Hey there, sports fanatics! It's time to get your game face on because we've got a full slate of 15 games today. The first pitch is set to fly at 1:10 PM EST with the Rays taking on the Twins at Target Field. Let's dive right into the action! ⚾️

Batter Up: The Hottest DFS Batters Right Now

  • Leading the pack is Trea Turner, who's been on fire with 22 hits, 9 HRs, and 21 RBIs in his last 52 at-bats. He's set to face off against Spencer Strider, who's been struggling with a 3.89 ERA. Last time Strider took the mound, he gave up 6 runs on 6 hits. Turner's got a good shot at keeping his hot streak alive today. 🔥
  • Next up, we've got Ronald Acuna Jr., who's been smashing it with 21 hits, 8 HRs, and 18 RBIs in his last 66 at-bats. He's up against Cristopher Sanchez, who's got a decent 3.26 ERA. Sanchez didn't allow any runs in his last game, but Acuna Jr.'s recent form could pose a challenge.
  • Third on our list is Matt Olson, who's been racking up the stats with 21 hits, 8 HRs, and 16 RBIs in his last 59 at-bats. He's also facing Sanchez today, so it'll be interesting to see who comes out on top.
  • Kyle Schwarber rounds out our list with 16 hits, 7 HRs, and 10 RBIs in his last 51 at-bats. He's up against Strider, who's been having a tough time on the mound. Schwarber's got a good chance to add to his stats today.

And let's not forget Randal Grichuk of the LAA, who's been on a 10-game hit streak. Keep an eye on this guy! 👀

Game On: Today's DFS Showdowns You Can't Miss

Let's take a look at the matchups that are sure to get your adrenaline pumping today.

🔥 Rays 89-57 (-126) vs Twins 76-69 (+106) O/U 9.0

With the Rays' pitcher yet to be announced and the Twins' Dallas Keuchel boasting a 4.78 ERA, this game could be a high-scoring affair. The Twins lead the league in strikeouts, which could make for some exciting plays.

❄️ Cubs 78-68 (-183) vs Rockies 52-92 (+151) O/U 12.0

Jameson Taillon of the Cubs has been struggling, allowing an average of 5.5 runs per game. The Rockies' Ty Blach, with a 4.58 ERA, could take advantage of this and keep the score low.

The Angels are ranked #3 for home runs per game, and they're up against Luis Castillo, who has a solid 3.13 ERA. This could be a high-scoring game, making it one to watch.

Pick of the Day

My favorite pick of the day has to be the Angels at +250. With their home run stats and Castillo on the mound for the Mariners, this game has the potential to be a real run-fest. Get your popcorn ready! 🍿
