MLB DFS Top Stacks 6/22 ⚾️🎇

Fire up the Coors Field Extravaganza where temperatures are in the upper-80s and there is a 10mph breeze to left-center.

BAL at LHP Sam Aldegheri 5.1 runs: The Batters of Birdland had a solid 20 runs at Dodger Stadium this weekend, winning the latter two tilts to take the series. The O's have not won four-straight all season, though that could change in Anaheim tonight and Tuesday. Aldegheri has struggled in The Show, with 31 BBs in 46.2 frames, with just 35 Ks. Look to the recognizable names for Baltimore.

MIL at RHP Brady Singer 5.2 runs: In 6 of 14 (43%) of his starts, Singer has failed to reach the 5th inning, despite averaging just over 91 pitches per game. The Brew Crew continues to be underrepresented in tournaments more often than not and the team has quietly moved into 3rd for runs scored on the season. Yes, the series @COL and in Las Vegas helped, but we are talking about facing a middling pitcher in the Great American SMALLpark. DK has boosted the cap hits for the stalwarts, though Garrett Mitchell, Sal Frelick and David Hamilton provide salary relief for stacks.

STL vs RHP Merrill Kelly 4.7 runs: Last year lefties put up a .206 ISO against Kelly, which was manageable since he was able to gain ground on same-handed batsmen. This year lefties are up to a .288 ISO and righties have dropped from a 24.6 K% to 17.2%, with a .193 ISO that is nearly double that of last year. Ride with the top five Redbirds in tournaments.

LAD at RHP Zebby Matthews 5.3 runs: The magical gyro-slider is good, but one pitch is unlikely to stem the blue wave tonight. Look to the usual suspects.

MLB DFS Pitchers 6/22 ⚾️💪

Dylan Cease vs HOU 3.7 runs: Sunday's PPD @CHC pushed Cease back a day, giving us a fun pitcher's duel in Toronto. Though 13 starts, the apex ace has a career high 13.6 K/9, while his 0.62 HR/9 is a career low. Most impressive is a 2.71 ERA, supported by a 3.04 xERA and 2.54 xFIP. He will need to keep the top-5 'Stros in check, but the final four represent potential 3-up, 3-down relief.

Hunter Brown at TOR 4.0 runs: After a 10 week absence due to a strained shoulder, which did include a 4 MiLB game ramp up, Brown notched 92 pitches against DET with 7 Ks in 5.2 IP. It is well documented that TOR is one of the toughest strikeout matchups for RHPs, though that should not dissuade savvy gamers from having Brown in their player portfolio tonight.

Kyle Bradish at LAA 4.1 runs: It was a rough start to the month with 10 ERs in 8 IP @TOR and vs SEA, though Bradish did get back on track Wednesday with 7 one-run frames in Seattle, with a hefty 12 Ks, matching his total from the preceding three games combined. The Halos are without 3 of their 5 best batsmen, which creates a more favorable matchup for opposing pitchers.

Gavin Williams at CHW 3.9 runs: This has been a chaotic season for Williams with four starts of 5+ ERs and eight with two or fewer and a trio of tilts with three runs. He has allowed 14 runs in 15.1 frames this month, but that includes two games against NYY and one in MIL. The strikeouts should be there, though he will need to mitigate the first four hitters who all have excellent power against right-handed hurlers, with strong plate discipline.
