DFS Lineup Stacks to Target on DraftKings

Boston Red Sox versus Alex Robb

The Boston Red Sox are the best stack option on the board tonight over at DraftKings. This is an expensive stack, but well worth it. Right-handed Alex Robb is on the mound for the Tampa Bay Rays, and he allows 2.143 home runs per nine innings pitched. Thats the highest on the board. He also has a horrible 1.518 WHIP. Roster the Red Sox in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.

Also Consider: Cleveland Indians versus Matt Boyd; San Francisco Giants versus Antonio Senzatela

DFS Starting Pitchers to Consider on DraftKings

Carlos Carrasco, CLE vs DET ($8,800)

Carlos Carrasco has a great 9.631 SO/9 and 1.162 WHIP. He is allowing 1.276 home runs per nine innings pitched, and  while the Detroit Tigers do have a couple of power hitters, Carrasco should be able to keep run production to a minimum. He should easily pick up the win with Matt Boyd on the mound opposite of him. Carrasco is great in all leagues.

Gio Gonzalez, WSH vs PHI ($8,000)

Gio Gonzalez is a very high-upside tournament option. He has a 8.97 SO/9 and 1.373 WHIP. His WHIP is a little high, but he is only allowing 0.997 home runs per nine innings pitched. The Philadelphia Phillies strikeout 0.27 times per at-bat. That is one of the better offenses to attack from a fantasy perspective.

DFS Infielders to Consider on DraftKings

Catcher (C)

Austin Barnes, LAD vs ARI ($2,800)

Austin Barnes hit a home run last night, showing that he does have enough pop in his bat to go yard. He gets a good matchup tonight against Taijuan Walker. His ISO differential is decent at 0.06. Roster him in all leagues.

First Base (1B)

Trey Mancini, BAL at TOR ($2,900)

Trey Mancini did not play last night, but he is set to hit seventh in the batting order tonight. He has a great 0.224 ISO differential and 0.17 wOBA differential. His value is great. He can be used in all leagues against the left-handed J.A. Happ.

Second Base (2B)

Jose Ramirez, CLE vs DET ($4,100)

Jose Ramirez showed off his ridiculous power last night. He hit two home runs. Tonight, he gets a good matchup against left-hander Matt Boyd. The Cleveland Indians are a great stack. Ramirez is a big part of that stack.

Shortstop (SS)

Corey Seager, LAD vs ARI ($4,300)

Corey Seager hits from the left side of the plate, and Taijuan Walker is a right-handed pitcher. Seager has a decent 0.046 ISO differential and a fantastic 0.081 wOBA differential. He should be able to get on base a couple of times tonight.

Third Base (3B)

David Freese, PIT at CHC ($3,000)

David Freese is a very cheap option at the third base position. He provides quite a bit of value and will make rostering some of the more expensive pitching options much easier. His wOBA differential is a solid 0.09.

DFS Outfielders to Consider on DraftKings

Kirk Nieuwenhuis, MIL at CIN ($3,200)

Kirk Nieuwenhuis has a hard hit rate of 60 percent to start the season. He is a powerful batter hitting in Cincinnati. Cincinnati is a great ballpark for hitters, and Nieuwenhuis has a decent ISO differential of 0.035. He is a home run candidate.

Matthew Joyce, OAK vs HOU ($2,400)

Matthew Joyce is a very cheap option at the outfield position tonight. He is set to hit second, which means he will likely hit one more time than most of the batters at the bottom of the order. Charlie Morton has a high K-rate, but allows baserunners. Joyce does not need much to hit value.
