 We've got 12 games on Tuesday nights main a daily fantasy baseball Slate and a lot of times when you've got that many games You've got a lot of options in a similar tier who could all produce similar upside and I feel it's night That's not actually the case where I feel really good about one pitcher being above the pack You know being a standout even relative to 23 other pitchers there are a couple stacks I feel like are in a similar spot where they potentially could separate from the field So a bit of a unique slate in that regard where I do kind of want to narrow things down and focus on Those pitchers and stacks I think can separate we'll run through which stacks those are which pitches like most which guy I think could run away from the field and get you ready for Tuesday night in and I'll be DFS Welcome on into the solo shop That's right here on the fan dual podcast network and fan dual research our brand new site on fan dual comm slash Research my name is Jim Suss. I am a managing editor of digital media for fan dual research here to break down The 12-game main slate for Tuesday with locks up for 705 p.m. Eastern For today whether on this slate there is a chance of rain in Washington for the Nationals and the Rockies Especially early it should clear out eventually But it is one to monitor in New York for the Mets and the Yankees rain is likely early though It may clear out later on they might have to have a late start But they could play after that potentially depending on the timing of that rain in Boston for the Red Sox and Braves There's a chance of rain though doesn't look too bad right now So check back on that one later and it is 92 degrees in Minneapolis for the twins and the Mariners Humidity not terrible, but still very good hitting weather So I'd upgrade batters and downgrade pitchers for the twins and the Mariners We'll dive on into top pitching options and more here in just one second First day reminder to make sure you're subscribed to the number fire daily fantasy podcast feed wherever you get your podcast It is still called the number fire daily fantasy podcast because number fire still exists Just our content is in a new place right now solo shot Heat check all that all will stay in the same place and solo shot will still be going up over on the Fandall YouTube page And over on the Fandall TV plus app on Amazon fire Apple TV and Roku devices Make sure you find the solo shot wherever you consume that we will have a PGA DFS podcast on the podcast feed Later on today previewing the 3m open We've got some exciting news over at number fire beginning now You can find all the number fire content from the analysts You know over at a new home called Fandall research Fandall research is on the Fandall domain I mean you can now do your own research on the same site where you play spats and submit daily fantasy lineups And don't worry all the number fire tools are still in place over at number fire calm It's your daily process can remain the same for now as I thank you for all your years of loyalty We'll be running free rolls over on Fandall research now through the end of the NFL season to check out This week's free play on the women's World Cup go to the fan Welcome to Fandall research article over on Fandall research again Be sure to check out all the great content while you're there again That's fandall.com and slash research to find it and the welcome to Fandall research article has a link to the free roll For the US versus Netherlands talk through that match with Dr. Ed Feng last night on covering the spread got his read on it and talked about Some bets he may like over there as well That's on the covering the spread podcast feed the Fandall YouTube page and fandall TV plus as well So again podcast stuff remains the exact same same schedules the same Where you get it is the same just all of number fires content now going up over on fandall calm the slash research as opposed to number fire Com you can still find the heat map Projections all in the same place at number fire for right now Pitching preview for this Tuesday main slate Blake snail checks in with the highest salary on Fandall at $11,000 followed by Andrea Abed at 10 8 we got Mero Kelly checking in at $10,500 followed by Corbin Burns at 10 3 Pablo Lopez Sourius 10,000 George Kirby a 99 rematch of last week for them Charlie Morton checks in 97 with Justin Verlander at 96 We got Aaron Savalli at 93 Chris Bassett is 92 with Alex Cobb Julio Rias JP France Kyle Hendricks Domingo Ehrman and Michael Kopeck as the others at $8,000 are higher now I was on Blake's now last week and it didn't go well because he walked seven batters in five innings against the blue Jays and That was not ideal drove his mother's pitch count didn't let him get deep in the game didn't get a lot of strikeouts But Snell still allowed just one and run in that game the results were still good and I'll be back on him once again tonight Despite the seven walks again just one earned run and part of that's luck because that's a lot of base runners You don't expect to allow just one run in that situation but it's also an indication of Things Snell has been doing really well recently Over his past nine starts Snell has been throwing fewer forcing fastballs and more curveballs and in that time He has a 40% strikeout rate, which is awesome. You love strikeouts But he's also allowing just a 22 percent hard hit rate He has not had a single game with a hard hit rate of 40 percent in any of those games Which is so so tough to do especially when not let me have balls a lot of balls of play because you're getting a lot of strikeouts That's why Snell's ERA in this time is 0.69 Nobody right now is on his level in that regard with tons of strikeouts and no hard contact allowed Snell space in the Pirates tonight. They have a 93 WRC plus against lefties with a 24 percent strikeout rate It is a good matchup for a lefty I have Snell projected for 9.4 strikeouts tonight, which is a massive number for my projections But I buy it I think he has to be the top guy on this slate and the combo of strikeouts with soft contact is tough to match so to me We're looking for pitchers who can separate on a big slate Blake Snell is that guy for tonight? So to me Blake Snell needs to be our top pitcher in MLB DFS on Tuesday night after Snell I Think I have to put Corbin burns second He's at home against the Reds, which is definitely not a fun matchup But it seems like Burns is getting back to his old form and I think we should consider him here at $10,300 Burns has had back-to-back starts of double digit strikeouts And that includes a game where he had 13 and that 13 strikeout game came against the Reds Which means they did see him back on July 14th, which is pretty recent. They also saw him on July 7th So this will be the third time the Reds have seen Burns in 18 days That is a big downgrade because familiarity to me at least does matter a lot It helps though when the guys overpowered that team when he's seen them He had an 18.6 percent swinging strike rate the second time they faced him They also faced him back on June 2nd and he had a Burns had a 15 percent swinging strike rate in that game as well So they know what he's throwing throwing they've seen him three times already But they haven't been able to hit it as of yet Burns has been throwing more curveballs his past 12 stars in that time 28% strikeout rate, which is paired with a 29 percent hard hit rate. It's not quite snails level But it's still very good. It's hard to match what snail has done I think that the low hard contact allowed does help burns his case quite a bit if If the the opponent were as familiar with burns as the Reds are I do think you could consider putting burns in Snell's tier, but That's not the case. They are very familiar with him. So I can't do that So to me, I feel okay putting burns second I think he's good enough to overcome those circumstances But to me that's why there is a legitimate gap between Snell and Burns Just given how many times the Reds have seen burns, especially recently for the value play I'm gonna wind up on Domingo Ehrman. He is definitely not a guy. I feel great about he's erratic He could get ejected at any point for using sticky stuff. So that's not fun But he's a path upside and I think that's enough to consider him here at $8,200 Ehrman is facing the Mets, which is a tough matchup They have a 112 WRC plus against righties with a low strikeout rate in the high walk rate And I very rarely use guys facing this team But Ehrman is really solid. In 18 starts this year his skill interactive ERA is 4.02 with a 25% strikeout rate He's had some really bad starts and those have pushed his ERA up to 4.52 and That could happen again tonight because again, he's erratic and it's especially possible given it's a tough matchup but Ehrman has a path to a really nice game and it's hard to turn down when his salary is $8,200. So he's dicey. He's not fun, but after Snell, I don't mind giving him a look I think that Burns has passed to disappointment too So for $8,200 you could do a lot worse than Ehrman And I think that he's kind of in the same tier for me as Burns where it's Snell gap burns Ehrman fighting out for that second slot on FanDuel. Fortunately, I will talk about Pablo Lopez and George Kirby in things to watch later on. First Let's dive into the stacks and go back to that Padres game because I think both sides the both both Aspects the Padres very fun for tonight The offense is facing Rich Hill and the Padres have had a bad year But they fit lefties really really well and I think they should continue to do that tonight Hill has a 4.84 ERA overall this year So clearly not a great season and it hasn't been trending the right way either Hill has been leaning more in his cutter over his past 12 starts with fewer sliders and in that time the skill interactive ERA is 4.93 his ERA is 5.14 and the bad of all data is not great with a 40% of hard hit rate allowed That's despite having a pretty no good number of solid matchups in that time We did see Hill face the Padres back on June 27th He was fine that game but a forward runs and six innings But they did have a 43% of hard hit rate in that game That success there makes sense because the Padres have a 129 a WRC plus against lefties Which is the best mark on the slate. They have a 213 isa which ranks second So I'm not gonna stack against Hill all the time because he's fine But again this kind of team I will definitely be here So the Padres to me the top stack on the main slate by a pretty decent margin Hassan Kim double-dong last night. I think that he has to be one of the better value values in the site This was true even before he went off last night But he's been getting lead off against righties which says the Padres trust him and want him in that spot Which is a good thing and when you put him against the lefty his ISO goes up to 248 with a 46% fly ball rate He's got really good plate discipline data and he will steal against lefties too. So Might feel a bit point-chasing to go Hassan Kim after the night he had last night, but I think it's the correct move So Hassan Kim to me is going to be one of the focal points for tonight and I'll be DFS given He has two sources of upside and is batting at a good spot in the order $2,900 he just kind of checks every box now. We talked about the Nationals on yesterday's podcast and they wound up being fine They scored six runs mostly coming late in that game, but I think they're on the map once again today They're facing Austin Gomber. Gomber is still struggling and it's the point where I think we should stack against him on the road as well But to come Gomber's credit. It seems like he's starting to trend back up a bit over his past nine starts He's been going back to his slider again and his skill interactive ERA in that time is down to 4.61 He's not walking anybody, which is great. So there have been signs of improvement but not walking anybody also means Gomber's letting up a lot of balls-in-play and that's where he runs into issues because he's still letting up a 45% hard hit rate in this time that's why Gomber's let up 10 home runs in this band and The road starts for him even when he's left course field haven't been great. He's left 11 earned runs across 20 innings so Gomber's getting better and that's good. I I like Gomber a lot I've used him in daily fantasy back in the day when he had that really good like half season So I want to get back to where he was but The results even on the road have not been perfect. He's letting him too much hard contact He's facing the Nationals tonight who have a 110 at WRC plus against lefty So I think they do make sense to stack tonight So the Nationals to me going to be number two and third straight to show talking Nationals It feels weird, but I think it is correct here once again within those Nationals stacks We got stone Garrett. He typically bats in the middle of the order against lefties And he has good power marks against lefties, but as with all platoon guys We had to do some digging to make sure Garrett doesn't leave early for pinch hitters because that robs the plate appearances and that can have a big impact on upside but Garrett typically stays in for the entire game. He has finished each of his past six starts He has not left to start before the eighth inning since back on June 6 So at twenty six hundred dollars, I think that Garrett is a mighty fine value play for tonight got some power Has some upside and I think he's very much worth turning to here So stone Garrett to me a really good way to make a getting to Blake Snell getting to Fernando Tates and your Snell line ups A whole lot easier Finally the Guardians offense has been looking much better recently The WRC plus is back up to 99 against righties and it's been below that pretty much all year I think I've seen enough where we can consider them for stacking once again I'm hoping to doing that today They're facing Zach Renke the Guardians are Renke still struggling right now He came out the IL last week and face the Tigers and just one strike out across four innings Let up two and runs in that game and it was his first start off the IL But Renke was struggling before that too. He's made ten starts if you were cutters and in that time Renke has a five point seven six era Let it three home runs in one of those games let up two and another and he's largely gotten beaten up by Better offense than this and he did face Cleveland in this time And he let it just two or two runs across six innings, but Cleveland has been much better recently They've been on the the the incline for a bit their WRC plus the past month is up to 107 with a 151 ISO and they run a bunch so the Guardians are not a team we've discussed often on this show for good reason because they've been pretty awful from a batting perspective, but I Do think that they are back in the crosshairs and a team I feel okay stacking for tonight Granky has been getting hit pretty hard by lefties specifically with a much higher ISO allowed to them And that's good for a lot of the Guardians guys But I like it most for Andres Jimenez Jimenez Trending up recently much better batted ball day to the past month and much better results. He is still running so This is not a team We've been on often But I'm flying being on them for tonight in between the Guardians the Nationals and the Padres I feel like we are the Guardians of the Nationals I think we'll have enough value here to use now while also stacking the Padres getting to the guys We like in that Padres team and Hassan Kim being key fo a focal point of that with his low salary So even though Snell salary is high. I still think we can stack him with his teammates for tonight Let's go now to things to watch if not for the repeat match up in the weather I would be down to consider Pablo Lopez and George Kirby tonight They did just face these teams last week though Kirby facing the twins Lopez against the Mariners and both guys pitched well But again familiarity does matter quite a bit and it's super hot Minneapolis 92 degrees It's not advantageous enough where I'm gonna stack against them obviously, you know We're not going that far with the weather But I do think it's worthwhile to push them down a peg or two as a result of familiarity and weather I Don't really want to stack the Giants tonight because it is pretty warm out east and it's never warm in San Francisco But they're facing Ken Waldechuck Waldechuck lets up a lot of hard contact walks a lot of guys So I think they're at least viable and I'm good at being on them for tonight despite the fact there are Pretty big downsides and go in there Finally Owen White is likely starting for the Rangers tonight He's facing the Astros if he does and I thought they would get your Don Alvarez back last night But sounds like it'll be either today or tomorrow instead, which is a little bit concerning I guess personally But if Alvarez is back I would upgrade the Astros and potentially consider stacking them if he's not back They're okay for one offs But not a ton of appeal beyond that Alvarez does make a big difference for this Astros team So consider that when deciding whether or not stack ends white for tonight Let's finish up here the Dinger calls for today the boring one Fernando Tatis Jr. Facing off with Rich Hill Tatis They'll obliterate most pitchers, but especially lefties so getting him against the lefty I don't got to go there So Fernando Tatis Jr. is the boring home run call for tonight on this Dinger Tuesday the fun one Let's go stone Garrett stone Garrett facing off again against the lefty doesn't leave the game early So if we don't get a home run early on we could get a chance later Again third consecutive day with a Nationals batter in the Dinger calls, but Lane Thomas came through Jamer Condolario came through last night too. So trying to go three for three three beat here with stone Garrett as a fun Home run call so the Dinger Tuesday home run calls here on the solo shot are Fernando Tatis Jr. And stone Garrett That's what we got here for today on the solo shot as mentioned We are back here on the number fire daily fantasy podcast feed Later on today to break down the 3m open for PGA DFS with myself and Brandon You do love make sure you're subscribed to the number fire daily fantasy podcast feed to get that as it goes up If you like what you hear leave us a five star rating on Apple podcasts or Spotify again check out the end will calm It's last research check out a fandal research again all the same content there value plays MLB betting guides MLB DFS helpers all that over now on fandal research projections still in the same place So check it out.
