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.

Yordan Alvarez
Potential Bid: $5.00
Break-Even Point: 34th
If you’re new to Jock MKT, you may be struggling to read what’s listed below the Alvarez recommendation. Essentially, I’m willing to spend up to $5.00 per share for him. He needs to finish 34th 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 Alvarez at $5.00 and he finishes 34th in this field, I make my $5.00 back. If he finishes 1st, I win $25 (profit $20.00). If he finishes last, I win $1 (lose $4.00). It’s that simple.

Alvarez and the left-handed Astros are in a fantastic spot on Sunday against Jonathan Heasley and the Royals. Heasley has been one of the worst pitchers in baseball this season to lefties allowing over a .400 wOBA and striking them out under 15% of the time. We know Yordan is the best lefty in this lineup and he owns monster splits vs righties since the start of last season — including a .391 wOBA. Houston has the highest team total on the board today, and there is a strong case for Alvarez to be the top-overall bat. I would consider pairing him with a few other cheaper Astros bats as well.
