Blue Jays leadoff man Marcus Semien ($3,100) can do some damage in an extreme hitter’s park in Boston. Semien already has 13 homers and eight steals on the season. He’s got a high floor batting .289 atop the lineup, making him a strong cash game play or a key piece of a Toronto stack. Opposing starter Garrett Richards has a 6.38 ERA in Fenway Park this year, so consider other high upside bats in Vladimir Guerrero Jr ($4,300), Bo Bichette ($3,500), and Teoscar Hernandez ($2,800) to go with him.

Jacob deGrom, SP: $12,000 – There’s not much to say about deGrom’s domination this season that hasn’t already been said. With a 45.4% K-rate and a 0.62 ERA he is easily the top starter on the slate. However, an expensive price tag means that he must be paired with value bats and discount stacks.
Tyler Mahle, SP: $8,500 – If you’re eyeing some stacks that just aren’t going to be affordable with a pricey starting pitcher, look at Tyler Mahle. He’s lined up for a strong start against the Rockies, who are an abysmal lineup on the road with a .253 wOBA. Mahle has pitched well with a 3.36 FIP and a 28.2% K-rate.
Daniel Vogelbach, 1B: $2,500– Vogelbach has three homers in the last week and will bat second for the Brewers against a right-handed pitcher in Chase De Jong. De Jong has a career 6.85 ERA and a 1.96 HR/9.
Rafael Devers, 3B: $3,600– Devers is crushing righties this year with a .285/.343/.633 line and faces Ross Stripling, owner of a 4.71 ERA. He’s got high upside for both runs and RBI in the Red Sox lineup.
Carlos Correa, SS: $3,800 – The Astros are a top stack option against Matt Shoemaker, who has a disastrous 7.28 ERA. Correa has been on fire over the last 30 days, batting .355 with six homers.
Nelson Cruz, OF: $3,300 – Cruz is a power upside play in GPP tournaments with 11 home runs batting cleanup for the Twins, including a walk-off last night.
Eddie Rosario, OF: $2,800 – Rosario is batting .316 over the last two weeks and is against one of a weak starter Justin Dunn. Dunn has a 4.58 FIP, so consider using Rosario along with his Cleveland teammates.
Kyle Tucker, OF: $3,200 – Tucker is one of the most affordable members of an Astros stack and is batting .330 over the last month.
