JRueb’s MLB DFS Hitter Breakdown(4/9)

Let’s get into it!

Studs:

Mike Trout: Its difficult not to write up Trout as a priority spend up today. This feels like a slate where Mike Trout will approach 50%+ ownership in cash games. The Angels sport the highest team total on the slate today. The Blue Jays have yet to announce a starter, which is never a good sign. I will be jamming Trout into my cash game and GPP lineups.

Jose Ramirez: It’s a contract year for Jose and he has been in mid season form to begin the year. Jose has a ton of power from the left side and Teheran has been historically bad versus lefties throughout his entire career. I want to ride the hot streak of Jose Ramirez!

Value:

Tommy Pham: The Padres head to Texas and get a massive ballpark upgrade. The Texas weather is a great hitting environment early in the season when most of the mid-west and east coast is cold and very wet. Pham will continue to leadoff for the Padres with Grisham is out. He doesn’t have Tatis hitting behind him right now, but I still love Pham at this price.

Jared Walsh: I want to be invested in the Angels today. I am currently projecting Walsh to hit second for the Angels today. With the protection of Trout, Walsh should see plenty of good pitches. With Trout hitting behind him and a high team total, I expect Walsh to hit value if he’s able to get on base today.

Stacks:

Angels: Walsh-Trout-Rendon-Upton

Indians: Ramirez-Rosario-Reyes-Naylor

Astros: Altuve-Bregman-Gurriel-Correa

1% Dong: Gurriel/Upton
