SP:

Kevin Gausman, Blue Jays (DK: $9,300 | FD: $9,000)

Notes:

The DFS Hero Optimizer projects Gausman to be the top-scoring pitcher. He has a great matchup vs. the Angels and is an automatic play for me.

Stacks

New York Yankees vs. Colorado Rockies

Kansas City Royals vs. Philadelphia Phillies

Chicago White Sox vs. Detroit Tigers

Notes:

The optimizer projects the Yankees and Royals to be the top two scoring teams. The Yankees will be popular but there is a ton of value at the pitcher position to get them in your lineup. The Optimizer projects the White Sox to have the most stack value. They have a solid matchup and can take down a contest because of their low ownership.
