Christian Yelich ($3,500) and the Brewers are a can’t miss stack on tonight’s slate as they take on Eli Morgan, who has a 5.48 ERA and a 2.00 HR/9. Yelich is in a great spot for runs and RBI batting third for Milwaukee, and he can be played along with cheap high-upside bats in Eduardo Escobar ($3,400) and Rowdy Tellez ($2,300). Many of these guys are also worth mixing into your cash lineup – particularly Kolten Wong ($3,500), who is batting .283 atop the lineup. In whatever contests you are playing, you will want to consider building around these bats.

Robbie Ray, SP: $11,200 – Ray has a legit case as the American League’s Cy Young this year, striking out 32.3% of batters with a 2.60 ERA. It’s unclear if his pants, which look like they have been shrink-wrapped around his legs, are the reason for his success. Regardless, Ray should dominate the Orioles in this start and cruise to a win.
Ian Anderson, SP: $7,800 – Anderson has a lot of upside at a low price in this matchup with the Marlins. Miami strikes out a ton against righties, at 25.4% of the time, and they have just a .294 wOBA that ranks them third-lowest in all of baseball. Anderson looked a bit shaky coming off of the injured list, but this is a good spot to buy low.
Bobby Bradley, 1B: $2,600 – Bradley is a GPP tournament power flier, as he’s a home run or bust play. He can also be paired in a Cleveland stack with fellow slugger Franmil Reyes ($3,300) as both are very affordable. Their strikeout tendencies are mitigated against Adrian Houser, who only strikes out 18.2% of hitters.
Ketel Marte, 2B/OF: $3,800 – It’s not a very large sample, but Ketel Marte is running absurdly hot against left-handed pitching this year, batting .413 with a 1.235 OPS. He’s crushed all lefties throughout his career and faces Marco Gonzales, who has a 5.41 FIP.
Josh Donaldson, 3B: $3,100– The Twins are in a big spot against Daniel Lynch, who has been hammered for a 5.29 ERA in his first 11 career starts. Donaldson has a 130 wRC+ against left-handed pitching this season.
Bo Bichette, SS: $4,000 – Bichette is batting .345 in the last two weeks and now gets to feast on the disastrous Baltimore pitching staff in a hitter-friendly park.
Mitch Haniger, OF: $3,400 – Haniger has 12 home runs in only 187 plate appearances against lefties this year while opposing starter Madison Bumgarner has a 1.69 HR/9 since joining Arizona.
Joey Gallo, OF: $2,400 – Gallo is currently mired in a miserable slump, but he’s still got major home run upside in a strong Yankees lineup. He’s worth consideration in tournaments coming in at nearly the minimum price.
I’m Only Happy When It Rains
There should not be any weather to worry about tonight.
Doing Lines In Vegas
The Reds are a nice play at -120 with Tyler Mahle pitching.
