DraftKings MLB featured picks and lineup for Wednesday May 9

STACKS

There are several lineups to target on Wednesday. The first would be the obvious stack of the Mariners against Jaime Garcia, who they have hit well historically. The same could be said for the Blue Jays against Wade LeBlanc.

A contrary stack could be the Padres against Gio Gonzalez, a high-priced pitcher. Then there’s the rivalry, that features a potential for home runs and several players who have hit Rick Porcello or Masahiro Tanaka well over their careers.

Stacking the Diamondbacks against the Dodgers seems to be a great move, despite a low run projection. Arizona is scoring 5.4 runs per game against their division rivals in 11 games this season. There are also several cheap, GPP plays on the Dodgers to consider.
