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.
We have ourselves a full slate that's filled with aces, monster moneyline favorites and juicy totals. We also don't have a game a Coors Field. The result is a fun GPP night that should feature diverse lineups and a lack of chalk. I love nights like tonight because your hand isn't forced off of your favorite stacks due to crazy ownership. The stacks below are my three favorites, not the three best that factor in game theory because there isn't an obvious fade (ala Coors Field when it features a huge total and the pitching options are rubbish).
Two of the stacks below could be deemed somewhat stealth choices. The reasoning is that the game totals are only seven runs. Thankfully, you, the DFC reader, is wise enough to know that game totals mean very little, and team over/under totals tell the true story. Those who aren't checking team totals could be suckered into believing my second and third favorite stacks make for bad plays due to the low game total, and that creates an edge for those loading up on bats from those stacks. All three of the teams highlighted below feature a team over/under total of 4.5 runs or higher, so oddsmakers clearly support my assertion the following offenses will score runs and supply fantasy points to the gamers who stack them.
Option 1
Blue Jays v Tigers - Game Total of 9.5
