Early Sample Lineup

P – Jose Berrios

C/1B – Wilmer Flores

2B – Asdrubal Cabrera

3B – Anthony Rendon

SS – Didi Gregorius

OF – Aaron Judge, Michael A. Taylor, Brett Gardner

Utility – Carlos Gomez

There’s always the possibility that a big time value pops up tomorrow when the lineup cards get turned in. For now, this lineup takes advantage of the lefty specialists on the Mets to fit in the bats from their crosstown rivals. Judge and Gregorius should do the bulk of the work here and if we can figure out a way to fit in that fourth bat at some point today, we just might do it. Hopefully Berrios doesn’t underwhelm as the chalk like Lance McCullers did yesterday.

Stacks to Consider – Yankees(vs. Baltimore), Nationals(vs. New York Mets), Diamondbacks(at St. Louis)

Main Sample Lineup

P – Gerrit Cole

C/1B – Kurt Suzuki

2B – Devon Travis

3B – Josh Donaldson

SS – Dansby Swanson

OF – Charlie Blackmon, Jesse Winker, Gerardo Parra

Utility – Adrian Beltre

Part of me thinks this is a little to similar to what we wound up playing yesterday. Not having a big enough piece of the Angels and/or A’s almost bit us last night at the very end. We only really got bailed out because Kole Calhoun stole a base in the eighth inning. Still, it’s hard to nitpick this one too much. Every player in the lineup is in a positive spot. It also is sort of playing with my mind that every time I’ve tried to hit with the A’s so far this year, it hasn’t worked. That’s not the healthiest attitude to have in DFS so we’ll see how this one evolves through the day. This is what happens when Coors is on the slate. You always feel like you might be underweight on it and it could ruin your night.

Stacks to Consider – Braves or Rockies, Pirates(vs. Cincinnati), A’s(at Los Angeles Angels)
