Here are projected scores for tonight’s DFS pitchers – June 6, 2019 using FanDuel and DraftKings scoring.
- King of the Hill
- For the early games Verlander is king on FanDuel but for some reason he’s not listed on DraftKings.
- For this evening’s main slate it is Corbin.
- My pick tonight is Happ (NYY)
- The Blue Jays at home vs. LHP have a 0.256 wOBA (worst in MLB, 0.136 ISO (7th worst) and strikeouts 26.8% of the time (5th worst).
- His last 3 home starts: 2.35 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 15 striekouts in 15.1 innings.
- Stackables (in order of my preference)
- Early: Astros, Cubs and Royals.
- Main: Yankees, Twins and Angels.
- Small sample size alert! Milone (SEA), Anderson (SFG), Weber (BOS) and Jackson (TOR) have each faced less than 100 batters this season and Lambert (COL) is making his season debut.
- NOTES:
- The 3:40pm ET Seattle @ Houston game is not available on DraftKings.

My Method
Matchup Rating is meant to show how the pitcher’s matchup relates to league average. A rating of 100 means that this matchup is neither good nor bad to the pitcher. A matchup over 100 favors the pitcher and conversely, a matchup up less than 100 favors the hitters. It takes into account:
- The pitcher’s wOBA, ISO and K%
- The opposing lineup’s wOBA, ISO and K% versus RHP/LHP
- Home/away splits
- Ballpark Factor
- Fantasy points allowed to starting pitchers by opposing lineup (link)
If you are looking for bats to stack take a look at the pitchers at the bottom of this list and where the Matchup Rating is below 90. While not always the case, typically when a pitcher scores a low total (perhaps even negative) that means they are probably getting lit up by the opposing lineup.
