Here are projected scores for today’s DFS pitchers – July 12, 2019 using FanDuel and DraftKings scoring.
- King of the Hill – Vargas (NYM)… I know right, man these are strange days indeed.
- My Value Pick today is (against my better judgement) Vargas on the road against Miami
- Marlins vs. LH Starters at home have allowed them to average
- Marlins vs. LHP at home have a:
- 0.270 wOBA (Worst in MLB)
- 0.103 ISO (Worst in MLB)
- 22.2 K% (17th worst in MLB).
- Stackables (in order of my preference): Astros, Angels & Rockies
- Small sample size alert! Lamet (SDP) and Clevinger (CLE) have each faced less than 100 batters this season.

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.
