I have created a new hitters model for stacks, and I will be using it starting tonight in my articles to provide the best plays possible. In my favorite targets under stacks are my batter ratings in order, I have them in my model, no changes. I am very excited as this will help us nail down not only what teams to stack up but what individual bats look the best.

Top MLB DFS Pitcher for DraftKings, FanDuel
Jacob Misiorowski, SP - MIL ($10.5K DK/$10.9K FD)
Jacob Misiorowski has been phenomenal this season, and tonight he gets an awesome matchup against the Padres. Mis will be pitching at home at American Family Field tonight, a place he has been phenomenal in so far in his career.
This season, Mis has a 2.39 xFIP, 39.5% K%, 17.1% SwStr%, 0.95 WHIP, and a 0.82 HR/9. He has a 1.44 xFIP and a 47.5% K% over his last two starts. This Padres team has been about as bad as you can get this season. They have a 22.7% K%, .677 OPS, and a 94 wRC+ against RHP in 2026. Over the L14 days, they have a 25.1% K%, .575 OPS, and a 65 wRC+.
The Padres are projected for the lowest implied run total tonight at 3.0 runs in my model. Mis has a 36.1% projected K% and is expected to strikeout 7.98 batters. He is my SP1 in all formats.
Top MLB DFS Stack for DraftKings, FanDuel
Miami Marlins (Model-Projected IRT of 5.9 runs) vs. Simeon Woods Richardson
Many people targeted the Marlins last night against Bailey Ober, but I think this is the premier spot for them in a matchup with Simeon Woods Richardson. My model thinks so, as the Marlins have the highest implied total on the slate at 5.9 runs.
SWR has struggled to say the least in 2026. He has pitched to a 5.76 xFIP, 1.72 WHIP, 1.85 HR/9, 44.6% FB%, and a 40.8% Hard Hit%. Over his last two starts, he has a 5.92 xFIP, 1.78 WHIP, and a 2.00 HR/9. His entire player card is red for me in my model.
The Marlins have been solid enough against RHP to fully stack tonight. They have a .715 OPS and a 100 wRC+ against the split this season, with a .708 OPS and a 98 wRC+ over the last 14 days. These factors include playing half their games in one of the toughest parks to hit in. I love this spot for the Marlins to put up a crooked number.
Favorite Targets: Connor Norby, Otto Lopez, Liam Hicks, Heriberto Hernandez, Javier Sanoja, Xavier Edwards
Top MLB DFS Hitter for DraftKings, FanDuel
Ian Happ, OF - CHC ($4.4K DK/$3.7K FD)
Ian Happ is my top bat on tonight's slate. He is the model of consistency year in and year out and has an elite ceiling in the right matchups. Tonight is that spot as JR Rithcie has allowed a .435 wOBA and a .236 ISO this season to LHH. Happ has a .400 wOBA and a .242 ISO this season against RHP and is red hot with a .445 wOBA and a .294 ISO over his last 47 PA.
