Welcome back, everyone! This MLB Top Stacks article will be a daily Article here at DFS Army, where I will do my best to highlight my top offenses to target each day for Fanduel and Draftkings. In the list below the MLB Top Stacks, I will also list my Top5 at each position to give you more ideas on how to construct other stacks today.
If you have any questions hit me up in the DFS Army VIP chat shoot me a DM @CeeGee and we can chat one-on-one about your process.
I appreciate you taking time out of your day to check out the article 🤟❤💯
🇺🇸 MLB Top Stacks September 17th 🇺🇸
(click pics for larger view)
I use this sheet daily to help me identify top stacks on each slate
I’ve included the RAW number to show you the number that is being Ranked. This is the resulting number from my formula each day and should help illustrate exactly how much separation there is from team to team on the list. Some days there are very clear teams ranked in the Top 1 or 2. Other days they are grouped much tighter.
I’ve added a new Leverage Column, which is simply the Projection (minus) the Ownership. In theory, this should help us see who we can target at lower ownership and gain leverage on the field.
NOTE – Coors Field slate today and I think it’s a solid day to stack both teams in Coors. I won’t mention them specifically below, but just know virtually everyone is in play in that game tonight. In tourney’s I’ll always be underweight to Coors, that’s just how I play it, but if you wanna go there, by all means, go for it.
Twins
- Ross Detwiler enters tonight’s game with a 5.18 xFIP and a 15.9% k rate overall. Against lefties, he has allowed a 299/237 woba/iso with a 38% hard contact rate and only a 15.9% strikeout rate. Against righties, he’s been even worse, allowing a 429/279 woba/iso with a 40% hard contact rate and just a 16% strikeout rate. Mitch Garver (free square on Fanduel) has a 471/417 woba/iso with a 55% hard contact rate vs lefties this year. Nelson Cruz (455/442/59%) and Miguel Sano (380/309/54%) are my next two favorites here and I’ll mix and match the rest of the Twins around these 3 tonight.
Indians
- Zach Reininger hasn’t pitched much this season, only 43 appearances vs lefties and 75 vs righties. That being said, in the small sample size he has pitched, he’s been god awful. Entering tonight he has a 6.59 xFIP with a 12.7% k rate overall. Against lefties, he has allowed a 533/452 woba/iso with a 39% fly-ball rate and a 36% hard contact rate. His numbers vs righties are better, but, still pretty awful. Against righties, he has allowed a 438/414 woba/iso with a 50% hard contact rate. Francisco Lindor (373/267/44%), Carlos Santana (374/250/41%) are my 2 top Indians here with Yasiel Puig (322/207/39%) not too far behind.

LESSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOO!!🤟❤💯
Braves
- Vince Velasquez has electric stuff from time to time but he really hasn’t flashed it much this season. Entering tonight he has a 4.81 xFIP with a decent 24.9% k rate on the season. Against lefties, he has allowed a 352/246 woba/iso with a 42% fly-ball rate and a 45% hard contact rate. His numbers against righties are relatively the same, as he has allowed a 349/239 woba/iso with a 48% fly-ball rate and a 52% hard contact rate. Despite him having a decent strikeout rate, I’ll take my chances with some Braves stacks against him tonight. Freddie Freeman (427/291/51%), Josh Donaldson (389/279/48%) and Ronald Acuna (368/221/45%) are my building blocks for my Braves stacks tonight.

🇺🇸 Batter Rankings 09/17 🇺🇸
These rankings are not site-specific and are intended to give you a solid pool of players to build your lineups from. I’m going to use the standard positions, Catcher through Outfield in these rankings so be aware of that if you’re constructing teams on Draftkings where some players can play multiple positions.
I will use the 😍 ADORE feature in the MLB Domination Station to increase the projection of each of these players by 15%. Doing this will allow me to get MORE of them throughout all of my lineups.
