Let’s get into it!
Stud:
Bryce Harper: Harper has been incredibly hot. He gets a matchup tonight with Logan Webb of the Giants and the wind is blowing out! Harper is one of my favorite spend-ups on today’s slate.
Trea Turner/Juan Soto: Love this matchup for the Nationals, Adam Wainwright is a gas can. Wainwright struggles to strike out batters and Turner has been red hot. Soto has yet to have that breakout game. They get a weather bump with the wind blowing out as well.
Value:
Matt Joyce: Leading off today for Phillies, Joyce has a lot of pop for sub 3k. We have so much value on this slate but Joyce stands out as a guy I want to be invested in.
Ehire Adrianza: Leadoff hitter for the Braves with Ronald Acuna out. He allows you to spend up at the pitching position today. With the Braves strong bats behind him, if he gets on base they will drive him home.
Stacks:
Phillies: Joyce-Segura-Harper-Realmuto-Miller
