Pitchers 7/24 ⚾️💪

MacKenzie Gore vs SEA 4.1 runs: Mr. Enigmatic is facing the M's, who are much better against RHPs. The projected lineup has four hitters with high-strikeout potential (HKC) and only Julio Rodriguez has provided any sort of consistency against southpaws. Gore has just two outings with 20+ DKFP in his last nine, so buyer beware.

Logan Webb vs LAA 4.0 runs: The ground ball artist has failed to clear 20 DKFPs in his last trio of tilts, though he did have 26+ in four of the preceding five. Having Mike Trout and Jorge Soler available is helpful for the Halos, though Jo Adell has been about as lost as Adele at the plate in same-handed matchups and the bottom-third of the lineup is dreadful on good days.

Bryce Miller at TEX 3.8 runs: Miller is the only pitcher assigned a five-figure cap hit on both DK/FD, though he has earned it with career-highs across the board. There are not many easy strikeouts from the Rangers, though the team has not been able to be effective with Corey Seager sidelined for much of the season, ranking in the bottom-10 for runs scored and most power metrics.

Joey Cantillo at TBR 3.8 runs: There has been progress with Cantillo's production this season, though it is more of a two steps forward, one step back situation. He has just enough strikeout potential to be interesting for tournaments and there is DFS upside available from the back half of the Tampa lineup.

Trey Yesavage at BOS 4.7 runs: That is a scary team total, though the $8.0k DK salary is a little forgiving and while he has one major mound meltdown in his last four starts, the other three were 20+ DKFPs.

Top Stacks 7/24 ⚾️🎇

MIN vs LHP Jacob Lopez 5.3 runs: It is rare that both Byron Buxton and Ryan Jeffers are available at the same time. The additional gift tonight is first pitch temperatures around 80 degrees, with 60% humidity and a 10-15mph breeze to left. That bodes well for the RHBs and while there are not many other fierce hitters from the Twins, the never ending wave of righties is filled with discount dandies at a variety of positions.

ATH at RHP Zebby Matthews 4.8 runs: Even with the A's missing several key hitters due to injuries, the projected top-five has the ingredients for one-offs, through a full-stack. Across his last three starts, Matthews has put together just under 5 DKFPs in total.

CWS vs RHP Spencer Arrighetti 4.8 runs: The Regression Monster has finally addressed the success of Arrighetti and while his strong K-rate does appear sticky, he is seeing normalization with his BABIP, LOB% and hit sequencing. While he has a pair of one-run outings in his last five starts, he has suffered 22 ERs in the other three. The ChiSox proffer plenty of power with Colson Montgomery and Munetaka Murakami joined by veteran Andrew Benintendi, leadoff man Sam Antonacci and budding bopper Miguel Vargas.

STL vs RHP Rhett Lowder 4.5 runs: The Redbirds are not flashy, but they are facing Lowder who has single-digit DKFPs in 6 of 7 games and the Cinci bullpen is not a deterrent. Focus on the top-five as secondary mini-stacks that will provide tournament differentiation.
