Top Pitchers To Target
Shohei Ohtani- Fanduel did a great job pricing up Ohtani for this matchup as he is 11k which kind of makes him out of play tonight but on Draftkings he is 9.2K which is alot more playable. The Rockies are a bad offense when they are away from Coors as their batting avg as a team drops well below .275 and they strikeout over 25% of the time. We have Ohtani projected for 1.35 strikeouts per inning so this sets up for a great matchup for him. Ohtani has struggled with his control lately but if he can find his command early tonight we are projecting for over 8 strikeouts. The Rockies also have the lowest implied run total in our model as well at 3.84 runs tonight.
Mike Minor- This play may be uncomfortable for many players tonight but he has shown alot of progressing this month. The White Sox are known to smash left handed pitching but tonight we are way under on the White Sox compared to Vegas. We have them projected for .33 runs less than Vegas and also Minor leads our model with the highest shark rating tonight. Very risky cash game play but I love the upside he brings tonight in tournaments as he is by far my favorite pitcher on both sites.
German Márquez- On the other side of the LAA/COL game we can’t forget about Marquez as he gets a huge ballpark boost going into Angel Stadium tonight. Marquez is a great ground ball pitcher that has upside as well in the strikeout column. He is ranked third in our model behind the two guys listed above but he is firmly in play especially on Draftkings where is priced at 8.4K.

Top Stacks To Target
Toronto Blue Jays- After two home series in a row back in Toronto the Blue Jays are now back on the road going into Fenway Park which is one of the best hitter ballparks in the league. We have them projected to score .75 more runs then Vegas tonight and they lead our model as the top stack to choose from on both Fanduel and Draftkings. The Blue Jays can score runs in bunches and tonight they get Nick Pivetta on the mound a guy that gives up ALOT of hard contact. Fire up the Jays tonight with confidence.
Boston Red Sox- On the other side of this game we can’t forget about the Red Sox who get a very beatable matchup against the rookie Thomas Hatch, We have them projected for 6.1 runs tonight which is in line with Vegas. Ownership will be very concentrated on the Red Sox tonight so if stacking them up in tournaments feel free to be different by playing the bottom of the lineup. Also game stacking this game as well is very much in play.
Cincinnati Reds- By far my favorite leverage stack of the night on both sites. We are way higher on this game than Vegas as we have this game projected for almost 10 runs and most sportsbooks are at 8 runs. Majority of our love is on the Reds side as they have the better matchup on paper going against Hendricks. This season the Reds have struggled with high velocity pitches. High velocity and Hendricks do not mix well as his fast ball only tops out usually around 90-92 mph. We expect alot of hard contact tonight from both sides of the plate. The Reds are a great low owned stack tonight!!
