C Cal Raleigh, Houston Astros at. Seattle Mariners ($4,400 – DraftKings)

Cal Raleigh, while a little cold right now, could get some big hits today against the Astros. Raleigh in his last game, went 1-4 with a sacrifice fly, on Tuesday night. Raleigh this season has done well against the Astros with two home runs and four RBIs against them. 

Raleigh could do amazing against the Astros tonight and for your MLB DFS pool facing Houston horrid pitching. 

1B Anthony Rizzo, New York Yankees at Los Angeles Angels  ($4,500 – DraftKings)

The Bronx Bombers are having a revival this season, and Anthony Rizzo is the secret sauce to it all. Rizzo is having a comeback season with a .250 average, and seven home runs. In his last game, Rizzo went 1-4 against the Padres on Sunday night. 

This game against the Angels could spark a great match-up for Rizzo and fantasy users. With Rizzo’s power numbers against lefties, he could do well against Tyler Anderson. 

2B Luis Arraez, Miami Marlins at San Diego Padres (4,700 – DraftKings)

Luis Arraez could have another strong hitting game, with the Padres hitting doing well. Arraez on Monday went 1-4 against the Marlins pitching. Arraez is having another great season with a .333 batting average and 13 RBIs. 

With the Padres against the Marlins, this could be a fun game for Luis Arraez and MLB DFS owners. Arraez will have a good one against his former team today and for his fantasy owners.

P Justin Verlander, Houston Astros at. Seattle Mariners ($8,800 – DraftKings)

In a weird season for the Astros, Justin Verlander should be on the bench against the Mariners. Verlander in his last start went 6.0 innings, giving up two runs and striking out nine. While his previous start went well, it was against the hapless Athletics. 

Seattle could take advantage of this weak Astros pitching and Verlander could get ugly. Justin Verlander against a strong team could be on the bench for fantasy players.

1B Pete Alonso, Los Angeles  at New York Mets  ($5,100 – DraftKings)

The Mets have been a roller coaster of pain for fans this season. Pete Alonso has been struggling this season for the Mets, with his weak numbers. In the double-header against the Dodgers Alonso went 2-4 in game one and 0-4 in game two. 

The Mets slugger has been poor and even with 12 home runs, his low batting average isn’t helping. MLB DFS players should have Alonso sit until there is improvement.

2B Jeff McNeil, Los Angeles  at New York Mets  ($3,000 – DraftKings)

Another Met that has been damaging the team with his performance is Jeff McNeil this season. McNeil is again having issues with a weak .229 batting average. In the double-header, McNeil was hitless in both games, against the Dodgers. 

Again McNeil is dealing with something right now because this is not normal. Fantasy players should not touch McNeil until he has proven something because this is unacceptable. 

 

May 29th MLB DFS Best Stack

The best MLB DFS stack for this Wednesday will be tonight for the Seattle Mariners of Julio Rodriguez, Cal Raleigh, and J.P. Crawford. Julio Rodriguez was a crucial player in the Mariners’ win against the Astros with a strong 1-4 performance against them. Rodriguez could have a strong game with the Mariners facing a weak pitching core. 

Another player in this stack is Cal Raleigh. Raleigh is a starter for today’s MLB DFS and should be on a stack against the Astros. Houston’s pitching has been a disaster and Raleigh has gotten two home runs against them. Raleigh could get another strong game against the Astros pitching

The last player for this stack is J.P. Crawford who had a good game against the Astros. J.P. had a decent game against the Astros on Tuesday with a 1-4 game. Crawford has done well against the Astros in this series and could do again.

This MLB DFS stack will win you a lot of money on tonight’s DraftKings pools and more for your fantasy teams before the end of a long May.
