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.

Bo Bichette, Toronto Blue Jays
Projected Rank: 8th
Example: If I buy 1 share of Bichette at $9.00 and he finishes 14th in this field, I make my $9.00 back. If he finishes 1st, I win $25 (profit $16.00). If he finishes last, I win $1 (lose $8.00). It’s that simple.

Toronto got a huge win last night, thanks in part to a late George Springer grand slam, and that’s the type of game that can really propel a team moving forward. They are big favorites again tonight with Goldy/Arenado still missing from the Cardinals lineup and Kevin Gausman toeing the rubber. On top of being listed as big favorites, they have a huge five run implied team total against Adam Wainwright. Waino is still a respectable real-life pitcher, but his expected ERA is over a full run higher than his actual ERA suggesting that some regression is headed his way. He allows more power to right-handed batters at this point in his career, and power upside is exactly what we need when targeting these expensive hitters. Bichette doesn’t have as much raw power as someone like Vlad Jr or George Springer, but he’s hit 12 homers vs righties this season compared to just two vs lefties. He also matches up very well with Wainwright’s pitch-mix. His most-used pitch is his sinker, and Bichette owns a huge .248 ISO against the pitch. He’s my HR call tonight and I think he has tremendous upside in this spot.
