Ben’s Daily MLB DraftKings Plays – 9/8/23

Ben's MLB Daily DraftKings Plays

BEN’S DAILY FANTASY INTRO

What’s up, 4DEEP?! I’m going to keep this simple and sweet, it’s the last big slate before NFL Sunday and idk about you, but I want a big fat bankroll going into it! We have 11 games and plenty of options, so let’s get weird!

PITCHERS

  1. Blake Snell DK $10,800 – Has been the best pitcher in the league this year and is going to be unowned because of the matchup and price.  Love him for large field GPPs.
  2. Kodai Senga DK $10,000 – Will be the chalk, and for good reason.  Senga has had a fantastic year and now arguably has his best matchup of the season.  Love him in this spot.
  3. Hunter Brown DK $8,600 – I love targeting the Padres, and who better to do it with than Brown? He will be low owned due to his last start and he easily has 25-30 DK points upside.
  4. Luis Severino DK $5,500 – Don’t love him here, but I do love his price.  Would prefer a little better matchup, but I can’t pass up on this price. He has 30-point upside every time he takes the mound and you aren’t going to find that anywhere else.

STACKS

  1. Braves – Always Braves and they have had success against Keller earlier this season. 1-9 all in play with Olson and Harris being my favorites.
  2. Rangers – Blackburn has been better as of late, but a blowup game is coming and this A’s bullpen is still awful. Seager, Garver, Lowe, Carter, and Duran are who we want.
  3. Mets – Will continue to stack against Kuechel, and I always prefer lefties when stacking the Mets. Nimmo, Lindor, Alonso, and Alvarez all profile the best here.
  4. Orioles – Great hitting environment for this one and Houck really struggles against lefties, which this lineup is full of. Santander, Gunnar, Rutschman, and O’Hearn are all in play.  If you have the salary, I’m fine with Mullins, also.
  5. Marlins – I know they let us down last Friday night and then Saturday blew their load and would have been the winning stack on most slates.  But, we get this lineup against another lefty and I can’t help myself. 1-6 all in play here with Burger and Gurriel being the top bats.
