Top Stack
New York Mets vs Colorado Rockies in Coors Field
Coors Field is always going to be the top stacking option when it is on the slate especially a slate that has just seven games. These two teams combined for 18 runs last night and tonight the Vegas game total is set at 11.5 runs with the Rockies having an implied run total of 6.5 and the Mets having an implied run total of 5.4. The Mets are sending righty Seth Lugo to the mound who was knocked around for five runs on eight hits over five innings during his last start. The Rockies are pitching Chad Bettis who has allowed five earned runs in each of his last four starts and has a 7.76 ERA in Coors this season. All hitters are in play up and down the lineups tonight.
Washington Nationals vs Andrew Cashner
Cashner is 2-8 with a 4.98 ERA and will be coming off the DL from a back injury to make this start tonight against the Nationals. The Nationals lineup is finally at full strength with the returns of Adam Eaton and Daniel Murphy which makes them ever more dangerous even with Bryce Harper hitting just .213. Left-handed hitters have hit seven home runs and own an OPS of .874 of Cashner this season while right-handed hitters have his six home runs and own an OPS of .944. Washington hung nine runs on Baltimore last night and have an implied run total of five tonight but I would be willing to bet the over on that one.
Top Options: Bryce Harper , Adam Eaton , Trea Turner , Juan Soto
Secondary Options: Anthony Rendón , Daniel Murphy , Mark Reynolds
Contrarian Stack
Texas Rangers vs Jakob Junis
After a solid start to his season Junis has started to get knocked around, especially over his last two starts in which he has allowed 12 earned runs and six home runs over 10.2 innings. The Rangers offense is back to full strength with Elvis Andrus and Adrián Béltre in the middle of their lineup. Both Nomar Mazara and Shin-Soo Choo are on fire right now and should be part of any Rangers stack tonight. The homer prone Junis makes for a nice pitcher to stack against in GPPs.
Top Options: Adrián Béltre . Nomar Mazara , Shin-Soo Choo , Elvis Andrus
Secondary Options: Joey Gallo , Delino DeShields , Jurickson Profar
