Boston Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox are on our radar for today’s MLB DFS action. They’re facing off against Clarke Schmidt, who has struggled on the road this season. Schmidt’s 5.29 ERA and 4.58 xFIP away from home make him a prime target. Left-handed hitters have particularly feasted on him, with a .371 OBP and .504 slugging against them. Here’s why you should consider stacking the Red Sox:

Boston ranks 12th in wRC+ (103) against right-handed pitchers in 2023.
At home, they boast a ninth-ranked wRC+ (109) this season.
Rafael Devers ($3,900) is the centerpiece of this stack, with a .382 wOBA and 138 wRC+ in the second half.

Veterans like Justin Turner ($3,500) and Alex Verdugo ($3,300) provide solid support.
Consider adding Masataka Yoshida ($3,400) or Triston Casas ($3,200) for a robust lineup.

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been scoring big in their recent games, making them an attractive stack option. They’re up against Pedro Avila, who has shown vulnerability when starting. While Avila has a decent overall season, his recent starts have been shaky. Here’s why the Dodgers are a strong choice:

Mookie Betts ($4,400) is back in the lineup and has had a fantastic second half with 12 home runs and a .466 wOBA. Max Muncy ($3,400) offers power and value with 34 home runs and a .282 ISO.
You can round out your Dodgers stack with Freddie Freeman ($4,200), Will Smith ($3,400), Chris Taylor ($3,000), or James Outman ($2,800).

Mets vs. Diamondbacks

The matchup between the Mets and Diamondbacks presents an interesting stacking opportunity. While Citi Field can suppress offensive numbers, Zach Davies‘s struggles make this a favorable choice. Here’s why you should consider this stack:

Zach Davies has a 5.34 ERA over the last three seasons and an 8.38 ERA in away games in 2023.
Lefties have hit .277 against him, while righties have batted .297.
Pete Alonso, Brandon Nimmo, and Jeff McNeil offer solid options in this stack.

Chicago Cubs

The Chicago Cubs get a boost from playing at Coors Field and facing Kyle Freeland, who struggles at home. Freeland has a 5.05 ERA at home this year and has allowed 1.60 HR/9. Here’s why the Cubs are a compelling choice:

Nico Hoerner provides speed and batting average, making him a valuable addition.
Dansby Swanson has consistently shown power against lefties.
Suzuki has been hot recently and can contribute to your lineup.

Astros vs. Athletics

The Houston Astros are taking on Mason Miller, a rookie pitcher for the Athletics. While Miller has been impressive, the Astros’ lineup has the potential to capitalize on his inexperience. Here’s why you should consider stacking the Astros:

Yordan Alvarez ($4,100) is on fire, posting three home runs, nine hits, and eight RBIs in his last five games. Kyle Tucker ($3,500) is a versatile player who can contribute in various ways.
Jose Altuve ($4,200), Alex Bregman ($3,600), Chas McCormick ($3,500), and Jeremy Pena ($2,700) round out a strong Astros lineup.
