Pitchers

Early

Lucas Giolito (CWS) 9,900 v TB

Tarik Skubal (DET) 7,000 @ KC

Tyler Mahle (CIN) 9,400 @ MIL

Hard to pass on Skubal however i do like Giolito and Mahle more and couldn’t resist the challenge of finding bats to fit. Skubal is on a seven game stretch of quality starts averaging over 21 points during the span.

Aaron Civale (CLE) 8,900 v BAL

Jacob DeGrom (NYM) 11,000 v CHC

Cole, Kershaw, Wheeler, and even DeSclafani will draw big ownership. Picking the best duo will be critical to success. Ever see those screenshots of people asking whats next, well that’s where DeGrom’s picture belongs.

Jonathon Villar 4,300 (NYM) v CHC

Stacks

Early

Angles Hitters vs Cole Irvin (OAK)

Matt Stassi 3,800

Jared Walsh 4,800

Jose Iglesias 3,700

All in on Walsh and Iglesias but i do like Stephenson more than Stassi. Could also see a long shot Rockies stack being successful and sneaky, better for multi entering strategies.

Late

Mariners Hitters vs Bailey Ober (MIN)

Tom Murphy 3,700

Dylan Moore 2,600

Jake Fraley 3,700

I do like a Braves stack of Freeman, Albies, Riley, Heredia, but as of this writing have not fit them all into a line up. Heredia playing or not will be a deciding factor of my final lineup.

Closing

My goal is to consistently do one of these a week while improving on the quality as i go. I pay attention and play most days of the week. Life happens as well as a few summer vacations in the near future, so bare with me. Good Luck!
