Tequila & Bombs “Happy Cinco De Mayo “
Written By: Nate Kelly “DFSshrek”
The Bomb Sheet is used to help highlight MLB Players in Prime hitting spots. These players can be played on all sites depending on price and roster construction. There is always more upside added to these Players by incorporating them into stacks, but make sure to start your stacks with the players highlighted below.
Rays vs Orioles
Mike Zunino – DK $ 4000/ FD $2200/ Yahoo $12
Zunino will be seeing a FB Pitch thrown 52% of the time 66%HC, .ISO .519, wOBA .513 along with a high exit velocity as well. Look for him to make nice contact in a hitter’s park in BAL. Grabs a BOMB prediction of 17.4% vs LHP J. Means
Mariners Vs Indians
Edwin Encarnacion – DK $ 4900/ FD 3500/ Yahoo $14
E5 returns to Progressive Field today facing SP Anderson. Anderson RHP that throws his Fast ball and slider which both pitches E5 is averaging a wOBA .457 and .ISO 466. E5 also makes hard contact at 48% vs these types of pitches. His exit velocity around 97% as well. Look for E5 with double bomb potential today with a HR prediction of 19.3%
Royals vs Tigers
Ryan O’Hearn – DK $3400/ FD $2600/ Yahoo $10
The royals are in Detroit today facing an RHP that throws really only 2 pitches to LHB. Fast balls and cutters. O’Hearn mashes these 2 pitches and not talking a ground out to 1st base. 72% of these balls he hits Fly balls. He has a nice FB to HR averaging and gets a good Barrel speed on these hits. His wOBA .510 ISO .601 and 44% HC on these 2 pitches sets him up with a HR prediction of 14.9% in this game. There is some risk as O’Hearn has seen his SO % jump up from last season. His price on all sites makes him a cheap option for a Bomb
Braves Vs Marlins
Josh Donaldson – DK $$4800/ FD $3800/ Yahoo $19
Curtis Granderson – DK $3500/ FD $2700/ Yahoo $11
I am writing up two players here and I know at first glace what? No Acuna Matta? You don’t need me to tell you when that guy steps to the plate his bomb potential. Donaldson and Granderson both have HR% toady of 14.2%. Sure, this is a pitchers Park, but both are seeing a prime Pitching Matchup and could not get much better for them.
Nationals vs Phillies
J.T. Realmuto – DK $4500/ FD $3400/ Yahoo $16
J.T. will be one of the higher price Catchers today on all site. He is worth paying for today. He checks in with 5 Stars today and A HR% of 15.8%. RHP Sanchez likes to stick to really 2 pitches when facing RHBs. J.T. will be seeing a FB thrown 41% of the time at around 90 MPH in which he averages a wOBA .420 and ISO .306. He does not hit a lot of HC here, but he has serious power on both fastball and cutters thrown. Look for heavy production out of him today.
Red Sox Vs White Sox
Jackie Bradley Jr – DK $3000/ FD $ 2300/ Yahoo $7
I wanted to highlight someone here that’s not a big name in this game that was Popping for me here. Guaranteed Rate Park is one of the smaller parks in MLB and Bradley Jr has some power to be displayed in the matchup. This is not breaking news on bad Covey is and how good it is to target him with LHBs. Guy only throws one pitch really so Bradly Jr wOBA .488 and ISO .367 shows he has some power vs this pitch he will see 64% of the time. Low Whiff% and 46% HC also helps in his HR Prediction of 15.1%. Low cost bomb alert to help stack other big price Red Sox.
Twins Vs Yankees
Luke Voit – Yahoo $25
Voit is only in play on Yahoo today and has some weather risk but he is defiantly in a prime hitting spot with his matchup. Pineda surrenders an ISO .288 to RHB and that’s insane amount since Voit will only see to pitches here and huge power here displayed from him. Imaging him just making hardly and hard contact hitting this pitch about 325 ft averaged and low Whiff. He is getting extra batting practice today haha. He will be in my Yankee stack on Yahoo today for sure with a 19% HR prediction rate
