Stacking has become a prime way to take down big tournaments, as well as giving your cash game team a solid floor. We focus on opposing pitcher stats, Vegas, weather, park factors, team stats, salaries, and player stats when deciding the top three stacks of the night. I know. Shocker we look at those things. If there is a Coors game on the slate, we will mostly divert our attention elsewhere, as Coors games are the obvious stacks of the night. It doesn't need much breaking down. Be sure to check out or revamped Stack Generator and Stack features inside our Lineup Optimizer and Tools.

After throwing seven scoreless innings last time out against Milwaukee, Bartolo Colon had us stackers ready for war. I hardly doubt he goes out and does the same tonight. If he does, NFL season research comes early. Colon has a 6.77 ERA and 4.99 xFIP this season, with a 43.7% groundball rate. Colon has allowed a .367 wOBA to lefties and a .390 wOBA to right-handers. The hard-contact comes against the lefties (41.9%), which is everyone here outside of Edwin Encarnacion. Colon has a 13% strikeout rate against both sides of the plate. Colon is one of, if not, the weakest arms on the slate, and Cleveland's offense has a ton of upside. Ramirez, Bruce, and Encarnacion all have over a .200 ISO against right-handers this season. Francisco Lindor has a .310 wOBA and .197 ISO. Jason Kipnis has been slow going or injured this season, but has notable numbers against right-handers when healthy. Outside of Coors, this is the first stack I am looking at. Target Field is actually a favorable hitters park in warm weather.
