Jock MKT is fun new way to play DFS. In this article, I’ll break down what Jock MKT is and my favorite MLB buys for tonight’s slate.
What Is Jock MKT?
The simplest way to outline this is daily fantasy sports meets the stock market. You’ll purchase shares of players for varying amounts, depending on how much others are willing to pay for them during the IPO. Once the Live Trading starts, you can buy players that others want to sell or sell your players during the game. Once all of the games have ended, you will receive money based on how well your player performs compared to the field on the Jock MKT app for the night.

6/19/22 Top Buy
Daulton Varsho, Arizona Diamondbacks
Potential Bid: $6.50
Break-Even Point: 25th
If you’re new to Jock MKT, you may be struggling to read what’s listed below the Varsho recommendation. Essentially, I’m willing to spend up to $6.50 per share for him. He needs to finish 25th in the field for me to make my money back with the opportunity for me to make more if he finishes higher.
For example, if I buy 1 share of Varsho at $6.50 and he finishes 25th in this field, I make my $6.50 back. If he finishes 1st, I win $25 (profit $18.50). If he finishes last, I win $1 (lose $5.50). It’s that simple.

I liked Varsho a lot yesterday which didn’t exactly work out, but we can comfortably go back to the well tonight against Chris Archer. Archer allows above-average hard-hits and power to left-handed batters and Varsho continues to have one of the better ISO numbers in this lineup against right-handed pitching. Arizona owns just under a 5 implied run total for today, so getting the highest-upside exposure to the lineup is important and that typically comes with the power of Varsho. There is also a strong chance that we get him at a cheaper number than this, because of his recent struggles at the plate. This is the perfect match-up for him to burst out of this slump and he is my favorite buy on Sunday.
