The Jock MKT Starter Kit: MLB Picks | Aug. 12
To begin, enter the MLB Daily Market when the Initial Public Offering (IPO) phase is underway. Leading up until the start of the first game, bid on players you are interested in acquiring on the open market. Is there a player who you consider a favorite to finish at the top of the rankings? Invest as much or as little as you want in their fantasy performance, with shares beginning at $1 and ranging all the way up to $25. See potential injury news that could open up an opportunity for another player to acquire fantasy points? Make speculative bids for shares of the backup, hoping for that news to break after the IPO phase is complete.
The next part of the game occurs during live trading. Unlike regular MLB DFS where your plays are locked in, you can buy and sell shares of players while the games are happening based on their production and where you could see them finishing amongst the field. Track as current points, projected points, and live price for each player is updated in real-time, allowing you to track the action and invest in an instant to account for news. Trading can be done all the way up until the final pitch of the night’s final game.
At the end of the games, each player share is paid out based on their final rankings of fantasy points amongst the field. If the shares you own are worth more than what you paid, you win money. For more information, check out the Jock MKT website.
Jock MKT MLB Picks Tonight
Buster Posey, C, San Francisco Giants
A good strategy for Jock MKT is to look for those fast risers at the right time, and Posey certainly fits the bill. He has three straight multi-hit games, going 7-for-12 with two home runs and three walks over that span. Posey has only faced Rockies’ left-hander Austin Gomber five times, but he has two hits (one double) and one walk. It has been all systems go for Posey against lefties, as he has .394/.463/.620 slash numbers and a 1.082 OPS in 80 plate appearances.
Adam Frazier, 2B, San Diego Padres
Frazier ranks as one of the top value plays on tonight’s slate. It is certainly intriguing that his stock has not risen that much considering he has .417/.440/.458 slash numbers over the last six games. While the power numbers are not there, he is getting on base almost half of the time. That power could get a surge tonight, as Diamondbacks right-hander Taylor Widener will be on the mound. Widener has allowed 11 home runs in 10 starts (46 innings) this season.
George Springer, OF, Toronto Blue Jays
Springer ranks atop the Awesemo expert projections for the night games. He has been on fire of late, with .333/.386./.872 slash numbers and 10 extra-base hits (five homers) over the last 10. The selections at night are slim pickings, but he can excel in this tough matchup against Angels right-hander Shohei Ohtani.
