Milwaukee Brewers
The Brewers are going to be very popular tonight, but it’s for good reason. First off they are at home in a fantastic hitter’s park and come in with an implied run total set at 5.39, which is highest on the slate. Second, they are up against Homer Bailey , who is giving up a .371 wOBA to lefties this season, along with allowing 2.09 HR/9. Those are some seriously bad numbers and with the lefty power hitters the Brewers have, they have some massive home run upside tonight. They are decently expensive tonight, but the issue will come from how popular they are on this 10-game slate. Eric Thames .293 ISO. Jesus Aguilar .288 ISO. Travis Shaw .248 ISO.

Minnesota Twins
The Twins are facing off against Lucas Giolito , who is giving up over 1.39 HR/9 to both lefties and righties this season, along with a 37% fly ball rate or higher to both types of hitters. Targeting a fly ball pitcher who is struggling with home runs is always a solid call, especially since he is struggling right now, as he has allowed 10 earned runs in his last two starts. There are some nice salary savers on the Twins side of things, so you should have plenty of money left over for another stack or a high-end pitcher. Also, the Twins aren’t too expensive on FanDuel tonight, so you should look to stack them over there. Eddie Rosario .260 ISO. Jorge Polanco .228 ISO. Miguel Sano .219 ISO. Bobby Wilson .200 ISO.

Oakland Athletics
The Athletics come in with an implied run total set at 4.98, which is high, considering they are at home in a solid pitcher’s park. That must mean they are in a great spot to score runs against a bad pitcher, right? That pitcher is fan favorite Bartolo Colón , who is giving up a whopping 2.47 HR/9 to righties this season, which comes from his 35% fly ball rate and a 43% hard contact rate. We all know how good the Athletics have been as of late, so they might be popular even with this being a west coast game in a favorable pitchers park. Regardless, they have the power and upside to make a solid stacking option tonight. Matt Olson .310 ISO. Khris Davis .308 ISO. Matt Chapman .232 ISO. Chad Pinder .213 ISO. Jed Lowrie .209 ISO.
