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.

Jake Lamb, Los Angeles Dodgers
Projected Rank: 22nd
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.

Los Angeles will be no secret tonight in Coors Field against Jose Urena, but maybe we can find some value in Lamb with him ranking outside the top-20 in the pre-rank. Obviously we are always looking to target Coors, but the Dodgers own an absurd 7 run team total tonight. Jose Urena looks completely washed, and has pitched to a 5.18 xERA. He’s allowing a .382 wOBA to left-handed hitters over the last two seasons, so that is the side of the plate we really want to focus on when attacking him. Lamb has actually been quite good in a limited sample-size for LA, his .234 ISO is second on the team against right-handed pitching. That ISO is backed by a 27% line-drive rate and a 40% hard-hit rate…so he’s clearly seeing the ball well. Urena throws mainly sinkers, so these Dodgers bats should know what’s coming and this could be a long night for the Rockies bullpen. Colorado doesn’t have many lefties in the pen at all, so the pinch-hit risk is a bit lower here for Lamb as well. Overall, I want as much Dodgers as I can get tonight and Lamb will likely be one of the cheapest options in their lineup.
