Welcome to the first edition of Sriracha’s MLB Game Theory. In this article, I will outline my favorite plays at each position for MLB’s Saturday Slate. You can find all of Karma’s staff cores through our MLB Premium Package . Without further ado, here’s my favorite plays at each position.
| Pitcher | 1B | 2B | 3B | SS | OF |
| McCullers | Moreland | Alberto | Devers | Anderson | J.D. Martinez |
| Clevinger (FD Main) | Muncy | Peraza | Tsutugo | Polanco | Benintendi |
| Minor | Hoskins | K. Wong | Bregman | DeJong | Cruz |
| Wood | Sano | Altuve | Donaldson | Iglesias | Santander |
| Keuchel |
*If you don’t already play 3 lineups and 3 max entry contests daily, try using the teams provided in the stacks above to maximize upside and correlation in your MLB lineups.
Slate Thoughts:
Due to the differential in slates on FanDuel and Draftkings I will just be listing my main stacks below-
Boston Red Sox vs Alex Cobb- 6 run O/U Team Total
Prioritizing Benintendi, JD, Devers, Peraza. Love Verdugo and JBJ to be lower owned as well.
Los Angeles Dodgers vs Logan Webb- 6 run O/U Team Total
I think they could be lower owned especially guys like Seager, Bellinger and even Turner. Muncy should see the highest ownership out of all of them due to recency bias.
Minnesota Twins vs Keuchel- 5 run O/U Total
This team is filled with lefty smashers, love Sano, Cruz, Donaldson and Polanco has upside for pop and speed.
Cincinnati Reds vs Nova (FD MAIN slate)
Moustakas, Winker, Votto and Suarez are my targets here.
Cleveland Indians vs Singer (FD Main slate)
Santana, Lindor, Cesar Hernandez all in play here. Singer has never started a game above Double A and when he did start he saw his success drop a bit, evident by the spike in ERA and FIP.
That is all from me today! The slates are a bit different on both sites making it harder for me to break it down, but if you have any individual questions please let me know by messaging me on discord or twitter, @srirachadfs
