Welcome to MLB GPP Stacking & Ownership. In this article I will give you three options to stack. Remember that winning a GPP isn't always about maximizing points but instead maximizing some form of points and ownership. As always, plays will be listed from favorite to least favorite of the stack.
Tonight we have two bad pitchers dueling off in Coors, which is easily the best game of the night. As mentioned above, the best game of the night isn't always the best game to win GPP tournaments with.
I am not calling that the game is low scoring; I am just suggesting that stacking that game, you will be competing with 40% of the field that has similar combinations. To give you an idea, in a 20,000 person GPP that means you are competing with 8,000 players. If Coors fails you are now only competing with 12,000 players instead of 20,000 players.
The Coors fade makes sense tonight because there is only one elite arm on the mound, Gerritt Cole. That means there will be plenty of value to go around to gain an edge and be able to stack Coors.
Disclaimer – Coors game is the best game tonight to predict a high amount of fantasy output however this does not mean GPP success. By fading you put yourself ahead of the field if the game doesn't go crazy
Without further ado lets get into the non-Coors stacks tonight.

This is less about picking on a pitcher and more picking on a situation and scenario. By fading Coors we are missing out on explosive offenses in an explosive park. We need to gain traction someplace else and the Dodgers are where ...
