Welcome to another MLB DFS Game Theory for the 2021 season! This year we have a good amount of overlap between the NBA & MLB season, so there is lots of money to be made. This article will highlight my top plays at each position, and in the analysis portion of the article, we will highlight my top pitchers and stacks for the day.
Today is a small four game slate that doesn’t feature many pitching options at all. We really only have Pivetta/Alcantara/Matz as “decent” pitchers for our cash games, and even then, they are all in some shaky matchups. I would just side with Pivetta today for my cash games with his 3.16 ERA and 42:22 K:BB through 42.2 innings- which isn’t great but on a slate like this, these are decent numbers. Matz is fine but all over the place and with the Boston lineup that features JD Martinez and Xander Bogaerts, I’d be a bit scared for this spot in cash games. Overall, I would focus on the Dodgers and Braves for my bats, you should be able to fit them in with the value today (Odubel Herrera being one of my favorite value bats).
Good luck everyone!
