May 12th MLB DFS Starts
C William Contreras, St. Louis Cardinals at Milwaukee Brewers ($5,700 – DraftKings)
William Contreras in his last game went 1-2 with a double in the win against the Cardinals yesterday. Contreras is leading the Brewers offense right now with a .342 batting average and with 30 RBIs.
Contreras is becoming a star for the Brewers lineup and is helping them lead the division. If you are a fantasy owner and want to win an MLB DFS game today, then William Contreras should be in your lineup now.
1B Mark Canha, Houston Astros at Detriot Tigers($4,800)
In a win against the Astros, Mark Canha delivered a grand slam against Houston’s pitching. While the average for Canha is down, he is helping the team with clutch hits and great moments.
Canha is giving the Tigers his all with 20 RBIs, and six home runs for the season so far. The Tigers bats are hot right now and Canha could deliver again for your MLB DFS teams on this Mother’s Day.
OF Teoscar Hernandez, Los Angeles Dodgers at. San Diego Padres($5,100)
In the win against the Padres yesterday, Teoscar Hernandez went 1-4 with a grand slam for the win. Hernandez is leading the Dodgers in home runs right now and is a hot bat for your MLB DFS fantasy teams.
The underrated presence of Teoscar Hernandez in the lineup is immense due to his power. The Dodgers slugger has been excellent this weekend and could help your DFS teams today on Mother’s Day.
May 12th MLB DFS Sits
SP Justin Verlander, Houston Astros at Detriot Tigers($8,500)
In a brutal loss against the Yankees, Justin Verlander gave up seven runs, including three home runs, in a brutal outing. While he is still elite, Verlander has been struggling for the past two seasons and is showing a decline.
The statistics for Verlander are not favorable with a 4.43 ERA for the season. Verlander’s stats and recent failure should have him on the bench for your MLB DFS today.
OF Yordan Alvarez, Houston Astros at Detroit Tigers ($5,500 – DraftKings)
In the loss against the Detroit Tigers, Yordan Alvarez went 1-4 with only a hit and has struggled this weekend. With only one RBI driven in the weekend, is a warning sign that the Astros’ struggles are deeper.
Alvarez has been decent for fantasy teams this season but is underperforming to his expectations. If there is no improvement to his power numbers, he could be sitting down for your MLB DFS games today.
OF Corbin Carroll Arizona Diamondback at.Baltimore Orioles ($5,000 – DraftKings)
Corbin Carroll’s season has been a nightmare for him in his sophomore season. With the pennant win last season, the Diamondbacks have been disappointing but Carroll is not performing at all.
Corbin Carroll has been struggling at the plate this weekend with no hits. If I were a MlB DFS player today, Carroll would be last on my starts until he figures something out.
May 12th MLB DFS Best Stack
For this Mother’s Day stack of the day, there is a great chance that the duo stack of William Contreras and Willy Adames. With the Cardinals being a complete disaster this season, the Brewers bats will have fun today. Adames went 3-4 Friday against the Cardinals and could have another good day. The Milwaukee duo will hit well today against the Cardinals pitching.
William Contreras is one of the stars in today’s game due to his power and contact hitting. Willy Adames is a lock for today because of his power with seven home runs Contreras and Adames are the hottest bats for the Brewers and could give fantasy owners wins today.
