games over the past few weeks, facing Tyler Anderson at home can only benefit one of the hottest hitters in the game. A 20+ point game seems extremely reasonable in this one.
Middle-tier | Willians Astudillo (MIN) $4,200 @DET
If La Tortuga is in the lineup for the Twins, he should be in your DFS lineups. He is an electric player who is great against lefties, getting a matchup against Matt Boyd should be all systems go for the Twins UTIL player.
Value-tier | Alex Verdugo (BOS) $3,900 @BAL
After a 3 hit performance in an 11 run output against Baltimore, Verdugo is a solid cheap play with a great floor in a fantastic matchup.

Stacks
BOS Lineup vs Orioles
Boston is as hot as anyone right now, Orioles pitching is not.
MIN righties vs Matt Boyd
Twins right handed hitters are some of the best in the league, and can really light up the scoreboard on any given day. Facing a bad team in Detroit gives them more opportunities to do damage.
