Stacking in DFS MLB is such an important concept if you’re looking to take down a big tournament on FanDuel or DraftKings. It’s also a good way to diversify cash games because the variance in baseball can mean wild swings (ahem) in the scoring on a particular slate. The concept is easy. You want to pile players from one or two teams into your lineups because those guys compound scores by helping each other score runs when the going is good.

Stack Targets

Colorado Rockies vs. Adam Morgan (Phillies)
Park - Coors Field

While I usually don't mention the Coors game in the stacks article due to it's obvious nature, Adam Morgan calls for drastic measures. Adam Morgan is one of the absolute worst pitchers in the league and I will truthfully be surprised if he makes it out of the 3rd or 4th inning without getting pulled. Not only has Morgan been bad against righties, however, as he has held a wOBA that is just as bad against left handers. My favorite 5 would be Nolan Arenado, Carlos Gonzalez, Ryan Raburn, Trevor Story and Charlie Blackmon. That being said, every hitter in the lineup will be in serious consideration for both cash games and tournaments. Make sure you get some exposure to this offense as I promise this will not be one of those time where the Rockies get shut out against an average pitcher in Coors Field.

Minnesota Twins vs. Chi Chi Gonzalez (Rangers)
Park - Arlington Park

Moving on to some of the sneakier stacks, we will look at the Minnesota Twins facing off the man, the myth, the legend, Chi Chi Gonzalez. Chi Chi has been horrible since entering the majors with a .382 combined wOBA and while you may think he is due for some positive regression, his peripherals actually suggest the opposite. The Twins on the other hand, have hit righties well this season and will improve their numbers now that Miguel Sano is back and hitting the ball well. My top hitters from the team are going to be Miguel Sano, Brian Dozier, Eduardo Nunez, Robbie Grossman and Kennys Vargas, in that order. While the other do have upside, I think those 5 work the best together with power and speed combinations.
