DraftKings MLB featured picks and lineup for Sunday May 6

Stacking

Stacking to get multiplier points, so to speak, is hard to come by on Sunday’s slate, especially with the three aces on the bump. Mini-stacks seem to be the way to go, featuring two players from a lineup. An example would be the red-hot duo of Jose Ramirez and Francisco Lindor.

The one stack that looks promising is a Twins stack, yet again, against James Shields. Brian Dozier should anchor it with Joe Mauer, Logan Morrison, Eduardo Escobar and Eddie Rosario all in play.

Even the Nationals are an intriguing option against Jake Arrieta, who has been solid to start the season. Trea Turner, Matt Adams, Anthony Rendon and Bryce Harper could make up a pricier stack.
